Dracula Unbound

Joe Bodenland has figured out how to manipulate time, a discovery that leads him to Utah and an impossible sixty-five-million-year-old human gravesite. It is here that he learns of the existence of a monstrous race of intelligent predators as old as the dinosaur, and of the remarkable "train" the undead creatures use to travel back and forth from a Paleolithic past to a monstrous far future in which Homo sapiens are enslaved cattle. With the fate of all humanity at stake, Joe commandeers the ghostly transportation and rides it back to Victorian England, where he enlists the aid of a powerful ally, the author Bram Stoker, in the battle to secure Earth. But to prevent the coming apocalyptic nightmare, they must first confront and destroy the most cunning and deadly being the world has ever known, Lord Dracula, the immortal vampire.

Brian W. Aldiss puts a bold new science fiction spin on Bram Stoker's classic tale of vampiric horror. An ingenious reinvention of the Nosferatu myth, “Dracula Unbound” is a breakneck thrill ride from one of the most revered names in science fiction and fantasy.
