David has done a fang-tastic job of matching the style and mood of the original book, while also making it more cohesive by building up the sense of the vampire as a threat throughout. So it's no longer just a dungeon bash. Now it really feels like you might find Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing around the next corner. (Possibly with Jack MacGowran and Alfie Bass not all that far away.)
You can get the new edition exclusively from Megara, while the original version is available from Fabled Lands Publishing on Amazon. Take your pick.
Congratulations David Walters on this and other work. David is also fantastic in the way he engages with fans and others (such as yours truly).
ReplyDeleteI am really looking forward to this one. One question, while I recognize that the hardcover is exclusive to Megara, will Fabled Lands LLP release a softcover version of the augmented book, much in the way that was done with the "Way of the Tiger" series?
ReplyDeleteIt would be tricky for us to have to figure out the share of revenue to go to David Walters, so probably not unless there's a lot of demand for it.
DeleteIs the book actually out yet? I don't see it listed on Megara's site.
ReplyDeleteYou got me there. I don't know. Maybe best to ask Mikael Louys on Facebook or via Megara.
