Anno Dracula: The Bloody Red Baron

"Kim Newman's Anno Dracula is back in print, and we must celebrate. It was the first mash-up of literature, history and vampires, and now, in a world in which vampires are everywhere, it's still the best, and its bite is just as sharp. Compulsory reading, commentary, and mindgame: glorious." - "Politics, horror, and romance are woven together in this brilliantly imagined and realized novel. Newman's prose is a delight, his attention to detail is spellbinding." - “Stephen King assumes we hate vampires; Anne Rice makes it safe to love them, because they hate themselves. Kim Newman suspects that most of us live with them… is the definitive account of that post-modern species, the self-obsessed undead.” - “ will leave you breathless... one of the most creative novels of the year.” - “Powerful... compelling entertainment... a fiendishly clever banquet of dark treats.” - 'A ripping yarn, an adventure romp of the best blood, and a satisfying… read' - "The most comprehensive, brilliant, dazzlingly audacious vampire novel to date. 'Ultimate' seems an apt description... a is at once playful, horrific, intelligent, and revelatory." - "A marvelous marriage of political satire, melodramatic intrigue, gothic horror, and alternative history. Not to be missed." - "Once you start reading this Victorian-era thriller, you will not be satiated until you reach the end." - "Anno Dracula is the smart, hip Year Zero of the vampire genre's ongoing revolution." - "Kim Newman brings Dracula back home in the granddaddy of all vampire adventures. Anno Dracula couldn't be more fun if Bram Stoker had scripted it for Hammer. It's a beautifully constructed Gothic epic that knocks almost every other vampire novel out for the count." - "The most interesting take on the Dracula story... to date. Recommending this one to all those that love Dracula and historical fiction!" - -- WAR IS HELL... It is 1918 and Graf von Dracula is commander-in-chief of the armies ofGermany and Austria-Hungary.
