Author A.F. Stewart has managed to accomplish a none-to-easy task in the realm of the vampire novels. She has managed to create a unique and captivating voice in a realm populated mainly by Anne Rice and Laurell K. Hamilton clones substituting melodramatic whining and gratuitous sex for depth and substance.
Chronicles of the Undead offers the reader a closer look at the lives of two Victorian era vampires residing in London, and the people whose lives intersect with theirs, through a series of di...more

Some books are printed in just the right format, and Chronicles of the Undead, by AF Stewart, is one such book. The slender, over-sized paper-back feels just right doubling as a diary in the reader’s hands. And the large type-face fits the sparse journalistic writing perfectly.
I’d read the first chapter online before receiving my own copy of the book. Any doubts I had about how the writing style would work in a complete novel were soon laid to rest (together with various hapless women of the nig...more

These days when people think of vampire books they think of emo teenage angst-ridden romance yarns like "Twilight" instead of classics such as "Interview With the Vampire" or the granddaddy of them all--"Dracula." With "Chronicles of the Undead", AF Stewart goes back to those traditional favorites to spin a short, breezy, but satisfying yarn about a family cursed by vampires.

Samuel, the father, Edmund, his son and Charlotte, Samuel’s granddaughter and Edmund’s daughter, comprise the main Harrington family diary writers. The story begins in London, England in 1793 with a rather normal day in...more

Chronicles of the Undead is a decently good short story. It's a diary in three parts. The first part is about Samuel Harrington, the father who becomes a vampire. The second part is about Edmund Harrington, the son who becomes a vampire hunter. The third part is about Charlotte Harrington, the granddaughter who follows in her father's footsteps. I love reading stories in diary formats, and this book was no exception. It made for a quick, fun read. I didn't have a favorite character. The characte...more
