I finished Vlad The Impaler By Enid A. Goldberg & Norman Itzkowitz. This was about Vlad Dracula who was born in 1431, In Sighhisora, Transylvania. His father's name was Vlad Dracul. Dracul Promised to protect the Holy Roman Empire and was a member of a secret organization called '' Order Of The Dragon''. However, Vlad Dracul was in trouble because, he was in a war with the Ottoman Empire. In a political deal, for his own freedom Vlad sacrificed two of his sons one of them being Vlad Dracula when he was 12 years old and his brother, Radu. Even though the two were imprisoned they were educated by Turkish tutors. Vlad and his brother found out that their father and older brother had been slayed by Basarab Laiota . Vlad was looking for revenge and fought on the side of the Turkish and their army. he and his guards went on a killing spree that lasted for many years and killing many people in the process of this event. A king named Mathias Corvineus(an ally of his)was no a target on Vlad's palm of toture. He kept him as a prisoner for over 12 years! Not much is know about Vlad Dracula during this period of time but Vlad forced Mathias to join him on a mission to take back the Wallachian throne. A month later Vlad was killed in battle near a city called Bucharest in Turkey. Vlad got his nick name by killing his victims and drinking their blood.
