Bio: Karl Larew has been a history professor at Towson University, Maryland, specializing in military history and philosophy of history, since 1966 (semi-retired since 2005). He was a sometime civilian historian with the US Army and also an Army Intelligence officer. In addition to many articles and reviews on military and diplomatic topics, he has to his credit a number of articles on popular culture, including comic book history. He is also the author of five other novels, including "Bad Vampires," to which "Nazi Werewoofs" is the sequel (though each can be read as a stand-alone). He has had a life-long love for supernatural stories, especially spoofs of the same. He lives in southern Pennsylvania with his wife and cat.
What will readers like about your book? It's action-packed and full of puns and other fun, poked at James Bond, vampire, and werewolf stories.
Why did you self-publish?
Although I'd received considerable praise for my work, the only agent who agreed to market my stuff died before she could make a sale; so, rather than go through the agent-seeking process again, I went to self-publishing.
Who are your favorite authors in your genre?
Who are your favorite authors in your genre?
I've enjoyed Anne Rice's books but, for spoofs like mine, my inspiration has really been movies and comic books more than "serious" books.
