Book recommendations for fiction about things like vampires, monsters, and the like.
Wanting to read some engaging fiction (not so deep that I need to read for 10 hours before I understand the lore, but not just a kids book) involving things like vampires (not twilight), monsters, and some action or adventure.
>the Dresden Files. Although I have to warn you that it has some problematic stuff in it, especially early on in the series. […] Harry fights monsters and fantastical creatures of many sorts. […]
Rivers of London is another great urban fantasy series that does many of the same things (with less problematic content) but in a lower magic setting. It’s less of a constant roller coaster and more about police work (the main character is a young cop who discovers a small secret branch of the police that deals with the supernatural).

Professor Dowell’s Head by Alexander Belyaev, a Soviet horror classic about an insane doctor and his experiments with reanimations and transplants.
