Both books are now available through online retailers and are available at many stores in and near the Adirondacks.THE DANCING VALKYRIE
With "The Dancing Valkyrie" (ISBN # 1411659651) Klein is breaking new ground in the popular horror genre - the vampire novel.
"The Dancing Valkyrie" is the story of a young woman who is an erotic dancer at a topless club in Schenectady, NY, who, while on a hike in the wilds of the Adirondacks, is seduced by a female vampire over 500 years old (but doesn't look a day older than 25) who turns her into a vampire.
The novel follows the erotic dancer's rapid acclimation into being what she was born to be - a vampire with a lust for both blood and sex - and draws to a conclusion when she meets the real Van Helsing, a vampire who lives to kill other vampires!
Klein says, "I became fascinated with vampire stories in grade school when I first saw the original movie "Dracula" on TV. My interest deepened because my grandparents on my father's side came to this country from Romania, the country in which both the real and the fictional Dracula came from."
Reading Dracula the novel in his early 20's made Klein see the story was deeply erotic.
Klein says, "When I found Anne Rice and her vampire novels, I felt someone was finally seeing beyond the cli' ches that had developed over the years. But I still was not fully satisfied. I felt that if there really were vampires, they could not possibly be demons. They would have to be of flesh and blood. They would have to be a unique creature not yet captured or studied by humans."
"The Dancing Valkyrie" was the result - with vampires of flesh and blood.
Initial reports from readers say, "This is a real page-turner."
ADIRONDACK HIKES IN HAMILTON COUNTY
"Adirondack Hikes in Hamilton County" (ISBN # 1411675142) is the first published hiking guide aimed only at trails and attractions in Hamilton County, NY.
In addition to being a trail guide, the book offers tips on many outdoor activities, state campgrounds, local chambers of commerce and who to call in an emergency.
Klein says, "The hikes listed are hikes I have taken with my "hiking buddies," my granddaughters, who have kept me young and have provided me the needed excuse to get out and enjoy the woods. Most of the hiking stories have previously appeared in "The Hamilton County News" where I work as a reporter. Many readers of the paper have suggested over the years that I should put the hiking stories together in book form. and this guide is the result."
The book is scheduled to be reviewed soon by "Adirondack Life" and "The Adirondack Explorer."
In addition to the two books, but available only from the author's web site, is a calendar with photos taken on hikes in Hamilton County and both a CD
