Missing out

Visiting Bourne Hall library the other day to check their recycled DVD shelf, I came across half a dozen or more books from J. R. Ward on their recycled book shelf, a New York Times bestselling author of whom I had not previously heard.

It seems that there is a whole world of vampires out there which I am missing out on. According to Wikipedia, it is pretty serious stuff, at least ten volumes of it, with this one all about 'Rhage, son of Tohrture, is the strongest and most beautiful of the Brothers. Aptly nicknamed "Hollywood", he is also the most sexual because of his beast. Cursed by the Scribe Virgin, Rhage is possessed by a dark creature known only as the "Beast", making him a danger to everyone, including his Brothers. However, the beast harbors feelings for a human named Mary. Rhage falls in love with her and longs to take Mary as his shellan. Their story is told in Lover Eternal'.

On the other hand, if the library is recycling some of its holdings, perhaps the crest of the wave has passed. We wonder whether they will they appear on ITV3 or in a Hook Road car booter in DVD format any time soon.
