"A raunchy, viciously funny, post-feminist bat's eye view of
L.A.'s dark side."
— Jonathan
Kellerman, author of the bestselling Alex Delaware novels"A taut, tight, sexy tale, combining love, vampirism, police
procedural, and some very mean streets. Deftly done."
Roger Zelazny,
Hugo- and Nebula-Award- winning
author of the Amber series

"A notable addition to the vampire field."
Kim Newman, author of ANNO DRACULA
"It's all a lot of fun, a sharp picture of life
after dark in Southern California...highly entertaining...an impressive first novel, and
excellent escapist reading in its own right."
Carolyn Cushman, LOCUS magazine
"The writing is crisp and clear-headed, and Gottlieb handles the
emotional complexities of the characters with brevity and
understanding… a good read with
just enough quirkiness to make it a memorable one."
Scott Winnett, LOCUS magazine
"Sherry Gottlieb's strongest point is her
bringing out the brilliant eccentricities of her characters. In
Love Bite, there is nothing like Ms Gottlieb bringing the City
of Angels to life in all its shades of bizarre eccentricities,
quirks, and nice/not-so-nice peccadilloes of its inhabitants."
— Lunarpages
"Fast-paced and exciting, one hell of a read!"
Thomas Doherty, Tor/Forge Books

Michele Slung
"A delightful, sexy brew."
FATEA magazine (U.K.)

"This is a clever and
cold-blooded little fable that captures the essence of our
times."
— Orlando Sentinel
"Sherry Gottlieb knows how to tell a story; WORSE THAN DEATH is a real
page-turner."
Hugo- and Nebula-Award-winning
author Joe Haldeman
"WORSE THAN DEATH intrigues me. It's inventive and very
amusing. Highly recommended."
Philip José Farmer, author of The
Riverworld series

"Sherry Gottlieb's new novel about vampires suggests that death may be the cure for what ails you--though the price may be more than you want to pay. A frequently funny, often terrifying novel about life and death on the dark side."
Frank M. Robinson, author of
WAITING and THE POWER
"A wonderfully erotic hard-boiled murder mystery about vampires in love…WORSE THAN DEATH is the perfect 'great read' to sprawl out with under a beach umbrella in the broiling sun or to curl up with in your favorite easy chair in front of a cozy fireplace on a chilly
night."
Richard A. Lupoff, author of WRITER AT LARGE
"WORSE THAN DEATH is a sexy, supernatural whodunit; Gottlieb's
vampires are compellingly original, with compellingly human problems. One wild, fast-paced
ride…"
Jeanne Kalogridis, author of The Diaries of the Family Dracul
"WORSE THAN DEATH spanks right along along with
steamy energy and the author's appropriately wry eye entertainingly
reporting the state of undeath in Southern California. One can hope Jace
and Risha will return in a third novel...."
— Locus - Edward Bryant
"Sherry Gottlieb's WORSE THAN DEATH is one hell of a sexy,
funny, exciting read. Miss this wonderful novel and you'll be kicking yourself into the
next life."
Patrick LoBrutto
"Sherry
Gottlieb adds a little spice to the tasty bloodsucker stew of vampire
fiction. Like Laurell K. Hamilton's excellent Anita Blake series,
Gottlieb writes about steamy, erotic power duels between humans and
the undead."
— Naomi Gesinger, Amazon.com
"A very straightforward book, clear and vivid and
appealing."
Catherine B. Krusberg, The Vampire's Crypt
"Very entertaining."

"HELL NO, WE WON'T GO! is a brilliant and
courageous contribution to the literature of dissent and the history of the Vietnam era.
These brave men, their words, their principles, their integrity and enduring courage will
serve as the 'different drummer' Thoreau spoke of, for a whole new generation to listen
to. Every American should read this book."
Ron Kovic, author of BORN ON THE FOURTH OF
JULY
"
will stir strong emotion in readers,
especially anyone who ever served in the military. If the truth hurts, then this book
carries quite an impact
an important volume."
Library Journal
"Any oral history of draft evasion should raise moral and
ethical issues of more than passing interest. Gottlieb's oral history of draft evasion in
the 1960s works on both these counts and is also surprisingly entertaining and
literate."
