Dracula vs. Hitler

It's WWII and the Romanian people are suffering under brutal Nazi occupation forces. Dr. Van Helsing brings Dracula back from the dead with the deal that he can only kill Nazis. So the Count attired in a new opera cape joins forces with a band of intrepid resistance fighters. Imagine Inglourious Basterds mashed up with, well, Dracula. This fun, spooky romp is told in the same epistolary style as Stoker's original and each voice is unique and well written. Recommended By Kathi K., Powells.com

Ravaged by the Nazi Secret Service during World War II, Romanian resistance forces turn to one of their leaders, Professor Van Helsing for any way out. To fight these monstrous forces, Van Helsing raises a legendary monster from centuries of slumber... Prince Dracula himself. Once he was the ruler of Transylvania. Prince Vlad Dracul, is, above all else, a patriot. He proves more than willing to once again drive out his country s invaders. Upshot: No one minds if he drinks all the German blood he desires. In Berlin, when Hitler hears about the many defeats his forces are suffering at the hands of an apparent true vampire, he is seduced by the possibility of becoming immortal. Thus two forces are set upon a collision course, the ultimate confrontation: Superpower against superpower.
