Product Review
Drakulya, Dracula, Vlad Tepes or whatever you want to call him is not the main character in this book, but a father and daughter historian team who are searching for him within the secrets of history. The Historian brings together a classic tale of gothic suspense and terror, but without the usual blood spilled in every chapter. It's thoroughly entertaining as it transports listeners to other times and places where myth takes many forms and legend may become actuality.
Creepy and eerie, this novel haunts the reader by making its point very clear-the reader has all the power in the world, bringing a tale to life. Within these pages is contained one of the most engrossing and imaginative tales that brings the reader to feel as though they have been inducted into a secret society.
The Historian, a debut novel by Elizabeth Kostova, quickly caught the public's eye and headed for top lists and with good reason. This is that rare combination of fact and fiction, history, suspense, and the macabre, all taking place in darkly mysterious settings.
