Recenzii
"Before the would fell in love with vampires, Chelsea Quinn Yarbro's Saint-Germain was the wisest, noblest, finest vampire of them all. When all the fashionable vampires have been staked and forgotten, I am certain that Saint-Germain will still be walking through history, thrilling and delighting those of us who love the dark fantastic."--Neil Gaiman"Quinn Yarbro is one of our finest writers and craftpersons, incapable of a slack paragraph, or a fuzzy thought. Everything is perfectly focused, everything is expertly accomplished. And the Count remains a vibrantly original character, one of the greatest contributions to the horror genre."--Peter Straub"The detailed historical knowledge characteristic of the series is evident, complemented by highly literate eroticism." --"Publishers Weekly" on "Commedia della Morte""The characters are richly described and brought to life. Even if the reader has not read any other books in the Count Saint-Germain series, this one stands on its own merits. A pleasure to read."--"Booklist" on "An Embarrassment of Riches""A meticulous novel, An Embarrassment of Riches brought to mind an elaborate version of The Historian, told from the vampire's perspective."--"All Things Urban Fantasy""Yarbro's compelling prose and meticulously researched setting combine effectively for a vivid historical tale."--"Publishers Weekly" on "An Embarrassment of Riches""You might compare Yarbro's style to Anne Rice in her vampire tales, where the plot is character driven." --"Shelf Life" (London, Ontario) on "Borne in Blood""A darkly poetic blend of historical fiction, erotic romance, and literary horror. One of the beauties of Yarbro's Saint-Germain saga is that every novel is basically a stand-alone story. Those looking for a highly intelligent, tastefully understated erotic horror will be absolutely blown away."--"BookPage" on "Roman Dusk"
