More soap opera than horror, but it's a fun trip,
By Vinster (Jersey City, New Jersey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dracula Returns! (Paperback)
Just finished this book- and it's not too bad. This is the first book in Robert Lory's Dracula series (I have books 1-8 from this series, only read the first book, don't know if there's a book 9 or above).
This reads more like a soap opera than a horror novel, still I got a big kick out of it. Without giving too much away: a wheelchair-bound scholarly man with strong beliefs in the occult receives a mysterious visit one day by Dracula's familiar (a woman that takes the form of a cat). From there it's off to Transylvania to resurrect Dracula. SPOILER WARNING- - Sure this novel has it's goofy moments: the protagonist implants Dracula with a device that will drive a wooden stake through his heart should he disobey orders; Dracula's familiar is an expert in reading minds/mind control; Dracula is used as a pawn for personal revenge & eventually the plot ends up with Dracula killing off modern-day (well, modern day for the 1970's) gangsters :) LOL- isn't this enough to pique your interest :) I'm actually looking forward to reading the next book in this now out-of-print series. It's a pretty quick read & ends with a pseudo cliff-hanger type ending- oh my, what will happen next? :)

Here is the Back of the Book Blurb,

This review is from: Dracula Returns! (Paperback)
The year is 1883. In a south Romanian village, three men and a girl were gathered in an old crypt. They watched fascinated as a wooden stake was driven into a long dead corpse. With an inhuman cry, Count Dracula departed this world. But the strange, unwinking eyes of a black cat watched their efforts derisively.
In the year 1938, a young policeman on special duties was clubbed and trown into the dark waters of New York's vicious dockland. Miraculously he lived, but was condemned forever to a wheelchair. His twisted thoughts turned to the occult. This man's name was Damien Harmon. A man for a terrible purpose.... To bring the Master to life again, and to unleash his terror on unsuspecting twentieth American. Could the Professor turn his back on the call? This is the first in a spine chilling series about THE RETURN OF DRACULA.
