Erebus rocked (for the most part).
Now? The Amityville Horror.
I'm only on page 43 - but is this supposed to be scary? I'm finding it hilarious. "Ahhhh! My windscreen wipers TURNED THEMSELVES ON! What the HELL is going on!!!!"
;D

Just started reading Dracula the Undead by Dacre Stoker and Ian Holt and am already dissatisfied with it.
(I am only reading it during the lunch hour at work).
They have relocated Dr Seward's asylum to Whitby!
It is clearly stated that Carfax (the house Harker has sold to Dracula) is next to the asylum, located in Purfleet, London.
The 'official sequel' is set some 20 years after Dracula's death and the hero is Quincey Harker.
So far, obviously, not impressed.

Early doors yet, but so far so good. I saw a couple of these secondhand recently - funny how a title such as this will appear from nowhere more than once - and then disappear.....

Anno Mortis, by Rebecca Levene.
Part of the Tomes of the Dead series from Abaddon books, this is set in Caligula's Rome, 40AD with a female gladiator uncovering a dark plot that involves missing slave bodies and the Egyptian Book of the Dead.
I think you know where this is going...
A great read, one that puts a new spin on the zombie genre. Highly recommended.

Kraken by China Mieville, author of the excellent Perdido Street Station.
An almost perfectly preserved speciman of giant squid is impossibly stolen from a London museum, and the curator is caught up between rival cults and the end of the world!
