Shortlisted for the Nebula Award for Best Novel (1981) and the Locus Award for Best Fantasy Novel (1981).

Edward Weyland is far from your average vampire: not only is he a respected anthropology professor but his condition is biological -- rather than supernatural. He lives discrete lifetimes bounded by decades of hibernation and steals blood from labs rather than committing murder. Weyland is a monster who must form an uneasy empathy with his prey in order to survive, and "The Vampire Tapestry" is a story wholly unlike any you've heard before.
