About the Author
Celia Rees revisited her teen interest in gothic stories of ghosts, the supernatural, and Bram Stoker's Dracula as inspiration for Blood Sinister. Celia taught English in Coventry secondary schools for over ten years, which she says provided her with ample writing inspiration. She has published numerous teen novels, including Witch Child. The author lives in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire. Her website is www.celiarees.com.
From AudioFile
Ellen has been ill for months, and no amount of testing can diagnose her illness. As she stays with her grandmother and reconnects with a childhood friend, this plucky, if sickly, teen discovers her ancestors private diaries and learns that vampires are no legend. Shirley Barthelmies narration is strong enough to articulate the flashbacks between present-day England and the Victorian era, so the listener can easily follow both story lines. Her Transylvanian accent is thick yet clear and falls just short of campy--which is perfectly appropriate for the story. Barthelmies pace and emotional tones enhance a novel that balances horror, mystery, and romance. J.M.S. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
