Review of Hunting Prince Dracula


Hunting Prince Dracula (Stalking Jack the Ripper, #2)Title: Hunting Prince Dracula 

Author: Kerri Maniscalco 

Pages: 434

Series: Stalking Jack the Ripper book 2 

Genre: teen historical fiction steampunk 

Rating: 4 stars 

Hunting Prince Dracula is the second book in the Jack the Ripper series. This book opens with Audrey and Thomas on a train bound for Romania and a medical school there.  Both hope to get one of the few spots available and as a female she's looked down upon and no one thinks she can make it. 

I loved that in this second book in the series I didn't get the dreaded second book slump.  Hunting Prince Dracula had the same fast paced action and story of the first book.   While this isn't a true sequel to Stalking Jack the Ripper but a companion novel it is best if you read the books in order. The events of the first novel shape the beginning events in this novel and allow you to understand why Audrey basically ran to Romania in the first place. 

Hunting Prince Dracula combines the myths and legends behind the story of Dracula with early forensic medicine and forensic investigation to  create another unique novel. And just like with the first book in the series I look forward to the next book in the series.
