Again and again he will find his will tested, and his thirst tempted, by the killers who demand his allegiance . . . and the zen masters who will burn him down at his first missed step . . . He must walk a tightrope between the living and the dead . . . to master himself and his hunger. And the way of the wooden stake . . . The 25th Anniversary Revised Author Edition of the Los Angeles Times–bestselling author Steven-Elliot Altman’s controversial Zen in the Art of Slaying Vampires.
