Vampire, Nosferatu, creature of the night–whatever you call him–Jules Duchon has lived (so to speak) in New Orleans far longer than there have been drunk coeds on Bourbon Street. Weighing in at a whopping four hundred and fifty pounds, swelled up on the sweet, rich blood of people who consume the fattiest diet in the world, Jules is thankful he can’t see his reflection in a mirror. When he turns into a bat, he can’t get his big ol’ butt off the ground.

What’s worse, after more than a century of being undead, he’s watched his neighborhood truly go to hell–and now, a new vampire is looking to drive him out altogether. See, Jules had always been an equal opportunity kind of vampire. And while he would admit that the blood of a black woman is sweeter than the blood of a white man, Jules never drank more than his fair share of either. Enter Malice X . Young, cocky, and black, Malice warns Jules that his days of feasting on sisters and brothers are over. He tells Jules he’d better confine himself to white victims–or else face the consequences. And then, just to prove he isn’t kidding, Malice burns Jules’s house to the ground.

With the help of Maureen, the morbidly obese, stripper-vampire who made him, and Doodlebug, an undead cross-dresser who (literally) flies in from the coast– Jules must find a way to contend with the hurdles that life throws at him . . . without getting a stake through the heart. It’s enough to give a man the blues.

9 out of 10

This was a fab paranormal book. I rate it along the same lines as Christopher Moore's Vampire books. Maybe not quiet as funny though. Jules Duchon in the ultimate New Orleans native. He loves the Jazz and the town. He'd love to eat the food too but he has to settle for the blood of those that overindulge in the food. Thus he become a fat vampire. He's favorite meal is big black women or men. But there's a new vamp who's black and doesn't want Jules to have any of the black people even though a lot of the city is black. Jules must have the help of his friends to defeat this new vamp.
I can't wait to read the next book.
