Sometimes you just wait the “oceans of time” and the mark comes to you.

90. The Lost – Jonathan Aycliffe

The Lost is a fun sort of old school vampire tale. Michael Feraru is like an arrogant stand in for Jonathan Harker, one who just knows he’s meant for something important on his trip to reclaim his family estate in Romania. At one point his plan is to turn the castle into an orphanage – imagine that. A nice, drafty, and ill equipped for childcare fortress space in the Transylvanian Alps, I’m sure they’ll all get educated and adopted in a jiffy if they’re not eaten by wolves or Michael’s ancestors. Also, I say he’s a stand in because The Lost happens to be epistolary, much like Dracula. Although Michael’s new assistant Liliana is not at all a Renfield and they have a super fun sounding library in Castle Vliacu.

 

Why yes I did say “super fun sounding library,” Ozy, and I very much meant it.
