"Helped redefine the vampire novel in the 80s. Streiber isn't the most elegant of prose stylists, but he can tell a story and really move you. Brilliant."
"Yes, the 'Game of Thrones' guy. Fantasy readers are so conservative sometimes, most of his fans have not read this 1980s classic. Alongside Streiber, it redefined the vampire novel for the modern age."
"Dan Simmons is, as a popular novelist, far better than Stephen King. When it comes to mastery of all genres, he nearly topples Richard Matheson. Great pageturning stuff."
"Forget all three film versions (yes kids, it's been around since the 1950s), especially the recent one. Matheson taught most of today's genre writers nearly everything they know."
"'Andy Warhol's Dracula' is for those who know their avant garde art, punk and pop art, so it's elitist but breathtakingly clever. Newman is more than a film critic, I tell you."
"Yes, it's breathless, adolescent and camp, but it is still a really great book, Like satie in a darkened room. Lovely. After this it all gets a bit silly though..."
"The most urbane and sophisticated vampire of them all strides across 5,000 years of history in these elegant short stories. Just buy every single Germain book you can get, you won't be sorry .."
