• Covenant With the Vampire

  Jeanne Kalogridis

  
  This cilling first title in an exciting new trilogy is a rich and terrifying historical novel set fifty years before the opening of Bram Stocker's "Dracula".
  
  At the castle of Prince Vlad Tsepesh, also known as Dracula, Vlad's great nephew Arkady has recently taken over the job of managing the thriving, busy estate. The ties in the Dracul family are strong and Arkady is honored to care for his beloved, though strange, great-uncle...until he begins to realize what is expected of him in his new role--a dilemma too terrible to contemplate. Arkady's newborn son is being groomed to take his place in this ghastly fate; he knows that he must fight Dracula, even if it means death.
  
   

• Children of the Vampire

  Jeanne Kalogridis

  
  With "Covenant with the Vampire", Jeanne Kalogridis launched a thrilling new vampire trilogy that takes on one of the most intriguing horror classics of all time - Bram Stoker's "Dracula". Haunting, sensuous, and compulsively listenable, this debut novel was published to critical acclaim, and established Kalogridis as a writer to be reckoned with in vampire fiction. Now "Children of the Vampire", the dark and stylishly erotic second book in the series, delves even deeper into the terrifying mysteries behind Dracula.
  
  It is Amsterdam, 1871, twenty-five years before the start of Stoker's novel, and twenty-five years following Arkady Tsepesh's flight from his family's ancestral castle with his wife and young son, Stefan, after learning that he and his family are bound by an ancient covenant to serve their ancestor, Prince Vlad Tsepesh - Dracula. Now a vampire, Arkady has tried to break the covenant and failed. Separated from his beloved wife and son, he has one all-consuming desire - to destroy Vlad before he draws son Stefan into eternal service through the blood ritual. He tracks Vlad and his kidnapped son to Transylvania as he seeks to free his family and put an end to the terrible covenant - even if it means he must destroy his own son.
