The vampire genre has a new star, and it’s unlike anything readers have seen before. Batty, a groundbreaking novel that has already won numerous awards, takes readers on a journey into a world where ancient myths collide with modern-day fears. Written with a unique blend of horror, mythology, and deep emotional resonance, Batty is set to become a must-read for fans of dark fantasy and supernatural fiction.
At the heart of Batty is Sophie, a 17-year-old loner whose life takes a terrifying and unexpected turn when she ventures into a forbidden wooded area. What begins as an innocent walk soon spirals into a nightmarish adventure as Sophie falls into a seemingly bottomless hole and enters a world she was never meant to see. There, she meets Ba’ki, the apsu akhkharu—an ancient term meaning “vampires who exist from the beginning.” Ba’ki is not just any vampire; he is the original vampire, the emperor of the underworld, a creature of immense power who resembles a frightening yet oddly handsome giant bat.
Unbeknownst to Sophie, her arrival in this dark world was no accident. Ba’ki has been waiting for her, drawing her into his realm with a purpose that remains shrouded in mystery. As Sophie uncovers the horrors and secrets of this underworld, she faces a daunting choice: should she stay and confront the terrifying truths she discovers, or return to her lonely life above ground, forever changed by what she has seen?
Batty is not your typical vampire story. It delves deep into ancient Sumerian mythology, incorporating real ancient language and translations to create a rich and authentic narrative. This connection to ancient lore adds a unique layer of depth to the novel, making it a story that feels both timeless and hauntingly contemporary.
The novel has already received widespread acclaim in the literary community, winning 1st Place Vampire Winner at The Light Awards, The Shooketh Awards, The Phoenix Wars, and The Necro Awards, among others. Batty has also been recognized for its exceptional plot, winning the Best Plot award at The Titan Awards. Its success on Wattpad, where it has ranked #1 in both the Demon and Vampire Romance categories, is further testament to its popularity and appeal.
Readers are drawn to Batty not only for its chilling atmosphere and terrifying creatures but also for its emotional depth. Sophie’s journey is one of self-discovery, as she grapples with her place in a world that has always felt cold and indifferent. The novel’s exploration of loneliness, belonging, and the desire for connection resonates deeply with readers, making Batty much more than just a horror story.
“I wanted to create a story that would captivate readers on multiple levels,” says the author of Batty. “It’s not just about vampires and monsters—it’s about finding where you belong, even in the most unlikely of places. Sophie’s journey is one that I think many people can relate to, and I hope that readers will find both thrills and meaning in her story.”
Batty is now available on Amazon KDP in both ebook and paperback formats. Whether you’re a fan of the vampire genre or just looking for a compelling and unique read, Batty promises to deliver an unforgettable experience.
