I found some new vampire literature to read.

I got a recommendation from a friend to read the Thirst series by Christopher Pike  (the link to the Simon & Schuster page opens in a new tab). You can find him on Facebook at Christopher Pike’s Facebook page  (the link opens in a new tab). I just ordered it, and I will see how I like the paperback novel Thirst, no. 1:Human urges, Fatal Consequences  (the link opens in a new tab) after I am done with reading it. There is a Wikipedia article on the Thirst, formerly The Last Vampire, series  (the link opens in a new tab).

As thanks for the recommendation of a series to read, I suggested to that friend a series for him to read that I liked. The Fallen at sniegoski.com/fallen  (the link opens in a new tab) by Thomas E. Sniegoski at www.sniegoski.com  (the link opens in a new tab). The book series can be found through the Thomas E. Sniegoski page on Amazon  (the link opens in a new tab).

Philosophize This’s episode ninety, “Nietzsche pt. 1 – God is dead and so is Captain Morgan  (the link opens in a new tab), is the first in the rest of the Nietzsche section (a four-part episode section of episodes 90, 91, 92, and 93) has really struck a great chord with me while listening to the show. I did a quick Google search for “where does the ‘God is dead’ quote by Nietzsche come from” and found the textbook Nietzsche wrote the quote in. In this time between undergraduate and master’s, I am adding this book that the quote comes from to my to-read list: The Gay Science  (the link opens in a new tab).

And I envision myself at one point being able to attend frequently enough some kind of gathering where topics like this become the norm for conversations. Questioning these types of things opens me up at times to questioning what really is the pecking order of life? Spanning not only sentient beings but including that and, more broadly, spread across the spectrum of all earth’s living, existing beings/things.
