Overview

What if eternal life wasn't all it's cracked up to be? Achy joints, cranky moods, and failing powers prove immortality is just late-onset death. Such is the life of a six-hundred-something whose best years are in the rearview mirror--and Vlad can't even see himself in a mirror. Now living in Upton Arms, a retirement community for once-powerful supernatural beings, Vlad and his eccentric neighbors are learning a painful truth: life, even for immortals, is terminal. Rising at dusk is a struggle, and turning into a bat? Forget it! Vlad's stiff wings are more likely to cause a crash landing than a graceful flight. And when it comes to his hypnotic powers, he can't even convince someone to grab him the remote control in the community room than control their will. Just when Vlad thinks it can't get worse, Upton Arms faces something more dangerous than his existential crisis--foreclosure. Vlad sees it as the final nail in his coffin, even as the other tenants rally behind Luis, a werewolf and unofficial pack leader. Together, they'll fight for survival, and Vlad will discover a shocking truth: it's not too late to start living again.

By the time he left, print editions were nearly extinct and in another decade or so may rarely be found outside small-town museums.He lives with his wife and two dogs in a tiny-home community in Oregon, where everybody knows everyone else (in a friendly, not cult-like, way). When he's not writing, he's enjoying the beer or scenery (often both) offered by the Willamette Valley. Eric Michael Summerer is a voice actor and producer who has narrated numerous audiobooks as well as countless instructional recordings and video games. He earned an Audie Award nomination for Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke and won an AudioFile Earphones Award for Burning Chrome by William Gibson.
