Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter | Seth Grahame-Smith

Indiana, 1818. Moonlight falls through the dense woods that surround a one-room cabin, where a nine-year-old Abraham Lincoln kneels at his suffering mother's bedside. She's been stricken with something the old-timers call "Milk Sickness.""My baby boy..." she whispers before dying.Only later will the grieving Abe learn that his mother's fatal affliction was actually the work of a vampire.When the truth becomes known to young Lincoln, he writes in his journal, "henceforth my life shall be one of rigorous study and devotion. I shall become a master of mind and body. And this mastery shall have but one purpose..." Gifted with his legendary height, strength, and skill with an ax, Abe sets out on a path of vengeance that will lead him all the way to the White House.While Abraham Lincoln is widely lauded for saving a Union and freeing millions of slaves, his valiant fight against the forces of the undead has remained in the shadows for hundreds of years. That is, until Seth Grahame-Smith stumbled upon The Secret Journal of Abraham Lincoln, and became the first living person to lay eyes on it in more than 140 years.Using the journal as his guide and writing in the grand biographical style of Doris Kearns Goodwin and David McCullough, Seth has reconstructed the true life story of our greatest president for the first time-all while revealing the hidden history behind the Civil War and uncovering the role vampires played in the birth, growth, and near-death of our nation.

Wow!! Just finished the audiobook which has an author interview at the end. I am so happy I finally decided to read this book. Highly recommend. It was fascinating. It made me cry. It made me think about how little time has really gone by from the years of slavery and it made me horrified that it went on a mere 100 years before my birth. I‘m still reading the physical copy bc I want to reinforce some stuff in my brain and write others down.

Interesting concept, of course. I saw the movie several years ago, and it was pretty good. The ending of this book really fizzled out for me. The narration style got really dry. It was also really gory, which I didn‘t particularly enjoy.

This book excellently weaves the true aspects of Lincoln‘s life with the fantasy elements of vampire hunting. The story follows his true timeline, but uses the idea of vampires and vampire hunters to explain why certain events took place.

Oct #DoubleSpin & Nov #BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks Historical events twisted in a vampire world, hard at the beginning to connect Abraham Lincoln in this world where most bad vampires wanted to keep the slavery and he would kill them. During reading, I reviewed some of the historical events mentioned. It was a genius idea. Entertaining reading for my vampire mood at this time. Movie adaptation is far from the book idea. 3.5⭐️

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 3y

I read this book a while back and this book is just what the title said. Our beloved president chased vampires. It was gentle gore and I totally enjoyed the visual images the author used. It came back to my memory as I am about to jump into another Seth Grahame-Smith book.

The past month has been so busy, I‘ve been quite absent from Litsy. I had to make time to share this though as I am enjoying it far more than I thought I would! Such a fun story, love the historical detail, and a great narrator.

Bookzombie It's been a while since I read this one, but I remember really enjoying it. However, the movie adaptation was disappointing. 5y
StaceyKondla @Bookzombie - I don‘t doubt the movie was bad. I find that movies very seldom live up to the books they are based off and tend to avoid watching them 😊 5y

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this, after letting it sit on my shelf for a few years because...well its vampires and I detest vampire lit. Happily, this book leans in on the alternate history aspect and the vampires are kept to a minimum. Also, when seen, the vampires are black eyed, blood-thirsty monsters, not pale pretty boys who sparkle in the sun or Lord Byronic fops in ruffled shirts. 4 💥💥💥💥 out of 5.

This is a historical fantasy novel w/ vampires & the Civil War. It should be a home run, but it reads like a very dry biography, and then we get to the sexism/racism.

Author completely erased Kate Warne from Baltimore plot against Lincoln. She uncovered the plot & saved Lincoln.

Also, it's apparently okay for vampires to eat slaves because they aren't really people, but when they become a stepping stone to eating whites, it's a problem.

I FINALLY FINISHED IT!!!

It‘s about as average as you can get. Writing is basic with journal entries and narrator sharing things, akin to biographies. Works occasionally but not consistently well. Slavery is used as a plot device that can be very uncomfortable & even offensive at times. The violence and gore was fun, but limited. The plot twists made me yawn. Reads much slower than expected. So...average as hell. 3/5.

JazzFeathers 😕 such a shame. The premise sounds so interesting 6y

Okay... last book was not a fit for me. Trying this one next. Recommended to me by Sir Betrothed, I‘m going to hope this one is much better.

It‘s a fantasy horror novel that is pretty much the journals of Lincoln‘s vampire hunting shenanigans.

I listened to this as an audiobook. I was not particularly impressed with the narrator and I found the mood music to be distracting. The author seemed concerned with having as much historical detail as possible and I believe he succeeded. When I listened to the details of Lincoln‘s assassination it gave me cold shivers. I found the quality of the writing was in stark contrast to the poor quality of the production. I give this 3 stars. 👇

CatLass007 I hope the narrator for the sequel is not the same as the narrator for this book. I think this would‘ve gotten a better review if I had read the book rather than listen to the audio, but I like to multitask. Audiocrafting is more my style. 6y

I am forging ahead with this audiobook, which I checked out of the library using Libby. Parts of it are slow going and I am not impressed with the narrator, Scott Holst. The interlude music is distracting and does not add to the flow of the book. But I have heard that the sequel is better, so I want to finish this. Only 1:37:08 remains; I can DO this.

It‘s nearly 5 AM here and I haven‘t slept all night, not for want of trying. I‘ve been listening to this book all night but that‘s not why I haven‘t slept. I‘m past the halfway mark now and it‘s finally getting interesting. The discussions of politics and slavery, the Dred Scott decision, so many other incidents, have made it very contemporary, all of a sudden. Who knew we would still be arguing about the issue of race in the 21st-century?

Still listening to this book. I have insomnia and I was hoping it would put me to sleep because it‘s a little on the slow side. But I‘m going to plug along and get through this since I‘m at the halfway mark. I want to find out what vampires had to do with the War Between the States and Lincoln‘s assassination. Curiosity has the better of me. Besides, there‘s a sequel that sounds like it‘s going to be more interesting than the first.

This is a light read full of questions that need to be answered before I finish. What happened to Virginia Dare? Abraham Lincoln and Edgar Allan Poe were contemporaries – – could they have met in New Orleans? The blending of reality and fiction appears to be seamless and is building to its inevitable conclusion. I know there‘s a sequel regarding Lincoln‘s vampire friend, the question is will I finish this or bail?

I‘ve been reading this now for over three hours and have nearly eight hours to go. I haven‘t decided yet what I think of the book but I do know I don‘t like music added to the narration. The musical interludes do not add to the narration but detract from it. Music seems to come in the most annoying places. And I, a music major, think it should‘ve been dispensed with.

annkuch13 You're a music major?! What are you studying? I was an oboe performance major. 6y
CatLass007 @annkuch13 Actually, I have a degree in music already, I‘m not still studying. I have a degree in music management. I wanted to be a performance major but I would‘ve had to have a second instrument since my first instrument is Voice. And I never learned an instrument. I spent two years impersonating a math major before that. (edited) 6y

#30daysofreadathon Day 18: Alternative
Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter is one of my all-time favorite alternative history novels. The historical facts skillfully intertwined with the vampire plotline had me close to swearing vampires fought in the Civil War! If a thriller with some monsters is what you crave this October, pick this one up for the #readathon.
