Cutting edge vampire stories

These were recommended by a friend @BooktalkBmth,  if you are looking for Non Fluffy Vampires (R) you could try:

• The Vampire Quintet by Jasper Kent  (period Russian vampires, I think I'll give this one a go)
• The Strain by Guillemo del Toro
• A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness

Have you read Night Watch by Sergei Lukyanenko?

The fantasy encylopedia article on vampires  hasn't been updated in a while but you might find something there you haven't read

if you find any more, let me know too.....
