P M C Kermode sets his story about John the Priest of Corna dale against the historic events of 1210, which saw war galleys sent to the Island by King John of England, when unfortunately the strong Manx king Reginald (Ragnvaldr) was absent with his forces in the western isles of Scotland.

In our Manx translation of Bram Stoker's Dracula, we first join Mina Harker and Professor Van Helsing on the road towards the Borgo Pass and beyond to Castle Dracula. Though it's becoming more difficult to put Mina under hypnosis, Count Dracula is still travelling by river towards his home. Professor Van Helsing prepares an explanatory memorandum for his friend, Dr John Seward.
