5.0 out of 5 stars Satisfy your hunger, Nov 7 2006
By Janice Bashman - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vampire Universe (Paperback)
If you hunger for Mythological creatures then look no further than Vampire Universe:The Dark World of Supernatural Beings That Haunt Us, Hunt Us, and Hunger for Us. Vampire Universe is an encyclopedic compendium that covers everything you ever wanted to know and more about these creatures and includes wonderful artwork to suplement the text. Jonathan Maberry delivers again with this fantastic book.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book references nothing, July 25 2010
By Michel Aaij - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vampire Universe (Paperback)
This book is supposed to be a reference guide--instead, it's a bunch of lurid nonsense. For instance, I read that the Greenland Adlet are "the hideous offspring of an unholy union of an Inuit woman and a demonically possessed red-haired dog." Hmm, sure--except that they're not hideous, the union was not unholy, and the dog was not demonically possessed. Then, the "litter seemed to embody evil"--no, there is no evil in the original story whatsoever. "The woman, horrified by her offspring," puts them on rafts and sets them out to sea--no, she wasn't horrified, she was trying to save them from her father, who, she feared, might kill them (as the final chapter in a long cycle of revenge).

Why do I take offense? Because this is a really important myth for a people, and this nonsense is culturally denigrating. What you're reading is some dumb white male's fantasy of what others ought to think if only they were a bit more like him. Spend your money on something else, please.
