Blood of the Goddess William Schindler

Fantasy, adventure, India travel log, Hindu philosophy, and gay romance all wrapped into one. An immortal teacher waits three centuries for the reincarnation of his student to unite them in an adventure quest that takes them from South India to the high Himalayas and then onward to early 20th century America. They seek the transformative shrine of a mysterious Goddess, who alone can grant immortality. A powerful entity seeks to thwart their endeavor at every step. Qvamp@QueerHorror.com says: "A very unusual find. This book contains an amazing amount of information about the Hindu spirituality. If you are a gay vampire fan and interested in Eastern mythology, this book is highly recommended. . . I recommend this book (and find it refreshing) because of its unique take on the vampire mythos." Steven LaVigne says in the White Crane Journal: "Schindler has joined Stoker, Rice, and others with his mesmerizing novel. . . However, Schindler's tome goes several steps further. . . . Blood of the Goddess explores in effectively hallucinatory passages the gay side of Krishna and the dwarf as a magical, mythic being. He probes religious aspects on penis worship as he utilizes his yogic training and learning on India's culture to draw us into a deeply philosophical novel.. . . Blood of the Goddess is a terrific achievement in the realm of the vampire novel."
