"Death Becomes Her (Kurtherian Gambit)" by Michael Anderle
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1642020184

Book number one of a twenty-one science fiction and paranormal fantasy
series. There is also an eleven book follow on series and several other
books related to the main series. I read the well printed and well
bound POD (print on demand) trade paperback self published by the author
in 2015 that I bought new on Amazon in 2026. I have ordered the next
three books in the series.

The book is a cross between science fiction and paranormal fantasy. A thousand plus years ago, an alien space ship crash landed in the
Baltics. A man, Michael, found the space ship, went inside, and was
forever changed into the first vampire. However, there were werewolves
and werebears already existing on Earth and they still exist.

Michael has sired vampires and they have sired vampires. But only one
of the vampire "children" is a daywalker like Michael. And Michael
enforces strict rules among the vampires and the weres, no blood
drinking, no letting humans know of them, etc. Violators of Michael's
rules face swift termination.

But it has been thousand years since Michael was changed and he now
sleeps for years at a time. Michael is looking for a strong willed
religious young person who is dying to become a new first generation
vampire. His helpers have found a young woman named Bethany Anne
working for the USA government who is dying of a rare blood disease.
