Title: A Wannabe Lestat?
Review: The problem with this book is that in trying to provide a scientific plausibility for the existence of vampires, it sticks too closely to Anne Rice's model: It almost comes across as a propaganda piece for her Chronicles (she has also authored several other books relating to Rice's works).Ramsland only seems concerned with the Anne Rice literary model of vampire, turning it into something almost like a comic book superhero more suited to the "X-Men" than any kind of creature with the supernatural trappings that make vampires interesting in the first place.A fairly useless book for vampirological research and one for the Vampire Chronicles completist only.
