The Vampire Huntress Legend is L.A. Banks’ signature series, following Damali Richards, a spoken-word artist in Philadelphia who discovers she is the Neteru — a divinely chosen warrior against vampires and other dark forces. The 13-book series begins with Minion (2003) and escalates through an epic supernatural war between heaven and hell.
The series builds a complex mythology drawing on multiple religious and spiritual traditions, running through The Thirteenth (2009). It remains one of the most popular paranormal series featuring a Black female protagonist.
