When Bram Stoker was writing his famous novel, 'Dracula',at the end of the 19th century he received a visitor named Joe Bodenland.While the real Count Dracula came from a distant past, Bodenland arrived from Stoker's future,on a desperate mission to save humanity from the Undead. This great adventure merges supernatural horror with breathtaking science fantasy.The chief characters are Stoker,Bodenland,and Dracula himself,shrouded in a wickedness bred by centuries of evolution.Involved in the accelerating pace of events is Bodenland's family - his wife,lured beyond death,and the young newly-weds,Larry and Kylie,confronting a stormy marriage. Bram Stoker joins Bodenland in a crusade to exterminate all vampires once and for all.But the trail which begins in Utah in the 21st century ends up far away in space and time,in a climax of destruction which changes the world for ever - and its inhabitants with it. This paradoxical quest beyond life,death and time itself is Brian Aldiss at his romantic and imaginative best.
