5.0 out of 5 stars Why is this book out of print?, 14 Jul 2004
By Annette (Co. Dublin Ireland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Anno Dracula (Paperback)
I bought Kim Newman's book 'Dracula Cha Cha Cha' a couple of years ago, and enjoyed it so much I resolved to buy the other books in the series. However, they appear to be out of print, and 'Anno Dracula' was only available through Amazon's (excellent) second hand book sales facility.
I was delighted when the book arrived, and the book itself lived up to my anticipation. There are so many literary and historical allusions to the era (1880s / 1890s )and part of the fun is seeing how many you know or can understand. They add to rather than detract from the excellent story telling.
This book should really be reissued.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best Vampire book you will ever read!, 11 Jul 2002
By Darryl Still "daxvondrac" (Bucks) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Anno Dracula is the first (and best) of a thrilling troligy from Newman, set in Victorian times, the old Queen has remarried, but not to British gentry, but to the famous bloodsucking Count. A fragile peace exhists between "Warm bloods" and Vampire's but someone is committing grusome murder in the alleyways of London and both sides believe it is someone from the other side.

Most of England's most famous Victorians feature in this excellently written tale.

A Fascinating theory well developed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Anno Dracula, 6 Mar 2006
This review is from: Anno Dracula (Paperback)
This takes up the notion that Van Helsing and the gang failed in their attempts to stop Dracula from taking over the British Empire. A gripping read which moves quickly and builds to a fine climax. This also takes in many other literary figures, Jeckyll and Hyde, Allan Quatermain etc. which initially I found irritating but it all contributes to the sense of a time and place changed irrevocably. This also has a sense of humour without being flippant or undercutting the impact of the nasty events that take place. Well worth reading, particularly if you've read Bram Stoker's Dracula.
