This was an enjoyable read. Had the author been any other than Colin Wilson, it would have been far less entertaining.

On Mar 3 2008, Warren's Books said:

When Captain Carlsen entered a derelict spaceship he discovered immobilized humanoid passengers. the creatures were energy vampires whose seductive embraces were fatal. Captain Carlson worked towards their destruction, but he was erotically drawn to the most beautiful vampire of all.

There are difficult names that slow down a rather quick erotically pleasant gory read.
