I have had this one on my bookshelf for a while. I don’t know what took me so long to get around to it, but I am glad I finally dug it out!
Less Than Human is a very good vampire-ish, ancient Indian curse tale that cues up the blood and the building sense of dread as a few “nasties” come a calling and wreak havoc, in and out of the pool halls they haunt. They are playing for blood and winner takes all.
