A well planned piece of work, Ordo Dracul brings into focus one of the men who made the Vampire a success in the first place, Count Dracula. It was always widely assumed that he was a loner, a hermit, isolationist, or any other of the secluded types, but now, this book casts him in a very different light. The notion that he has followers is evocative and a fitting tribute to his name. The history, various titles and how the Covenant relates to other kindred is enterprisingly documented. There are many layers to the followers of Count Dracula and the various clan members who follow the edicts of his organization. Each one perceive each other differently, but well enough to follow the common goal of the covenant.
From the front cover to the very end, the art is explicit and terrifying in places, but superbly designed. The digital quality of this title is nigh on perfect and fans of Vampire could make great monuments of the various images contained within this volume.
