Sinopsis
Hailed by Stephen King as "scary and suspenseful" and "unputdownable," and by Peter Beagle, author of THE LAST UNICORN, as "The best vampire novel I have ever read," THE VAMPIRE TAPESTRY examines the classic monster as a biological, rather than supernatural, predator who awakens from hibernation every few decades needing to relearn human culture. After years of effort, the so-called Edward Lewis Weyland has gained a post as an anthropology professor and director of a sleep research lab. With reliable access to unsuspecting blood donors, he becomes complacent and makes a near-fatal error. First critically wounded by a strong and canny woman, and later imprisoned and humiliated, he begins a journey toward an empathy with his prey that threatens the foundations of his survival.
