<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A thrilling reinvention of the vampire novel by the master of modern fantasy, "Fevre Dream" is the spellbinding tale of a vampire's quest to unite his race with humanity, of a garrulous riverman's dream of immortality, and of the undying legends of the steamboat era and a majestic, ancient river.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>A THRILLING REINVENTION OF THE VAMPIRE NOVEL BY THE MASTER OF MODERN FANTASY, GEORGE R. R. MARTIN</b><br> <b> </b><br> Abner Marsh, a struggling riverboat captain, suspects that something's amiss when he is approached by a wealthy aristocrat with a lucrative offer. The hauntingly pale, steely-eyed Joshua York doesn't care that the icy winter of 1857 has wiped out all but one of Marsh's dilapidated fleet; nor does he care that he won't earn back his investment in a decade. York's reasons for traversing the powerful Mississippi are to be none of Marsh's concern--no matter how bizarre, arbitrary, or capricious York's actions may prove. Not until the maiden voyage of <i>Fevre Dream </i>does Marsh realize that he has joined a mission both more sinister, and perhaps more noble, than his most fantastic nightmare--and humankind's most impossible dream.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A novel that will delight fans of both Stephen King and Mark Twain . . . darkly romantic, chilling and rousing by turns . . . a thundering success."--Roger Zelazny <p/> "An adventure into the heart of darkness that transcends even the most inventive vampire novels . . . <i>Fevre Dream</i> runs red with original, high adventure."--<i>Los Angeles Herald Examiner</i> <p/> "Stands alongside Anne Rice's <i>Interview with the Vampire</i> as a revolutionary work."--<i>Rocky Mountain News</i> <p/> "Engaging and meaningful."--<i>The</i> <i>Washington Post Book World</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>George R.
