Are Vamps and Werewolves too overdone?

For what it's worth, there's Emma Bull's War for the Oaks, and Kara Dalkey's Steel Rose which is pretty much a direct response to the Bull.  Both very good books.

The Corvidian:
Most of the ideas I have with vampires and werewolves have them being the trouble makers. They have come to believe their own PR that they are the "Lords of the Night", something that many of the other supernaturals like to dis-abuse them of.

There's so much more to the mythos than bloody elves.

Hmm, mine revolves around the Sidhe coming to 'reclaim' the earth.
Atlantis and Avalon pop up too.
I figured while I'm minign the mythos, I should go full throttle :)

Oh! I've read both of those. Good books.

Nobody's cuter than Prince.


BTW, Emma Bull is not what you'd expect in real life. She's like an american version of Emma Thompson, and charming as hell. She has a new book in the works, btw.

Kiriath:
There's more Fae than that! :)

How about Holly Black's Tithe and its sequels.
Laurell Hamilton's Merry Gentry...
Melissa Marr's Wicked Lovely, which had a lot of advertising on Locus's website for a while.

EDIT: Or do you mean fae that's not young adult? That's more rare to find...
