    I read this and wasn't quite sure I was going to like it. First it was about vampires and second it was written in the first person. I got 3 pages in and was hooked. I was so impressed by the book that I immediatly had to read 'Dracula' by Bram Stoker and was really disapointed with that book. I found that 'The Historian' found all those inner fears you don't know exist and expolited them fully- I was very scared at some points in the book, I also loved how I could follow the story on a map and see exactly where the characters were. I found the history really interesting and enjoyed this book immensly.

    The charcter are so brillant and yet so different and the scarest, is not Vlad Dracula (no he's the most attractive), but the Librarian. I enjoyed this book so much that I have read it four times and am now using it for my A-Level coursework. I strongly reccomend this book where your sense of good and bad gets utterly confused.

    I so totally agree! I listened to this one audio and it was very atmospheric. I loved it - it's on my favorites shelf. BTW, I like your avatar - Abby is one of my favorite TV characters of all time.

    I recently bought this and was immediately disheartened by many reviews putting it down and calling it ''long winded". However, your review has certainly changed my mind and I hope to get to it this summer. TY =]
