A VAMPIRE CHRISTMAS CAROL
Book ID/图书代码： 14780011B48887
English Summary/英文概要： Ebenezer Scrooge has never been known for the greatness of his heart. A miser, a leech, a penny-pinching old coot... Say what you will about him, though—he’s never actually sucked someone’s blood.
That dubious honor belongs to the vampires who surround him, preying on the weak and laying traps for the strong. They’ve dogged his footsteps since he was born, driving him from the love of his friends, family, and faithful fiancée.
Now, on Christmas Eve, Scrooge’s old friend Jacob Marley rises from the grave to warn him about the evil gathering around him. With three mysterious spirits to guide him, he rediscovers his lost love Belle, toiling fearlessly as a seamstress by day and vampire hunter by night. He sees the secrets of his nephew Fred and his clerk Bob Cratchit, who risk their lives as Belle’s loyal soldiers. And he learns of the plot mounting to attack all of them, starting with the innocent sacrifice of Bob’s son Tiny Tim…
Scrooge has only one night to save himself and all that he once treasured—but if he can vanquish the vampires, he might finally earn back the love he cast away…

Awards/获奖情况：“Charles Dickens may not have had vampires in mind when he wrote A Christmas Carol, but that’s fine, as author Gray makes Ebenezer Scrooge and vampire slaying a perfect match in this tale. If you’re familiar with the original book, the dialogue here is comfortable, yet it takes on a new perspective. Generally preferring classics to remain as such, this reader found A Vampire Christmas Carol to be respectful of the original story while revamping the narrative, thereby creating a lot of fun thrills and chills that will have readers considering Ebenezer in a whole new way.” – RT Book Reviews, 4 Stars
