Fevre Dream is a literary fiction book by author George R.R. Martin.
Captain Abner Marsh receives an offer of cooperation from a wealthy nobleman, he suspects something is amiss.
For York didn’t care that the freezing winter of 1857 wiped out all but one of Marsh’s ruined fleet. He also doesn’t care that he won’t get his investment back in a decade. York had its own reasons for wanting to cross the mighty Mississippi. And they are not Marsh’s concern – no matter how strange, arbitrary, or erratic his actions may prove to be.
Marsh meant to decline York’s offer. It’s too full of secrets and spelling dangers. But the promise of both gold and a big new boat that could make history crushed his resolve – along with the terrifying power of York’s enchanting gaze. On his first voyage aboard his new Fevre Dream roller coaster, Marsh finds himself on a mission both sinister and perhaps loftier than his greatest nightmare.. This is a vampire story about a vampire’s journey to unite his race with humanity, about a wonderful riverman’s dream of immortality.
