Fantastic! Vintage Saberhagen

Fred Saberhagen is a master storyteller. His Dracula series is as impressive as his Berserker and Swords series. Definitely a must-read....but so are all Fred's books.

Seance for a Vampire

Not the greatest book in the series. Liked later ones much better.

Not Saberhagen's best, but still worthy

I bought this book because I was blown away by his alternative telling of 'Frankenstein' (which appears, tragically, to be out of print.) It didn't live up to my first taste of Saberhagen, and so disappointed me.... but as a representative of the vampire and Holmesian genres, it's an original entry and a pleasant light read.

Extremely well written

I think that this book was well written and has alot of detail. This author has a very vivid imagination and has used it well. I think that it is material that could be made into movie. I very much enjoyed the book and would recommend it to anyone who like mysteries. The book does move a little slow in the beginning, but it picks up soon enough.
