If you loved Empire of the Vampire
-
Interview with the Vampire
Also built around a vampire telling his life to a listener, though far more brooding and personal than martial.
-
The Blade Itself
A similarly hard, funny-bleak fantasy with scarred fighters and little interest in heroism.
-
'Salem's Lot
A classic of vampires overrunning a community, with a much smaller scale and a slow creeping dread.
