The 1st Law of Thermodynampires


At brunch today, Stephenie Meyer's Twilight Series came up. On Meyer's website, it explains the idea for the series came to her in a dream...


Well, I've had my share of vampire dreams too, some of them quite amusing. This is one of my favorites, unfortunately, I don't think it would make for a best-selling YA series....


But I'll pitch it to you anyway....



The 1st Law of Thermodynampires*


When 17-year-old Sadie** stumbles into a patch of freezing mist in an abandoned construction site, she finds herself transported to a realm untouched by time or entropy. She meets a pair of renegade physicists and soon learns that they've found a way to live outside the laws...of the physical universe!


Initially dazzled by their science, Sadie begins to realize that her hosts' hospitality isn't quite as generous as she thought. If all the data points towards a horrific hypothesis, can Sadie save herself from a chilling conclusion?


*I'm sure someone else has uttered/written/thought this before, but as far as Google knows, I just coined the term “thermodynampire!” Wohoo!


**Named for this guy, naturally.


***There'd be sequels, "The 2nd Law of Thermodynampires," "The 3rd Law..." etc.

Don't worry, I'll get to the recycling vampires soon, I just couldn't think of a catchy name for them. Plus, I had to find that journal and re-read it.

That verification code is pretty creepy....good job, Blogger..
