Oh? What’s that you say? This is a novel, and the Lincoln diaries here are fiction? Oh. It’s a very nice mix of the original script, well-edited, and a dry, academic look at one of the greatest men in American history slaughtering the undead. With the mysterious delivery of Abe Lincoln’s hand-written diaries, covering several decades of life, love and vampire slaying, our author is able to give us an annotated guide to them.

It might just come down to one eager young man to rid his new country of such things, on his way to something he’s a bit more known for. But by some means or another North America is rife with the things – hiding in plain sight, as the older ones can bear sunlight, with the help of darkened glasses. That quote, on the Statue of Liberty, was probably not designed with the inclusion of vampires in mind. Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Summary: An amusing variant on the vampire novel, but one too far removed for fans of the genre to fall in love with.
