5.0 out of 5 stars Clever Genre Mashing that is Great Fun
Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2017
Verified Purchase
First off, Kim Newman's earlier Anno Dracula novel is the best Dracula sequel ever written, and the final short story in this collection features recurring characters from Newman's Anno Dracula series, along with a brief appearance by Drusila of Buffy fame.

Other notable stories focus on a Superman who landed in Germany and has been imprisoned in Spandau Prison since surrendering himself to Eisenhower at the end of World War II, a group of investors who profit from sales of a watered-down version of the serum used by Dr. Jekyll, and a hacker who communicates over the internet with a clairvoyant who lived a century ago.

Kim Newman is a master of genre-mashing, and the stories in this book are clever and great fun. Highly recommended.

Love this series and always happy to find more.
This volume contains an Anno-Dracula story and a mix of other short stories, some also featuring classic monsters, as well as a few more modern horror stories.

It's short stories by one of the masters, Kim Newman. Some are funny, some scary, one very unexpected. There's never a dull moment. All of them are excellent twists on classic stuff. Buy it, read it. Kim is the best.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's a good collection but really
Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2017

It's a good collection but really, if the title is "Anno Dracula 1899 and Other Stories", readers are justified in expecting at least one self-contained Anno Dracula story. What we get instead is the first chapter of an upcoming full-length AD tale - effectively, a teaser ad for the next novel in the series. That was disappointing, but if you're a Newman fan, you'll still enjoy most of these stories.

2.0 out of 5 stars Erm...
Reviewed in India on April 20, 2024

This was another curious potpourri of writings that had somehow been brought together under the ‘Anno Dracula’ name— undoubtedly with the sole aim of bleeding that brand dry.
It contains eighteen works, plus a teaser for the next novel. These works belong to all sorts, touching all kinds of pop-culture creatures and horrors. Some are brilliant (obviously, since Newman is a brilliant writer), some drab, some painful bores. Unfortunately, even the better works suffer awfully due to the shoddy production. Dinoship (Dead Travel Fast) or Pocket Books (Famous Monsters, The Original Dr. Shade and Other Stories) used to produce them much-much better.
Unless you are an absolute admirer of Newman (like me), this is NOT an essential buy or read.

Had never heard of this author before and was really not sure what I'd bought, but I have to say I loved every story in this book!! Each one was like a window into a new and slick world filled with old archetypes, made me hungry to get into this strange world, now I am looking at getting the other Anno Dracula volumes. Well written, excellent package of short stories that I would strongly recommend to readers of classic horror novels, steampunk and retro sci-fi. If you searched any key-words and it brought you here - get this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A variety of weirdness
Reviewed in Canada on June 19, 2017

Some great and a few maybe not so great tales of the slightly helter skelter variety of alternate history. From a clever take on jack the ripper to a taste of a new Anno Dracula tale, Newman flashes his pop culture knowledge all over the place here. It's rare for me to at least like every story in a short story collection. Usually there are a few that don't do it for me. But these are pretty consistently good.
