|  | | Vrolok
Vrolok, the Slovakian word for Vampire may classify this book as horror fiction or paranormal but the content is historical fiction.
Vrolok takes readers on a journey into the past as we meet Isabella, the beautiful and independent woman who lives in Transylvania more than 500 years ago. Never one to obey rules, Isabella's curiosity leads her to the castle of Vlad Dracula where her life takes a dramatic turn. Vlad has led his troops in battle against the Turks and thirsts for power. Although married to Nicolae, Isabella is entranced by Vlad and is soon joined to him as she could be to no other.
This is not a blood and gore novel of vampires who stalk innocent victims under cover of night, but a literary tale of how Vlad and Isabella intermingle with some of history's most famous and notorious characters. Emotions run high in this tumultuous relationship and the two are often separated for years. Isabella has an inbred goodness that constantly arises throughout her long life, keeping her from becoming a shallow blood- thirsty monster. Over the centuries, the immortal Isabella spends time with playwright Kit (Christopher) Marlowe, the Medicis Godfather's of the Renaissance in Italy, Countess Elizabeth Bathory, Van Helsing of Holland, Wyatt Earp and many more colorful and larger than life historical figures.
