The Book of Renfield purports to collect the long-lost private diaries, professional journals, and wax cylinder recordings that comprise Dr. John Seward's obsessive study of R.M. Renfield. Featuring appearances by many of the characters from the original Dracula, Lucas's novel takes on the frighteningly realistic tone of a textual documentary as it illuminates the warped consciousness of Renfield-and powerfully demonstrates how this poor unfortunate came to be the ideal portal for Evil in the modern world.
