Randy Jernigan and Les Bailey
"If آپ loved Les' first two کتابیں in the series, then you're going to really get into his third book," Randy exclaimed proudly in his Sunday afternoon post. "I just read the first chapter last night--what powerful writing! Every sentence was strong and kept me spellbound.Book three will absolutely knock your socks off, I have no doubt!"
A Salt Lake City native, Les Bailey actually began writing his مقبول vampire trilogy years earlier in one of Randy's creative writing courses in his Writers Studio in Utah.
In a گزشتہ interview Randy once explained to me, "I knew when I first met Les several years back in one of my creative writing classes, that he was going to write the great American novel--and he did! Even then Les was a master storyteller. I remember vividly the feelings of excitement I experienced when he read allowed from one of his class assignments. The prose within the story was downright delicious. I recognized almost immediately that Les had already developed his own unique and sensuous voice, which is what I was aiming for for each of my students be the end of the eight week course," Randy related.
So several years later when Mr. Bailey contacted Randy about the idea of helping him کریں شائع his first book, Randy accepted without a سیکنڈ thought.
"I would have felt like one of those few publishers that turned down J K Rowling's Harry Potter کتابیں in the end," Randy was quoted as saying at the time.
After reading the manuscript through for the first time, Randy knew that his friend had created a true work of art--a masterpiece!"

In an interview about Bailey's book series, Randy added, "If the Vampire Game were only a fantasy adventure Vampire tale, it would still be well worth the read. But Les is telling an even مزید profound story here. The Vampire Game is yet another radiant and moving treatment on the exciting, yet tragic nature of life itself.
