On a hot summer night in Vienna, wolves dream of passion…Įscaping from a disastrous marriage, Nina comes to stay with friends in Vienna for a much-needed holiday. You’ll be relieved to know that the Neffer werewolf makes no appearance in Vienna Valentine. All lay dead, hideously murdered and torn apart by the fearsome beast, who, having accomplished his demonic work, moved on… And then there were his friends, neighbours, family. Flattened as if trampled into the ground. The sight that met him there was horrific. Terrified to go back into the forest, the woodcutter made a long detour around it, to return to his village. The hideous, agonising screams of his fellow villagers. No sound of trees falling or thudding paws.īut then he heard sounds that chilled his blood, turning it to ice in his veins. He dared to look behind him but could see nothing but the trees. He fell to the ground, gasping for breath, his heart hammering in his chest. When he finally reached the edge of the forest, he had left the village ten miles behind him.
For hours he sped through the forest, while all the while, behind him, he heard the crashing of felled trees and huge, thumping paws that made the earth shake with every step. The woodcutter set off and ran for his life. But most frightening of all was the demonic, slavering grin on its face. Towering above him was a massive wolf, standing on tiptoes, paws outstretched ready to grab him. He looked behind him, but all he could see was darkness. One day, as he was out in the forest chopping wood to sell to his neighbours, he heard a gigantic crash. Way back in the sixteenth century, in an old Austrian village called Neffer, there lived a woodcutter. So, today I’ll share with you the strange and deadly tale ofĪre you sitting comfortably? Then I’ll begin: In Austria, there are many old folk tales of werewolves, and I’m afraid that none I know of contain such passionate and beautiful creatures as Magda, Jakob and Karl in my story. Well, with all the lush green pine forests that blanket so much of the Austrian countryside – not to mention the Vienna Woods themselves – you might expect to come across the odd shapeshifting canis lupus, mightn’t you? My latest paranormal erotic romance, Vienna Valentine, features a trio of werewolves.
Today I’m delighted to have the lovely Antonia van Zandt with me to talk about her latest release, Vienna Valentine, and a certain creature of the night…
