The Mammoth Book of Dracula

Edited by Stephen Jones. Illustrated by Martin McKenna.

"The Mouth is redder than ever, for on the lips are gouts of fresh blood, which trickle from the corners and run over the chin and neck..."
—from Dracula: or the Un-Dead by Bram Stoker

As the millennium approaches, how will the King of Vampires adapt to the social and technological changes that are already shaping the beginning of the 21st century? Is it possible that the Count's condition can be cured by modern medicine? How does the mythology perpetuated by literature and movies affect the existence of a real bloodsucker? What if Dracula found himself ruler of a world controlled by vampires? Or perhaps political and ecological catastrophe will result in the Count's final destruction? This special centenary tribute to the World's Greatest Vampire collects together for the first time more than 2000,000 words of Dracula fiction plus a long-lost version of Dracula from the original creator, Bram Stoker, presented here for the very first time since 1897.
