Post navigation ← FRIDAY’S FORGOTTEN BOOKS #663: A NIGHT IN THE LONESOME OCTOBER By Roger Zelazny & Gahan Wilson HAPPY HALLOWEEN & MIAMI DOLPHINS VS. This entry was posted in Uncategorized on Octoby george. If you’re a fan of Dracula this trilogy–especially The Revenge of Dracula–might just serve up the bite that you need! GRADE: B+Īka Bloodright : Memoirs of Micrea Son to Dracula As Tremayne, he is best known for his stories and novels featuring 7th century Irish religieuse Fidelma of Cashel. The Dracula trilogy is more of a prequel to Stoker’s Dracula but shares many of its themes and horrors. Peter Tremayne is the fiction pseudonym of Peter Berresford Ellis, a renowned Celtic scholar who has written over 30 books on the Ancient Celts and the Irish. The Peter Tremayne Dracula trilogy keeps to the story elements that Bram Stroker used. One of his best known works under his real name is The Cornish Language and its Literature, which is considered the definitive history of the language. How does the ancient relic connect Welsford with the Dracula’s quest for immortality? Welsford travels to Transylvania to found out and to rescue his lover. Upton Welsford then discovers the woman he loves seems possessed. The jade figurine brings nightmares to its owner. What Peter Tremayne lacks in precise entomological detail is made up for with his. The Revenge of Dracula begins when Upton Welsford, a British Diplomat, buys an enigmatic jade figurine. Tremayne makes identification simpler by giving her father cavities. Of the three books, I like the middle volume the best. Peter Berresford Ellis (aka, Peter Tremayne) wrote a Dracula trilogy forty years ago.

Frances Foster Books, 17. 4: Godwatch, by Greg Rucka, is another successful volume in the Rebirth era of the Wonder Woman series. All in all, the quality of the volume reaffirms the appeal of this run and serves as a reminder that every Wonder Woman fan should consider checking out this series. The artwork is not as impressive as in other volumes from this series but still manages to look alright. This volume manages to, once again, detail a narrative that works well on its own and as part of a larger storyline.
