Praise for Vanther the Vanquisher: Bloodquest, my new novel and story collection rocketing to the top of the Hot New Vampire Horror Releases on Amazon!
"I was flattered once again to be asked to provide an introduction to another of Scott Harper’s books. Unlike his previous collection of short stories, this latest work, VANTHER THE VANQUISHER: BLOODQUEST is a full-length novel. This gives Scott a great opportunity for intricate world building, strong character development and rich, descriptive passages.
Although Vanther has many of the horror elements for which Scott is best known, this work is much more of a gritty sword and sorcery epic in the great pulp tradition of Robert E. Howard or Edgar Rice Burroughs. Bloody battles abound with treachery and deceit, and there is no shortage of vampires, shapeshifters, and assorted ghouls.
As the subtitle suggests, this book is indeed a bloody quest. Our valiant Vanther vanquishes one deadly foe after another as he rises to meet each new challenge, sword in hand. Not for the squeamish, it’s a blood-curdling thrill ride of manly men and seductive, beautiful women. Can’t wait for you discover the ghoulish delights inside.
Move over Conan and Tarzan, make room for Vanther, the Vanquisher!
Better read it with a night-light on. ~Kevin Glover

"With Vanther the Vanquisher, Scott Harper brings the readers a collection of vampire stories that thrill and delight. The novella itself is a welcome sojourn into the world of high fantasy and vampires, with creatures of legend, dark necromancers and, of course, the vampire Vanther - a story that will thrill any lover of vampires, swords and sandals. The other books are a collection of tales, connected by a singular set of lore but across different time periods, a highlight being a continuation of the Dracula story and a unique take on the Mina and Van Helsing relationship. Highly recommended." ~ Andrew M Boylan, Taliesin Meets the Vampires
“Scott Harper has created a smartly written and wonderfully entertaining mix of Sword and Sorcery and Vampires, with a pinch of Edgar Rice Burroughs added in. Robert E. Howard and Brian Lumley would be very pleased indeed!”~ Douglas Draa, Weirdbook editor and weird fiction aficionado
“Scott Harper’s Vanther is a riveting tale that leaves you wanting more. His vampire stories are second to none; they have excellent characters, lots of violence, and a great storyline.”~ Chris St.Pierre (chris_st.pierre7s), Goodreads and Instagram book reviewer with 1,5000 followers
"Vanther the Vanquisher is a high-concept, fast-paced, action-packed spicy pulp adventure you can really sink your teeth into."
~ Jason J. McCuiston, author of Project Notebook and the Last Star Warden series
"Very good story... beautiful writing, I can say. [Harper's] worldbuilding is absolutely fantastic. The whole book is absolutely fantastic! 9.5 out of 10. It is that good, so I highly recommend it. Go grab it!" ~ Kevin Kuenkler, book reviewer and owner of The Bookcase bookstore
