Keeper of the King by Nigel Bennett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Without giving too much away, Keeper of the King is, to date, the only story I have come across that throws Vampires into the Arthurian Legend and it does so brilliantly. But don't expect too much about the knights of the round table as this is set in the 1990's.
As with all good modern tales of the Nosferatu Bennett throws in something extra to change the way the reader thinks about Vampires while maintaining a few blood sucking essentials to ensure the characters are still unmistakably our favourite undead creatures of the night. This combined with a bit of sex, romance, and a quest for a certain golden chalice keeps the reader's eyes adhered to the page long after the eyelids want to close for the night.
