Anno Dracula

The Anno Dracula series is an alternative history-horror novel series by English author Kim Newman, which is named after the first book in the series: Anno Dracula (1992). The series is based on characters from Bram Stoker's novel Dracula (1897), though in Newman's interpretation they fail to stop Count Dracula's conquest of Britain, resulting in a world where vampires are common and increasingly dominant in society. While Dracula is a central figure in the events of the series, he is a minor character in the books and usually appears in only a few climactic pages of each book. While many of the characters from Newman's Diogenes Club stories appear in the Anno Dracula novels, they are not the same as the ones in those stories, nor is the Diogenes Club itself the same.
