Description
Stoker's Wilde West is a paranormal alternative history novel that brings together two iconic figures from literature in a thrilling adventure. When their monster-hunting days are thought to be behind them, Oscar Wilde and Bram Stoker return to their normal lives, only to be pulled back into the world of the supernatural once more.
A series of events is set off by a train robbery carried out by a band of vampire gunslingers, putting Bram on the run and leading to a rescue party led by Oscar. As they try to evade an unstoppable vampire bounty hunter who rides a dead, reanimated horse, their old ally Robert Roosevelt and his nephew Teddy find themselves drawn into the chaos.
This gripping novel is suited to readers of paranormal alternative history, with well-drawn characters and strong world-building that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Longlisted for The Guardian's Not the Booker Prize 2020, Stoker's Wilde West is a compelling read from Flame Tree Press.
