Nancy A. Collins wordt geprezen om haar horrorgenre, met name haar vampierromans met Sonja Blue. Haar werk duikt in de wereld van mythische wezens, bekend als Pretenders, die zich onder de mensen verbergen om beter te kunnen jagen. Collins verkent ook de donkerdere kanten van het Amerikaanse Zuiden in veelgeprezen Southern Gothic korte verhalen en novelles, vaak gesitueerd in een fictief Arkansas. Meer recentelijk heeft ze zich gericht op de Golgotham-serie, die New York City voorstelt als een bovennatuurlijk getto waar folklorewezens met moeite naast de mensheid bestaan.

One spring night in London, heiress Denise Thorne disappears while partying at a nightclub, never to be seen again.

In the years since her bizarre resurrection, Sonja Blue travels the globe, hunting down and disposing of those creatures that prey on the innocent while searching for the vampire Noble who created her. But when she investigates a sleazy televangelist named Catherine Wheele, who is exploiting Denise Thorne's parents, Sonja finds herself up against a powerful inhuman adversary. But as dangerous as Catherine Wheele proves to be, Sonja's greatest foe remains the Other, the demonic personality with whom she is locked in a constant battle for control of their shared body. Can Sonja Blue overcome her inner demon in time to rescue an innocent man from Catherine Wheele's unholy clutches?

Blood invasion
Years ago, Drakulon, a planet of living vampires, faced a severe drought and sent Space Scouts to find a new home with abundant blood. The brave Vampirella became marooned on Earth, where she struggled to adapt, as all other vampires were evil undead. Over time, she gained fame as a monster hunter and protector of the vulnerable, finding friendship and love. However, her life changes dramatically when her people, led by General Orlok, arrive on Earth, bringing hope for a new beginning. Initially thrilled to reunite with her love, Tristan, Vampirella soon discovers Orlok's dark intentions for Earth. When she rebels against him, she is labeled a traitor and imprisoned. With the unexpected aid of her enemy, Count Dracula, she escapes. Alongside her best friend, Pantha, a were-woman, Vampirella must confront her disdain for monsters to join a rebel army of witches, the undead, and Dr. Frankenstein's creations. Together, they fight to save humanity and the planet itself, proving that sometimes, the enemy of my enemy can become an ally in the face of a greater threat.
The only hope for both mankind and monsters alike is a ritual that will send the demons back to the Hell that birthed them. But first, a rag-tag crew including the Frankenstein Monster and Eva, the Daughter of Dracula, must track down the fabled grimoire known as the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis and deal with its guardian... a certain Ash Williams.
From shadow-haunted Stygia emerges an evil undreamt of by even the most depraved minds: the demi-god called Sutekh. Born of an unspeakable blood ritual, he is the half-human progeny of the ancient serpent-god Set, sent forth to enslave Mankind in the name of his father and return the world to a primordial swamp.
Mother Earth has been suffering at the hands of her children: acid rain, toxic waste, polluted air, poisoned water, and a depleted ozone layer are only the most obvious signs of mankind's ingratitude to the planet. In The Earth Strikes Back , twenty writers of fantastic fiction have contributed dark tales focusing on ecological terror and suspense. The cautionary, often shocking volume, edited by World Fantasy Award winner Richard T. Chizmar, features brilliant new short stories from such best-selling authors as Dan Simmons, Richard Laymon, Poppy Z. Brite, Ed Gorman, Rick Hautala, Thomas Tessier, Charles de Lint, Nancy Collins, Hugh B. Cave, and many others.
