Book Reviews of The Historian

Book Review: Read this before everybody else does!
Summary: 5 Stars

Fantastic new investigation/mytery in the style of the 'Da Vinci Code' but far more intelligent. A quest to find Dracula takes the reader from the US to Istanbul to Hungary to Bulgaria and of course, Transylvania (in modern Romania). This is a clever and compelling book with a 'Secret History' style dark psychological twist. This is destined to become a modern classic, and should rightfully be as popular as Stoker's 'Dracula'. There are few novels published these days which you will remember forever, this is one of them.
