Reading Turnbull Bay was like stepping back in time. I got attached to the characters only to see them threatened and hulmiliated by the vampire. Braun, the vampire, not only loves to kill but has to destroy all values of his victims as well. I enjoyed this novel. A must to read!

5.0 out of 5 stars Evil Vampires!, July 29, 2001

This review is from: Turnbull Bay: A Traditional Vampire Story (Paperback)

I like this novel a lot. Its realism impressed me. Unlike other novels where the characters seems to accept the existence of vampires, these characters had to be convinced. One was suspicious, but he thought the vampire was putting on, or playing games. And the vampire in this novel has normal sexual urges as if human, but a very warped human. To this vampire, sex is a sideline predator thing exceeded only by his need for blood to survive. The vampire doesn't sympathize with the human race. He knows he can't afford to. His mental powers are awesome and he uses them effectively to defeat his enemies. He doesn't like to just kill, he likes to torture his victims with sick mindgames first. I couldn't stop reading Turnbull Bay once I started.

5.0 out of 5 stars Vampire Tales, January 1, 2002

This review is from: Turnbull Bay: A Traditional Vampire Story (Paperback)

I'm glad that I purchased and read this novel. I found the characters to hold values that we all need and wish we had. What I liked the most was the way the characters first dealt witht the murders, not wanting to accept that the thing causing them could really exist. One character even thought the vampire was a an insane groupie-like pretending that he's a vampire.

Also, I felt the pain of the characters as they lost precious things to the vampire as the novel progresses.
This novel is definitely worth reading.
