A tale of Dracula’s bride(s) - who they are, how they were made, & how it ended.
You’re told in the first five pages how the story will end, but I was still enraptured & tense, waiting for the final blow.
Beautiful prose, a strong voice, & a character that deserved 300ish pages of contempt. Incredible story with great pacing, epic storytelling, wonderful attention to detail, & a perfect ending. Read it in one sitting!
