YOUNG BLOOD. London, Sydney, New York, Tokyo, Singapore, Toronto: Simon and Schuster, [1992]. Octavo, boards. First edition. Signed by Stableford. Vampire novel. "… An eighteen-year-old philosophy student named Anne Charet, newly come to college in England, seems to encounter and give substance to a vampire named Maldureve … But maybe, we soon discern this never happened … Almost uniquely among novels that feature vampires, Stableford's generically unclassifiable Bildungsroman-cum-scientific romance is about things that are important to us all: identity and self, the compulsive and corrosive power of desire, the nature of fear … and the hazards of seeing events exclusively through one's own narrow blinders, of forcing them into rigid interpretive frames they may not fit." - Michael A. Morrision, Necrofile: The Review of Horror Literature #13 (19964, p. 25. A fine copy in fine dust jacket. (#92911).
