Feud

 



In most popular literature, vampires are portrayed as charming, classy, and sexy creatures. While werewolves are portrayed as lower class, filthy, and dirty. This story reverses that image and portrays werewolves as elegant, classy, powerful, and beautiful. At the same time, a group of werewolves portray black characters as smart, cunning, and just as powerful as their white counterparts who are vampires. This story also lays out a fictional theory of how Prince George County, Maryland, became the home of so many affluent black families while at the same time portraying black people in a way that they have not always been viewed in America, equal. 


The story of ‘Feud’ takes readers on the journey of Ally and Aaron (protagonists) and how their two distinct werewolf creation stories collide with James Siller (villain) in present-day Washington, DC, and the surrounding areas. It is fundamentally a story of looking past what one sees and putting aside personal biases to find common ground in relationships that sometimes seem impossible. It is a story about creating family, love, and relationships with a group of people who get tossed into an impossible situation that makes them bond to survive. 


This compelling tale is not only a tale of supernatural intrigue but also a poignant exploration of identity, community, and the quest for understanding. Expertly paced and character-driven, “Feud” skillfully navigates complex themes that will challenge readers, leaving them spellbound as they embark on a journey of love, loyalty, and the enduring bonds of kinship.
