Query: Absolutely disappointing

I bought the book thinking it would be a very good follow-up to the original Dracula. Even the information on the jacket sounded like it would be good. But then I got to the story itself and got to when they reintroduced Mina. Utterly disappointed me. Mina was redeemed at the end of the original book and to see her back as a bride of Dracula really disappointed me. Was not happy with that twist.And John's personality shift was almost out of left field after he became a vampire. Was disappointed there as well. I had liked the character up until the point he let his step-mother (if you could call her that) seduce him into being a vampire.I will admit that one of the few characters that moved me was Quincey Harker - but to change the origin of the character didn't seem to fit. I don't remember Mina being that intimate with Dracula in the original novel...Would not recommend this book to any fan of the original novel.
