‘Fear and His Servant unites a multi-layered narrative with a row of fictitious characters, archetypal forces and contemporary politicians. Using a conventional gothic plot about the search for vampires in eighteenth-century Serbia, Fear and His Servant tells of countless political traps and an eternal struggle for power. Blending horror with politics and mystery with history, this novel turns into a truly postmodern recount of politics and religion … The reader is offered nothing less than the Devil’s version of the New Testament and an apocryphal recount of the history of Belgrade.’
