He lives discrete lifetimes bounded by decades of hibernation and steals blood from labs rather than committing murder. Weyland is a monster who must form an uneasy empathy with his prey in order to survive, and \u003ci\u003eThe Vampire Tapestry\u003c\/i\u003e is a story wholly unlike any you've heard before.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“The best vampire novel I've ever read.” —\u003ci\u003ePeter S.
