Dracula The Un-Dead: The Un-Dead Audiobook

" fun read written by a stoker descendant. "

" Really enjoyed this book.It is just the type of proper Gothic horror that I like.A proper vampire tale where they are cruel and manipulative and thoroughly evil but beautiful and sexy as a top predator should be. "

" The only good thing about this book is the illustration on the cover. Everything else is horrible. "

" A badly written,badly researched non-sequel. Holt threw in everything he could to thrill the horror tastes of younger readers in 2012. He did this with no respect for the original, which he largely ignored in favour of 20th century movies, vampire trends and research books on Vlad the Impaler (which only sold because they cashed in on Bram's original book "Dracula" which had nothind to do with Vlad.Holt is merely an opportunist,Dacre a sell-out whose only contribution was his family name which Holt desperately needed to sell his "sequel".Holt wrote a screen play for another schlock horror movie not a novel in it's truest form,normally I wouldn't care, but after reading his arrogant interview where he places himself on a level with B.Stoker(the creator of modern vampire mythology)and thinks himself an intregal part of the vampire tradition, well I think that arrogant hack assumption is as true as his stories of winning a fight in early grade school by becoming the embodiment of Dracula (don't we all read the original Dracula by grade 2 ??) "

" I really liked this book, it had a quick pace that kept me interested. I loved the inclusion of historical details and people, including Bram Stoker himself. The addition of Elizabeth Bathory to the cast of villains is a great choice; the descriptions of her life help humanize and let the reader see how she became so twisted. I don't want to give too much away so I will only say that it is very interesting to see how the lives of all of the heroes from the original Dracula turn out, and how those experiences have affected each of them. "

" Fast paced book that I enjoyed. I wondered how it would hold up to the originaly and it did well, it brought in new elements that worked. "

" Decent setup but diverges too far from the original story which it claims to continue. Way too much emphasis on sex and on redeeming Dracula - both flying counter to the Victorian standards of the original. "

" Not as bad as I was given to believe. Perhaps it's a different experience for someone who's only seen the movies and not read the original. "

" I liked it. It was very interesting I would definetely recommend it. "

" I simple loved it :) "

" Being a fan of the original classic I found the sequel not the same but still really good. This is the way vampires should be. Not the Twillight vampires I have grown to despise. "

" Not as impressive as I was hoping a Dracula book would be. "

" I really enjoyed this story. I think it is worth the read, but don't expect it to be like the original. Nothing can compare to Dracula. "

" Fun sequel. "

" A worthy sequel to the old Dracula legend. Ties some loose ends together but the whole subplot of maybe Dracula was Jack the Ripper seemed unnecessary. "

" Jesus fucking Christ. "

" This book was so horrible I could barely finish it. "

" I found the writing brilliant but it relies to much on Dracula by Bram Stocker to be original. "

" A marvelous sequel that was worth waiting over 100 years to be written. "

" I liked where this book went. It was nice to learn more about Dracula, giving new insights to the 5 Q's. "

" As fan fiction it'd be forgivably trashy, but as an "official sequel" to the majesty of Dracula? Too ridiculous, too long, too boring. "

" If you have any feeling for the original Dracula at all, steer clear of this! Completely ridiculous - throwing in references to Jack the Ripper, Titanic, etc. "

" This book was easier to read maybe because it was written in this generation. "

" I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who has any great love for the orignal story. It picks up a little mid-point, becomes a little bit more exciting but then the end falls flat considerably. Overall I am kind of disappointed. I expected more. "
