Vampire Book Review
ALLBOOKS BOOK REVIEW
www.allbooksreviews.com www.allbooksreviews.ca
Genre: Fantasy / Erotica
Title: The Dancing Valkyrie
Author: Peter Klein
Blood and sex. Of course love, but not the way humans think about it.
This is the recurring theme throughout The Dancing Valkyrie, a story about Mary Hoffman, librarian by day and exotic dancer by night. Mary, needing some time alone takes a hike along a secluded upstate New York trail. She is saved from two predatory young men by Beth, a beautiful woman slightly older than Mary. The two join together for the rest of the trail, becoming romantically involved along the way. Beth, it turns out is a vampire, and quickly introduces Mary to the mystical world she lives in. After inviting Mary back to her castle, built by her brother, Joseph, in a remote area, Mary is seduced into becoming a vampire as well. Joseph and Beth are hundreds of years old, and pose as brother / sister, but are husband and wife, or, in vampire terms, father and daughter. Thus begins the fascinating story of Mary’s transition from human woman to vampire.
This book is full of rich and incredibly descriptive prose that makes you feel you are in every scene. The dialog is both thought provoking and believable (or course we are talking about vampires), with an excellent mix of philosophical, religious and historical references mixed within the real time story. The plot is not complex, as the story is more of a journey than a twisty-turny, keep you in the dark project. It is more than adequate, however, as you quickly become submersed in the protagonist’s discovery process. Klein presents vampires in a light never seen before, and frankly one of the most inventive and most original depictions I’ve ever read.
This is an absolute must read if you are a vampire fan. It should be tempered with the fact that it is an erotic novel. However, the sex is an integral part of the novel’s framework and not only necessary, but adds to the overall richness of the work. A pleasant surprise on the last page was: “TO BE CONTINUED.”
Highly recommended.

A Supreme Court Abortion
So the abortion debate rages on. But what if any of those pillars of morality on the Supreme Court were in a position to look ahead in the following examples? Would they have forced the woman to have an abortion even if she would have screamed, "My son would never do such a thing!"
Would they have forced Mrs. Hitler to have an abortion?
Would they have forced the mother of the young man who carried out the killings at Virgina Tech to have an abortion?
Just a thought and just a reminder that all attempts to look into the future and presume what can't be known are doomed to failure.
And let's bring God into this controversy. Is God the number one abortionist, for what is an abortion but an assisted miscarriage?

Moral vs. Legal
Several terms are used interchangeably when they are very different and are often in opposition.
What is moral is not always legal and what is legal is not always moral.
Adding to the linguistic problem is how what is moral is not always agreed upon. Different religions, different culltures, even individuals within the different religions and cultures do not always agree.
A few examples of how morality and legality can collide should suffice.
Currently in the USA, it is legal for banks to charge whatever interest on credit cards they think they can get away with and not have everyone cut up their credit cards. These banks are run for the most part by people who will claim to be members of the Christian or Jewish faiths. And yet, the Old Testament condemns usury. Where do you draw the line? Where does the economic need to charge interest pass the line from the cost of doing business and making a profit pass the line to violating the immorality of usury? Is it 5% above prime, 10% above prime or is 20 % above prime okay?
While we have eliminated debtors prisons, we seem to have created a debtors hell for many with interest rates rising (legally) if the debtor has any problem paying a debt. If a person is struggling to pay a debt, is it moral to raise the interest rate further beyond what they were having a problem paying?
One more example. Marijuana.
MJ is illegal. But is it immoral? Or to put it another way. Other than the illegal situation, is there any moral difference between driving while intoxicated by booze and driving while high on MJ? I put it this way because I can see problems with both booze and MJ. Jesus apparantly drank. The Bible says he created wine out of water so everyone could continue to have a good time at a wedding. God created MJ, so it would seem the Creator had no more of a problem with MJ than with grapes.
I can't resist one more example. Thou shalt not kill.
The Bible does not say "Thou shalt not kill except if the government gives you permission." Neither does the Bible say it is okay to lie, steal and kill if National Security requires it.
You may not agree with these few examples but I think you must agree that what is moral and what is legal are not the same thing. The government, any government, can jail and kill people who have not done anything immoral but who have broken a law. That is what happened to Jesus.
