y are here. The . They hide among us They hunt us. They feed on us. They ARE us. V-Wars is set in a world transformed by a global pandemic caused by a millennia-old virus that, once triggered, affects individuals differently depending on their DNA. The result is vampires as unique as their cultures and a response from those unaffected humans like never seen before. “The vampires people used to believe in weren’t charming, romantic antiheroes. They were monsters. Each culture had their own legends, and each of these vampires was completely different from the others; and all of them were different from the vampires in pop culture. We went directly to the source: the myths and legends of vampires around the world and throughout history. Old-school, scary, and complicated.” —Jonathan Maberry

In the end, the enemies of the gods rose up and destroyed their ancient foes. The sun and the moon were consumed, and worlds were shattered.

The enemies ruled the perpetual twilight, and fear was every man’s bedfellow.

Hope was all but gone, and out of the shadows crept evils that had lain hidden for millennia.

As the centuries passed, death and illimitable decay spread across the lands, and the enemies’ triumph was complete…

My Wife and my Children are dead. My Brothers and Sisters are dead. My Parents are dead. The Great Enemies still live. But I swear on the shattered bones of my kinsmen… …they will not live forever. I shall become… the storm.

Ragnarök… the Twilight of the Gods in Norse mythology… the destruction of the Nine Worlds. And now, three hundred years later, the birth of vengeance.
