The Vampire Tapestry
by Charnas, Suzy McKee
Hailed by Stephen King as "scary and suspenseful" and "unputdownable," and by Peter Beagle, author of THE LAST UNICORN, as "The best vampire novel I have ever read," THE VAMPIRE TAPESTRY examines the classic monster as a biological, rather than supernatural, predator who awakens from hibernation every few decades needing to relearn human culture. After years of effort, the so-called Edward Lewis Weyland has gained a post as an anthropology professor and director of a sleep research lab. With reliable access to unsuspecting blood donors, he becomes complacent and makes a near-fatal error. First critically wounded by a strong and canny woman, and later imprisoned and humiliated, he begins a journey toward an empathy with his prey that threatens the foundations of his survival.
