Description

An Apple Books Classic edition.

Few characters have seized readers’ imaginations quite like Count Dracula of Transylvania, the hero of Bram Stoker’s classic. The 1897 novel put vampires front and center on the cultural map, providing direct inspiration for an entire subgenre of bloodsucker fiction - including blockbusters like theTwilight series and Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles - and spawning hundreds of movie adaptations!

Stoker’s novel is a thrill ride, following Dracula as he moves from Transylvania to England in search of fresh blood, while a small but dedicated group attempts to thwart him. Want more Stoker? Check out his great-grandnephew Dacre Stoker’s 2018 novel, Dracul.

    This book is pure beauty. The writing style is calculated and precise In its wonder. The plot pulls you in and connects you to the story as it is your own. At the end, you are crying, tears of joy and sadness and finality.

    As soon as you get used to the grammar and vocabulary of the English language used at the time of its writing, the story is unstoppable. It will keep you entrapped until the very end.
  • Fantastic!!

    Definitely a classic! I will say, however, be informed that this book is written in the format of letters, diary entries, memorandums and such. I write this because I did not know this fact and I struggled with the format and, once, I decided to put the book down because of it. I made the mental shift and eventually the characters tell you why it’s written this way and I lends an entirely new light to the book that just catapults it to a new enjoyment level. Additionally, I love how the format of diary entries does not give us insight to the count since it is only through recollection of experiences, that we only experience the count a handful of times. GREAT GREAT BOOK.

    I loved the use of diary entries to keep us apprised of what was going on. I couldn’t put it down.

    A page turner of the highest quality. You will be drawn into 19th century England while reading the diaries and letters of the main characters. The author manages the many viewpoints without making the reader confused and never allows you to be bored. At the end you probably won’t sleep without garlic in your room. 😉
  • Great Book

    Easy to read and engaging. I really thought this would be a more difficult read just based on how old the book is, but it was a breeze! I highly recommend this book if you like the horror/action genre.
