Howling At The Moon/Wolf Giveaway
As Amanda has kindly agreed to host this giveaway and because I am also a huge fan of paranormal/urban fantasy books, I thought it would be great to celebrate the launch of my new website ‘Miss Bohemia’ and my Facebook target of 300 fans, with a paranormal themed giveaway!
As an increasing amount of my time is taken up making jewellery and accessories, I don't get to read as much as I would like, but I do often check out Amanda's blog posts (and others) to check out the latest reviews and recommendations, and my book obsessed sister usually provides me with the newest paranormal romance/urban fantasy titles!
I have always loved reading supernatural books, especially ones about vampires, but today’s giveaway is all about those hot blooded shifters! While werewolves were often characterized as being one dimensional i.e. hot tempered, dim witted and totally out of control at times (especially during the change and the full moon), I have enjoyed the introduction of more complex, intelligent and sexy shifters like Alcide (Sookie Stackhouse Novels) and Jacob (Twilight), and also the strong female lead characters such as Elena (The Otherworld Series)! I also enjoy watching ‘True Blood’ (as a separate entity to the books) and the UK series ‘Being Human’!
As someone who is often described as being ‘darkly romantic’, my shop is a mix of gothic fantasy, fairytales and pieces inspired by the Victorian era etc. My wolf inspired pieces include an ‘I Heart Wolves’ Bag charm, a ‘Howling at the Moon’ Ring and my gothic favourites are my ‘Black Rose Filigree Ring’ and my ‘Decadently Dark Neo Victorian Rose Necklace’.
For this giveaway, I have created a Fire and Ice Bag charm to represent the ‘hot blood wolves’ and their nemeses (the cold as ice vampires) and a wolf/moon ‘sweet dreams’ Dream Catcher! I have also included one of my Moonlight’ rings in this paranormal themed prize pack! In conjunction with this fabulous giveaway, I invite you all to visit my shop as I am also offering ‘free worldwide shipping’ from today, until the 28th November 2010, at my new online boutique ‘Miss Bohemia’!
“Good luck with the giveaway”

A shifter!!

Favorite shifter is tough - right now I am reading Silver Borne by Patricia Briggs, so I am going with Mercy Thompson, and yes she is one of my favorites along with Kelley Armstrong's Elena Danvers and Carrie Vaughn's Kitty Norville.
I am thinking that a shifter could best a Vamp with the brute force of head removal, but it would be a close fight.

I am a follower and email subscriber. I love Sam from Shiver. I would have to say a Vampire would win because they are alot stronger. Please enter me in contest. Tore923@aol.com
My favorite shape shifter is Mercy Thompson from the Patricia Briggs series. I am a follower of Miss Bohemia's Blog. My favorite item from the shop is the Amethyst Sparkle Silver Filigree Locket Necklace.

My favorite shifter is Faythe Sanders from Rachel Vincent's Shifter series. She is so strong and definitely an Alpha.

My favorite shifter is Nathaniel from Laurel K Hamilton's Anita Blake series.
On who would win, I think it depends on who's shifters and who's vampires are used.
My favorite thing from the web site is the gothic black and red hair pins.

Loving all of your answers so far! I have to say I must agree w/ some of you as having Mercy Thompson as my favorite shifter, though Kitty Norville and several others come very close.
As for who I think would win in a fight I have to go with my vampires lol.
Glad you all are enjoying the giveaway! Miss Bohemia is one of my very favorite shops! Plus, Jen is just awesome, so you can't go wrong following her. :)
My favorite shifter is Clay from Kelley Armstrong's Women of the Otherworld series.

I'm a stalker and a follower and a stalker of the lovely Miss Bohemia :) I love her jewellery.
My favourite shifter is Elena from Kelley Armstrong's Otherworld series and of course a vampire would win.
My favorite shifter is Curran from Ilona Andrews' Kate Daniels series.
Since it's just a bit harder to kill a vamp, I'd say a vamp would win.
I really liked the Magical Fairy with Pink & Purple Accents Bagcharm Keyring.

Jason the werewolf from the Anita Blake series by Laurell K. Hamilton, flirty but kickass.
Vampire is faster, but, depending on the shifter, if could be a draw. Elena made me like weres, but I've always liked vampires. :)

My fave shifter would be mercy thompson.
I think shifters win, they are rare and have souls. Besides I like to root for the under-coyote. ;)

I love Jacob from Twilight! As to who will win, I think it's supposed to be the shapeshifters, but if it'd be the Cullens, I'd want the vampires to win!

A vampire would probably win the fight, because they don't die so fast from injuries.

I would have to say Sam from Shiver cause he's so amazing and cute. And a shifter would totally win! :D

Hmm. I love Sam from the Sookie Stackhouse books (a little iffy on him on the tv show, though he's totally hot and ripped, just different). Quinn is pretty cool, too :)

My favorite item from your shop is the Angel Wings Earrings!
lauren.m.gibson AT gmail DOT com
Even though I like them both, I think a vempire would definitely win a fight. Shifters are too hotheaded and a lot more vulnerable than vampires. Vempires are already dead!

Thanks!
I think a ShapeShifter would win in a fight against a vampire. A Shapeshifter could shift into something like a bird and fly away.
I love True Blood so i would say Sam is my favorite ShapeShifter and Eric is my favorite Vampire.
Thanks!

I think a shifter could win! Of course, he could just turn into a garlic necklace! Lol
Amethyst Sparkle Dark Filigree Gothic Brooch is my fav.

My favorite character...definately Mercy! She's a shifter that has connections to everyone else, lol!

My favorite shifter is Mercy Thompson from the series of the same name by Patricia Briggs.
I think vampires are much stronger if compared to shifters, but it's possible for a shifter to outsmart a vampire. Vampires are dead, and so are their brains. XD

I think a vampire would win in a fight.

I love pretty much all the shifters in Mercy Thompson books, but I think Bran is my favorite.
Usually a vampire would win in a fight.

My favorite shifter is probably Mercy Thompson. I think it depends on the lore that the author is using--if you are using weak vamps like Twilight, than shifters could absolutely win.
