Hello Valentine Seekers!

I’d like to introduce you to my favorite of my characters—English lord, renowned classical pianist…and a vampire since 1659, the year before Charles II was restored to the throne of England.
the-summoning-manMorgan Gabriel D’Arcy is 6’2” with long blond hair and British blue eyes. I used to hope I’d meet someone like him (minus the vampire bit).  He is svelte, sexy, sensual, and just generally yummy.  He loves the ladies to a fault.

Now, I’ll let him have the stage and tell you about himself.

 

MorganHullo and welcome to Morgan on a half-shell.  I was born in the year of our Lord 1634, became the Earl of St. Averil in 1645 when my father perished fighting with the Royalist army at the Battle of Naseby.  My ancestral home, Royal Oak, commands a view of the sea from a hill overlooking a hamlet on the coast of Devon. I spend a great deal of time in London, however.  There’s not much call for a concert pianist on the coast of Devon.

I studied piano with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, on a harpsicord then, of course.  Later, I studied with Liszt, Ravel and Debussy. I was a fighter pilot in World War II, flying night missions over Nazi Germany.  Today, I fly a Lear jet to and from Royal Oak and London, sometimes ferrying members of my brethren to the Europe for continental fare.

The most important thing I want to tell you is the nature of my race—the Vampyre.  The most sacred creed of our kind is The Pact, and compared to the Ten Commandments, it is rather lax. Exceot…

The Masquerade. All of us are bound by an oath of secrecy concerning our true nature and our very existence. The Vampyre are viral mutations. The newbie is transformed in a ritual blood exchange wherein a fragile virus is introduced into the host. The blood borne pathogen is a mutagen.  BTW, most humans are viral mutations but to a much lesser degree.

Ever your servant,

Morgan

Reviewers have said of Morgan:

RT Book Reviews:  There are shades of the illustrious Lestat in the haughty Lord Morgan Gabriel D’Arcy, however, Linda Nightingale provides several interesting twists on the traditional vampire myth that makes this vampire (and his nocturnal adventures) into something wholly unique.

NY Journal of Books calls him: “…a tour de force of egotism, wit, sensuality, and talent”
