Linda Pittillo announces release of ‘Survivors of the Darkness’
Fiction fantasy book is about, werewolves, vampires that uses darkness to kill, humans trying to survive them
ORANGE, Texas – Linda Pittillo has been writing almost since she learned to read. She has read many science fiction and horror books in the 1950s and 1960s. Also the Hammer Film Productions prevalent in the 1960s became her guide as to the character of vampires. The old black and white movies about werewolves shown on late night TV fascinated her, too. Because of her fascination about vampires and werewolves, it inspired her to write “Survivors of the Darkness” (published by Xlibris), an adult science fiction/fantasy about werewolves and vampires as the enemies of people also trying to survive to see the sun again.
It is the year 2086. The remnants of a comet’s tail have enveloped the earth in cosmic dust. Although the earth still orbits the sun, very little of its heat or light penetrates the thick dust. There are survivors of the extreme cold and lack of food though. However, there are two enemies that use the darkness to kill. These are werewolves and vampires. In New Orleans, a compound created by Gerard to keep all humans safe is going to be attacked by these vampires. Everyone must leave immediately and should head towards a new and safe place. Not all of them will make it but most will live to see the sun again. Their journey is over but not their adventures.
“This book will appeal to readers because it has characters you want to know better. It has action and sexy romance. There is also tragedy and humor. Readers like books about werewolves and vampires,” Pittillo says.
“I want the reader to take away the concept that man can prevail. That a good heart can even overcome their birth circumstances. That the sun will shine again, even if it’s dark now,” she adds.

About the Author
Linda Pittillo has traveled all over the country with her husband because of his career. However, about 10 years ago she settled in Southeast Texas and loves it. Although she has written all of her life, she became discouraged a few years ago by the rejection of a mainstream publisher and wrote without trying to publish anything. Now, however, she wants others to enjoy reading the books she has so enjoyed writing. She says that sometimes in her books the characters seem to have a mind of their own and change their actions to fit their character.
