Ich liebe ja "Dracula". Keine Ahnung, wie oft ich das schon gelesen habe (und wie viele Verfilmungen ich schon gesehen hab :)), aber es packt mich immer wieder, wie raffiniert Stoker mit seiner Erzählweise Spannung aufbaut: Briefe, Tagebucheinträge, Berichte, der Leser erfährt nur, was die Schreiben...
The Historian gave an old story a new twist. It's a long-long-long narrative about vampire hunting. Not just a vampire, but the vampire--Count Vlad of the Order of the Dragon (aka Dracula).First, a little bit of summary. A lady (which remained nameless all through the book) recaptured a chapter in h...
A gothic horror classic. A book that predates Dracula by almost 100 years and was written by Mary Shelley when she was just 19 years old. Firstly, I LOVED the Penguin Classics Deluxe edition of this book. It had an amazing cover and started with a brief introduction of circumstances of how it came t...
I'd give this really a 2.9 because there were elements I liked about the book. I liked the historical aspect and the mystery aspect but fantasy/science fiction of Dracula still being alive?

It’s an intriguing ...

Andrew Marlow, by profession a psychiatrist who specializes in mental disorders in creative people, gets a new patient - acclaimed artist Robert Oliver, who has been arrested for attempting to slash a painting in the National Gallery. Other than a few cursory sentences on admission, Robert chooses ...
Listened to this on audio. Wow! Loved it. The narrators were fantastic with all the characters and accents. My favorite was, of course, Dracula. Or, as he said it, Dra-KOOL-ya.
I had forgotten how much I loved this book. (And am amazed that somehow I never added it to my books here.) In the early 1970's, a young woman finds some old papers and a mysterious book in her father Paul's study; getting up the nerve to ask him about them (she shouldn't have been poking around in...
