Fangland

I did not really care much for Fangland: A Novel by John Marks. I listened to the audio version performed by the author John Marks, Ellen Archer, and Simon Vance. The audio book is performed as best as can be with such weak tea.

This is supposed to be a "reimagining" of the classic Dracula story. I don't mind over much an author updating a novel if it brings something new, but this novel was just boring. The characters were so random and inconsistent it was absolutely impossible for me to care a whit about this story at all. To me this was a story about a man who hated his chosen profession and now that he is no longer doing the job wants the entire world to know how horrible it was. I was just not interested in the listening to that kind of passive-aggressive nonsense.

If you are really interested in the story of Dracula, just read Dracula.
