Book number thirteen of a twenty-one book science fiction and paranormal fantasy series. There is also an eleven book follow on series and many
other books related to the The Kurtherian Gambit Universe, over 200
books in total. I read the well printed and well bound POD (print on
demand) trade paperback self published by the author in 2016 that I
bought new on Amazon in 2026. I have the next three books in the series
and will read them soon. The related series are listed at:

The series is a cross between science fiction and paranormal fantasy. A thousand plus years ago, an alien space ship crash landed in the
Baltics. A man, Michael, found the space ship, went inside, and was
forever changed into the first vampire using alien nanocytes. However,
there were werewolves and werebears already existing on Earth and they
still exist but they are very rare.

Michael has sired vampires and they have sired vampires. But only one
of the vampire "children" is a daywalker like Michael. And Michael
enforces strict rules among the vampires and the weres, no blood
drinking, no letting humans know of them, etc. Violators of Michael's
rules face swift termination.

But it has been thousand years since Michael was changed and he now
sleeps for years at a time. Michael's helpers found a young woman named Bethany Anne working for the USA government who is dying of a rare blood disease. Michael took her to the alien space ship to become the second
first generation vampire on Earth.

Bethany Anne has created a huge workforce and they are swiftly moving
ahead with incredibly advanced AI and space access technology.
Bethany's people are building space ships and space stations with
gravitic drives in them that all of the governments of Earth want to buy
or steal. And the German government are mounting an expedition to
Antarctica to see if the old Nazi base there still exists.

This series is real pulp like old science fiction with lots of action
and dialogue. I love it !

Warning: this series might be damaging to your savings account since
there are so many books.
