4.0 out of 5 stars a classic, Jun 17 2003
A truly excellent book made up of three related novellas from the 'life' of Dr Edward Weyland. Entertaining, intelligent, flawless - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Surprisingly this author has also written a light vampire romance under the name 'Brand' - called 'The Ruby Tear' (which I have yet to read)...

2.0 out of 5 stars Not enough to sink my teeth into..., Mar 28 2002
Does anyone think that Dr. Weyland is a whiney, clumsy and sometimes bratty vampire? I just couldn't get into this book. I would read it, put it down, not come back to it for weeks, until I finally got through it all. I can't explain it, I just wasn't interested in him, or any of the other people in this book. Above anything, I love vampire books, and this book just didn't cut it for me. About the only thing I found interesting was how he fed. Not in the the traditional fang in throat method, but a clever "tongue stinger" type device. Other than that, the rest just faded away.

5.0 out of 5 stars A vampire walks among us, Aug 12 2001
By M. A. Ramos (Florida USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The Vampire Tapestry is the story of dream researcher and vampire Dr. Edward Weyland. This is a very unique vampire story. Unlike the horror stories we are use to, here we have a complicated creature without fangs or any of the other things we expect; but he still needs blood. The main character, the vampire, gets kidnapped and after escaping begins talking with a psychologist. He is not the stereotyped vampire at all and the author does not make him sad, pitiful, or sexual in any way. A very good read and something different. This type of vampire could actually exist...

5.0 out of 5 stars THE vampire novel.
I treasure my copy of The Vampire Tapestry. People that I have lent it to always say, "You were right - it's amazing. It's so real. It could be a real person. Read more

Wow! This book takes a very unusual and very well plotted path to the vampire tale. Reminds me in spots of Nancy Baker's work, but this is a better written book with some... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Vampire Tapestry
By far one of the very best books I have ever read. I think Stephen King puts it best with the comment of "Unputdownable". Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Unusual, but readable.
The premise of _The Vampire Tapestry_ is interesting enough, and makes the book worth reading - a presentation of the vampire not as a supernatural creature but instead some... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars A Classic
Probably the best of the "revisionist" vampire novels. The writing is excellent throughout: at times, especially at the end, it becomes quite haunting. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the classic books on vampires
Told from the vampire's point of view, this is a must read. A novel that you will not be able to put down. One of the classics!

4.0 out of 5 stars A truly orginal vampire
Ms. Charnas creates here a really unique monster. Her predator is so believable, it seems possible. This is not a brooding creature (like the Anne Rice variety), but a cunning... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Original refreshing and Better than Lestat
I have to admit that although I enjoyed Anne Rice's best selling Vampire series, this book is much better!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Realistic, yet captivating!
What a refreshing book in this genre of seduction and fangs. The vampire as an evolutionary branch, being a lone member of his species, struggling to survive. Read more
