    "...this moody, fast-paced debut falls into the growing 'dark fantasy' category, which blends fantasy, comic book superheroism and paranormal romance, but holds no promise of a happily-ever-after. ... Pettersson centers her story around the signs of the Zodiac, putting an imaginative spin on a familiar setup. Though graphic scenes (in which tongues are severed, heads ripped off, etc.) will repel some readers, others will embrace Pettersson's enduring, tough-as-nails heroine and anticipate gleefully the next volume..." -- Publishers Weekly

Tune in July 2, at 2pm EST to see why everyone is talking about this former Vegas showgirl... the hottest new name in urban fiction, and just out with CITY OF SOULS, the fourth book in her Zodiac series!

    Hi Vicki Pettersson. I am a huge fan of your Signs of the Zodiac series in Australia. I actualy found the first three books (Scent of Shaddows, Taste of Night and Touch of Twilight) in a bargan box at my local K-mart store for 4$'s each, read the blurbs and I was hooked. I took them home and I began reading straight away. Your writing style is so amazing and so vivid I actualy picture the scenes in my head as I slept. Have you ever thought about turning the series into a movie?

    I finished City of Souls Wednesday night... or more like Thursday morning.... wow... I couldn't believe everything that went down... I'm sooooooooo happy that R finally died. I've been waiting for that since she first appeared... Make my year and tell me that you're almost done with the 5th one. I'm joining the Air Force and would love to be able to read it before I leave... When I'll actually have time to read it.... Pretty please??
