From predatory teenagers and interstellar battles to strange magic and alternate history, Chris Bunch brings his hard-edged storytelling to the shorter form. The Vampires of Malibu High collects some of Bunch's finest science fiction, fantasy, and horror stories, originally published in magazines including Absolute Magnitude, Fantastic Stories, Dreams of Decadence, and Realms of Fantasy.
These stories travel from the dangerous corridors of space to supernatural landscapes and unsettling versions of familiar worlds. Whether writing about vampires, soldiers, monsters, or ordinary people caught in extraordinary circumstances, Bunch combines fast-moving plots with dark humor, sharp characterization, and an unsentimental understanding of courage and survival.
Best known for his sweeping novels and popular series, Bunch proves equally skilled at creating complete and memorable worlds within a few pages. Imaginative, muscular, and unpredictable, The Vampires of Malibu High offers readers a wide-ranging introduction to the shorter fiction of one of speculative fiction's most versatile storytellers.
