How to Start the Blood Fire Saga

The main series follows the intense and forbidden love between Mera, a witch who discovers her latent phoenix powers, and Valentine Sargon, the vampire king. You have two main starting points depending on your preference:

  • Start with Allure of the Vampire King (Book 1): This is the recommended starting point for most readers, as it immediately plunges you into Mera and Valentine's main story and conflict.
  • Start with Night of the Vampire King (Book 0.5): This prequel novella offers backstory on how Mera and Valentine first met and can be read first if you want the full chronological setup, though starting with Book 1 is just as satisfying.

Main Blood Fire Saga in Order

The primary storyline follows Mera and Valentine's romance across seven books. It should be read in publication order:

  1. Night of the Vampire King (Book 0.5 – Novella)
  2. Allure of the Vampire King (Book 1)
  3. Captive of the Vampire King (Book 2)
  4. Soul of the Vampire King (Book 3)
  5. Thrall of the Vampire King (Book 4)
  6. Passion of the Vampire King (Book 5)
  7. Rebirth of the Vampire King (Book 6)
  8. Bonds of the Vampire King (Book 7)

The Hades and Persephone Spin-Off

Bella Klaus also wrote a self-contained trilogy under the broader Blood Fire Saga universe banner. This spin-off retells the Greek myth of Hades and Persephone, focusing on a magic-less witch named Kora and the demon king Hades. Because it features separate characters and its own self-contained plot, you can read it before or after the main Mera and Valentine series without spoiling the main story.

Read the trilogy in this order:

  1. Abducted (Book 1)
  2. Corrupted (Book 2)
  3. Debauched (Book 3)
