"1850s vampire story by writer of Game of Thrones series."
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This was written in 1982, and is nothing like the Game of Thrones series. It is a vampire story, with plenty of violence, set amongst riverboats on the Mississippi, with a clearly drawn and interesting historical setting (slaves, race issues, the river trade). An odd combination, and you'd have to like both sorts of stories, but written well.

Description

A THRILLING REINVENTION OF THE VAMPIRE NOVEL BY THE MASTER OF MODERN FANTASY, GEORGE R. R. MARTIN   Abner Marsh, a struggling riverboat captain, suspects that something’s amiss when he is approached by a wealthy aristocrat with a lucrative offer. The hauntingly pale, steely-eyed Joshua York doesn’t care that the icy winter of 1857 has wiped out all but one of Marsh’s dilapidated fleet; nor does he care that he won’t earn back his investment in a decade. York’s reasons for traversing the powerful Mississippi are to be none of Marsh’s concern—no matter how bizarre, arbitrary, or capricious York’s actions may prove. Not until the maiden voyage of Fevre Dream does Marsh realize that he has joined a mission both more sinister, and perhaps more noble, than his most fantastic nightmare—and humankind’s most impossible dream.
