Relation In Pursuance Of Books Covenant with the Vampire (The Diaries of the Family Dracul #1)

A sensual, terrifying, incredibly accomplished first novel, this fascinating prequel to the classic and most popular horror novel of all time, Dracula, focuses on Dracula's great-nephew, who inherits the job of managing his great-uncle's estate...and his appetite. Written in diary form as Dracula is, this compulsively readable book has revelations that will shock and delight readers of the original. More erotic than Anne Rice, Kalogridis is a major new voice in vampire fiction. The first chilling tale in an exciting new trilogy is a rich and terrifying historical novel set fifty years before the opening of Bram Stoker's Dracula. At the castle of Prince Vlad Tsepesh, also known as Dracula, Vald's great-nephew Arkady is honored to care for his beloved though strange great-uncle...until he beings to realize what is expected of him in his new role. It seems that either he provides his great-uncle with unsuspecting victims to satisfy his needs, or Vlad will kill those Arkady loves. He is trapped into becoming party to murder and sadistic torture. And it is in his blood. When Arkady learns that his newborn son is being groomed one day to follow in his footsteps, he knows that he must fight Dracula, even if it means death.

Discuss Epithetical Books Covenant with the Vampire (The Diaries of the Family Dracul #1)

This series is excellent! It captures a historical voice, but doesn't waste words or time. This series makes Bram Stoker's Dracula looks like just a ring on the hand of an exotic princess. So many things that didn't make sense, make sense now. I enjoy all three books, the original Dracula and Coppola's movie so much more!

Now this was a pleasant surprise!Anyone who's been bothered with taking a peek at my profile will know that i mostly, greatly, favor non fiction for reading material or classics by people long departed from the world.However, every now and then, i get too tired of 500 page books on more "serious" topics and will ocasionally hunt a few good old fashioned novels to read as a distraction - and if one happens to have vampires in it, even better!I'm a long time fan of that wonderful classic by Bram

This book is another pseudo-Abyss title. It was published right around the time the imprint began to lose steam, and it was horror, but it lacks the Abyss logo and name. I remember getting it when the imprint was still in existence, though, so I added this title to my Abyss project.As for the book itself, it's not that bad. Kalogridis' style is easy without being simplistic, and the story she tells is engaging. Her characterization skills are good, and while she doesn't re-use any of the main

review will for tomorrow!

I actually would like to give this three and a half stars...I really enjoyed the story, with the new take on the Dracula legend. It's a great interpretation on the legend, and a way to make it fresh again. The diary concept was also great--there was such an internal element to all of the events that if you had had only one person giving a first person account, so much would have been missed. The characters were compelling, if a little dense at times, and the scenery was well imagined.I had a few

I'm not normally a fan of horror. Not that I don't like the genre, but I just never really found an author or horror novel that really made me want to find more books in the same genre.Then I read The Historian and found that horror can be about more than just shock moments and blood. That book melded historical fiction (one of my favorite types of fiction) with vampire lore and myths about Dracula and yeilded a book that's one of my favorite reads to date.Amazon recommended the Family Dracul

Ive tended to shy away from vampire fiction in recent years although I am a huge fan of the original Dracula by Bram Stoker and stories that take place in a similar vein (no pun intended). In other words, I enjoy the historical fiction aspects of Dracula, vampire lore, etc. much more so than the blood/guts, sexual innuendo/love triangles etc. that seem so common today.This novel is the first of a trilogy and fits my preferences very well. It takes place over the course of just a few weeks in
