A refreshing change of pace.

Unique vampire tale has Revolutionary War era blood drinking doctor coming back to life as a vampire some two hundred years later and trying to adjust to a new world and a new way of life. Recommended.

john russos best to date

great vampire story.........this tale of a revolutionary war era vampire come back to life in the present day will have you turning the pages like crazy........the changes of the past two hundred years are shocking to the vampire upon his''awakening''[especially the fact that therebel colonists had defeated the british,which is unacceptable to a follower of king george like himself.....]but he does adjust to th twentieth century rapidly,and he has some converts.......and also a detective who vowed to catch him at all costs after he viciously murders a toddler........it has a surprising ending,so,if you can locate a used copy of this book somewhere,read it!
