1918.Graf von Dracula,expelled from Britain,is commander-in-chief of the Armies of Germany and Austria-Hungary,but
Lord Ruthven,his former disciple,remains
Prime Minister of Great Britain.
The War of the Great Powers is also a war
between the living and the dead,ancient magic and modern science,oppression and freedom.Over the Western Front,Allied aces fall to the feared flying monster,Baron von Richthofen.Embroiled in the greater and lesser conflicts are Edwin Winthrop,a young intelligence officer eager for fame and glory;Charles Beauregard,Edwin's mentor and old enemy of Dracula; Kate Reed,a radical vampire journalist; and the resurrected Edgar Allan Poe,commissioned by German High Command to write a fabulous biography of Manfred von Richthofen,the Bloody Red Baron.As the Baron increases his famous score,the workings of nations and the struggles of individuals intersect,climaxing with a battle that takes place in the air and in the hearts of men.Returning thirty years on to the world of Anno Dracula,Kim Newman presents a gripping alternate 20th Century where nations are ruled by undead monsters, mixing horror with politics,science fiction with romance,satire with warfare.
