Self-published book (author: Patrick Hansma, publisher: Patrick Hansma) distributed in 09.2020. [1] Not significant and does not pass WP:NBOOK. Eostrix  (^{🦉 hoot} _hoot🦉) 13:00, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

In the written corpus of vampire fiction, the dynamic between church and vampire has had a steady progress from 1) antithesis to 2) indifferent to 3) irrelevant (as documented in J Gordon Melton's The Vampire Book: the Encyclopedia of the Undead). The novel which this wiki article is about, represents a paradigm shift in that relationship and is therefore significant in the scope of vampire fiction. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MorbidAnatomy (talk • contribs)

• Delete per nom. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 14:11, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - Non-notable, self-published book. There does not appear to be a single reliable source mentioning or discussing it. Rorshacma (talk) 15:30, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete the article is so short and so bad it leaves doubt as to whether the book exists. Amazon.com verifies the book exists, but is self-published this month. No coverage at all other than a few online book stores. power~enwiki (π, ν) 18:30, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. There's nothing out there to show that this very newly released book is notable. I get the impression that there's a very strong conflict of interest here by the article creator, so I must caution them against creating articles on things that they or people they know have created. If the claims are true, then coverage will eventually come about and someone else can create the article. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 03:54, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Unreferenced, fails WP:V > WP:N, and in any case looks like self-promo for a self-publish. Or put it this way: if this stays, ummagunna create articles about the books I've written, and nobody wants that. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:24, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
