Sonja Blue is Nancy A. Collins's recurring vampire heroine, introduced in the 1989 novel Sunglasses After Dark and carried through a run of subsequent novels and story collections. Collins built her reputation on this series, giving vampirism a harder-edged, horror-driven treatment than the genre's romance side typically offered at the time. The books follow Blue's ongoing fight against other supernatural predators across more than two decades of publication.
