This is a book I bought on a whim off Amazon, by Mike Mignola and Christopher Golden. I knew Mignola from his work on Hellboy.
It's a truly dark and macabre tale, well-written and compelling, but certainly not for everybody. I wouldn't read it if you are prone to nightmares... Apparently, they're making it into a movie.
I was taken with the opening scene, in which Lord Baltimore, injured amid the carnage of a WWI battlefield, is set upon by vampiric creatures. A chilling scene indeed. Recommended if you are a fan of dark fantasy, horror, or the like.
