A must for mavens of the vocally-told vyrdolak tale, this marvelous anthology includes narratives ranging in time from the Medieval to modern, with plots from the whimsical to the romantic to the horrific. The performers are well suited to their individual tasks and deliver intriguing portrayals and readings. Especially noteworthy is Stephanie Beacham's multiple class/ethnic depictions of British characterizations in "Madeleine." The collection includes:
"Bite Me Not or Fleur de Fur" by Tanith Lee; performer Susan Anspach; a castle is accosted by a nocturnal nemesis.
"Food Chain" by Nina Kiriki-Hoffman; performer Karesa McElheny; the maternal is eternal.
"Moonlight in Vermont" by Esther Friesner; performer Joe Barnett; a teenage vampire stakes his life on Yankee ingenuity.
"Madeleine" by Barbara Hambly; performer Stephanie Beacham; a vicious Victorian vampire finds that her cruelty may have undreamed of consequences.
"Victims" by Kristine Kathryn Rusch; performer Richard Cox; a political operative is vamped by a vampire.
"Seat Partner" by Chelsea Quinn Yarbro; performer Loretta Swit; a lover of vampire lore encounters a count.
"Midnight Mass" by F. Paul Wilson; perfomer Theodore Bikel; a priest and a rabbi wage holy war against unwholesome denizens of the dark (contains graphic violent and sexual images).
