Title: A desecration of a classic!
Review: There have been some pretty lame attempts to write sequels to Bram Stoker's classic DRACULA, but this is one that borders on blasphemy! It reeks of Anne Ricean sub-par eroticism and Fred Saberhagen's ill-advised revisionism, as well as just being a bad story. It's a shame that Stoker's novel was never officially copyrighted in the U.S., and that the international copyrights have all lapsed. At least then the Count would be safe from well-meaning clods and talentless hacks like Bergstrom. You want good DRACULA pastiches? Check out Kim Newman's ANNO DRACULA books and stories, or Jeanne Kalogridis' DIARIES OF THE FAMILY DRACUL trilogy.
