Carpathian Vampire Elder

Started this last Autumn after reading Kim Newman's excellent Anno Dracula. He's one of Vlad Tepes' elite guard - wearing the canines of fallen rivals on a string around his neck to prove it. If there's any justice the book will be adapted into a multi-million dollar HBO miniseries - it totally deserves to be.

  2. Gary, I can't recommend it enough. Newman's created a fantastic world which, despite all the literary and historical characters present, never feels over-populated or like it's trying to be too clever.

    Glad you like the pic too :)
