About this listen
They are cool to the touch and alluringly beautiful in their ageless youth. Their laughter seduces, their brilliance beguiles. They guard the secrets of science and history, and the answers to the mysteries of life and death lie within their vastly superior knowledge. In centuries past, they were known as the Illuminati. They are the vampire.
Dr. John Gladstone, a scientist in Victorian London, is thrust into their world after his carriage runs over a young man of angelic beauty named Niccolo. When Niccolo kidnaps Gladstone's child and vanishes, the doctor must go in pursuit, with the help of his daughter, Ursula, who is enticed by the lure of eternal life, and Lady Hespeth, whose demure exterior hides a dangerous obsession. Why are the vampires taking children, and what is the connection to Gladstone's experiments with a deadly virus? And how can he possibly prevail against a race of immortal beings with power and intelligence infinitely beyond his own?
Michael Talbot's The Delicate Dependency (1982) is often cited as one of the best vampire novels ever written.

Story
Hovern Bog. People live in terror of it - especially the residents of Fenchurch St. Jude, the little village located at its edge. They think of it as a living being. When 2,000-year-old bodies are recovered from the bog, perfectly preserved, it is the discovery of a lifetime for archaeologist David Macauley. But close examination of the corpses reveals a curious fact: all were cruelly, mysteriously murdered, gnawed to death by some unimaginable creature.

Built by a madwoman during the Victorian era, Lake House is a 160-room mansion in the Adirondacks with stairways that lead nowhere, bizarre rooms designed to distort the senses, endless series of mazelike halls - and a century-long history of violent deaths. Lauren Montgomery, her son Garrett, and her new rock star husband Stephen Ransom have just arrived at Lake House, anticipating a long and relaxing summer. But what they don't know is that their rental home is actually a labyrinthine puzzle at whose center lurks something unspeakably evil....

Nearly everyone is familiar with holograms - three-dimensional images projected into space with the aid of a laser. Two of the world's most eminent thinkers believe that the universe itself may be a giant hologram, quite literally a kind of image or construct created, at least in part, by the human mind. University of London physicist David Bohm, one of the world's most respected quantum physicists, and Stanford neurophysiologist Karl Pribram, an architect of our modern understanding of the brain, have developed a remarkable new way of looking at the universe.

Ana and Reid needed a lucky break. The horrifically complicated birth of their first child has left Ana paralyzed, bitter, and struggling: with mobility, with her relationship with Reid, with resentment for her baby. That's about to change with the words any New Yorker would love to hear—affordable housing lottery. They've won an apartment in the Deptford, one of Manhattan's most revered buildings. Reid dismisses disturbing events and Ana’s deep unease and paranoia as the price of living in New York—people are odd—but he can't explain the needle-like bite marks on the baby.

It is autumn 1981 when inconceivable horror comes to Blackeberg, a suburb in Sweden. The body of a teenager is found, emptied of blood, the murder rumored to be part of a ritual killing. Twelve-year-old Oskar is personally hoping that revenge has come at long last—revenge for the bullying he endures at school, day after day. But the murder is not the most important thing on his mind. A new girl has moved in next door—a girl who has never seen a Rubik’s Cube before, but who can solve it at once. There is something wrong with her, though, something odd.

Demonstrating once again her gift for spellbinding storytelling, Anne Rice makes real for us a great dynasty of four centuries of witches - a family given to poetry and incest, murder and philosophy, a family that over the ages is itself haunted by a powerful, dangerous, and seductive being called Lasher who haunts the Mayfair women. Moving in time from today's New Orleans and San Francisco to long-ago Amsterdam and the France of Louis XIV, from the coffee plantations of Port-au-Prince to Civil War New Orleans and back to today, Anne Rice has spun a mesmerizing tale.

The dictatorial Augurs, once thought of almost as gods, were overthrown and wiped out during the conflict, their much-feared powers mysteriously failing them. Those who had ruled under them, men and women with a lesser ability known as the Gift, avoided the Augurs' fate only by submitting themselves to the rebellion's Four Tenets.

He speaks quietly, plainly, even gently . . . carrying us back to the night when he departed human existence as heir--young, romantic, cultivated--to a great Louisiana plantation, and was inducted by the radiant and sinister Lestat into the other, the "endless," life....

Helene Wecker's dazzling debut novel tells the story of two supernatural creatures who appear mysteriously in 1899 New York. Chava is a golem, a creature made of clay, brought to life by a strange man who dabbles in dark Kabbalistic magic. When her master dies at sea on the voyage from Poland, she is unmoored and adrift as the ship arrives in New York Harbor. Ahmad is a jinni, a being of fire, born in the ancient Syrian Desert. Trapped in an old copper flask by a Bedouin wizard centuries ago, he is released accidentally by a tinsmith in a Lower Manhattan shop.

A Must Read for the Vampire Aficionado
“I told you,” she said bitterly. “I warned you at the very beginning that you were blind and did not see what others would see.”
This is an absolute must read for the vampire aficionado. It should be better known.
The Good: the most original ideas about vampires I’ve ever read. My favorite, vampire monks in the Dark Ages hanging out safely in monasteries with their books.
The Great: an alternative history in which everything in the Library of Alexandria was preserved. (You know you were pissed off the first time you read about that... and every time you thought of it thereafter)
The Bad: it’s an exhaustive exercise in paranoia. It’s one lie after another after another. Also the MCs are dislikable, Ursula most of all. As both of these are best seller trends I’m again surprised more people don’t know about this book.
I’ll end with Niccolo’s words:
“Never trust the vampire, for everything they say and do is for some other purpose. They will play a cruel and enigmatic ‘game of the mind’ with you and it will be up to you to solve the puzzle...”

The Chatty Vampires? 🤔
Yes... a chatty affair. Not your typical vampire tale but entertaining none the less. The narrator does great impressions and really does a great job of bringing the listener into the world of the book. This is not an action packed book. It’s more of a passionately told tale of a man’s experience with vampires.

ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT
I listen to audible books on my drive to work, which is an hour. The book was so good that I couldn’t wait to go to and from just so I could hear more of it. It’s a great story.

"Nothing is as it seems."
Early on, the author, through more than one character, tells the reader that 'nothing is as it seems' and this is true right on through until the very last page.

Typical Vampire story but not...
I like this, it had a unique flavor with the vampire stories told over and over again. Yet it had an interesting twist to it. I will probably read it again someday.

Great Book!
I had no idea a vampire novel could be so philosophical and profound. I had heard this was the best ‘vampire’ novel ever written, and I have to agree with the sentiment.

One of the best vampire novels of all time
I don’t even know how to begin to describe what I felt while listening to this novel. It took me into a new world and then on a rollercoaster that made me question everything! If you are a fan of vampires I cannot rev come to this book enough

Don't judge this book by it's cover
I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily
left this review.
This was a book that I've wanted to read for a long time but either never got my hands on a good copy, or had too much going on at the time. So, when I had the opportunity to listen to the audio book, I jumped at the chance. I was familiar with Matt Godfrey's work and was quite excited for this book. It definitely has the same atmosphere (and setting) of Ann Rice's early novels. In fact, this book came out pretty close to The Vampire Lestat. Anyway, the dialog is appropriate for the setting and added a great period ambiance. All in all, this was just as good as I hoped. Worth the credit.
