You’ve waited for it. I’ve teased you mercilessly. You’ve pleaded, begged me, “Pleeeeeeeeeeeeease, Auntie Heather! Pleeeeeeease show us the cover of the first Slayer book! Pleeeease tell us the title!” And I have been a cruel, merciless overlord, and have not shared these things with you.
Until now.
Minions. Today I am going to tell you the title of the first book of The Slayer Chronicles, and reveal to you its cover. Both of these things have been a long time coming.
But before I do so, I’m afraid I have to tease you just a little bit more, with some fangtastic fun facts about the book (which will debt September 20, 2011):
- There are 30 chapters in this book.
- It is the darkest book (so far) that I have ever written.
- You will meet Cecile.
- You will see two characters from CoVT besides Joss & his parents.
- The book mostly takes place in the Catskills in New York.
- The book opens with a not-to-be-missed prologue.
- The first chapter is titled THE NEXT GREAT ADVENTURE.
- The last chapter is titled A SLAYER’S GIFT.
- The first sentence of the thirteenth chapter is: Setting explosives the day before had been immeasurably entertaining–and terrifying–but when Joss woke to a note from Uncle Abraham that said to meet him in the clearing, he was certain that this day was going to be drastically different than yesterday in tone.
- The last word in the book is soon.
Welcome, my Minion Horde, to the world of Joss McMillan, to his series – The Slayer Chronicles, and to the first book of five. The title is FIRST KILL. And this is its cover.
Seek it out, Minions, and pre-order as soon as you can, because this is one journey you won’t want to miss!

To do that was so sad. You should make abook about vlad and snow her eyes flashed which meams something

Excited for Slayer Chronicles.
You need to make another Vladimir Tod book, or a series about Snow when she turned into a vampire. That would be awesome. (:
A series about Snow, and then she couldn’t control her vampire urges and forces herself to leave her loved one Vlad and travel into the Vampire World. Wouldn’t that give us a huge understanding of the vampire world? It might be sooo stupid it might just WORK! Lol! You should watch Masters of Disguise, an awesome movie!

i want to know what happens after snows eyes turn green
pleasseeeee finish vladimir toddd
