This is one of my favorite books. It's based on the myth of the Blood Countess (also known as the Dracula Countess) Elizabeth Bathory. In this story, Erzebet Bizecka, the daughter of a great count in Hungary, is obssessed with beauty and staying young. She was born under a curse stating that she will either die young, or never die. She is helped to choose her fate by a mysterious man who helps her to find the method to live forever, by bathing in virgin blood.
It's a very well written story, which is quite amazing actually since this is the authors first story that she kept revising until it was published...last year I believe. I think that even if you don't like the basic story line, than you must admire how well it's written. It's given me the insipiration to right more of books.
I hope you'll try reading it ^.^
