When others at the hospital begin to notice the injured man's unnatural healing ability, Gladstone shelters a recovering Niccolo in his home, and soon learns that the kind man is a vampire. Niccolo befriends both of Gladstone's daughters, the coming of age Ursula and the blind toddler Camille, and then disappears with Camille. Accompanied by Lady Hespeth Dunaway, a woman whose son was also abducted by Niccolo, Gladstone sets off to find his daughter. PublicationThe Delicate Dependency was published by Avon Books on March 28, 1982, and eventually went out of print. It was republished by Valancourt Books in 2014.[2][3]ReceptionIn Encyclopedia of the Vampire, Darrell Schweitzer called the novel "one of the most impressive explorations of a vampire mind ever written".[4]Publishers Weekly called The Delicate Dependency "ambitious, "impressive", and "unflaggingly interesting.”[3] Whitley Strieber noted of the novel, "The tension builds page by page to a stunning climax ... I doubt that I will ever forget it.”[3] Fangoria named The Delicate Dependency as one of its "Top 10 Vampire Novels" in 1992.[5] References1. ^{{Cite news|title=Obituaries: Michael Talbot, Writer, 38|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1992/06/02/obituaries/michael-talbot-writer-38.html|accessdate=8 September 2010|newspaper=The New York Times|date=2 June 1992}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Delicate Dependency, The}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/trebor-healey/early-gay-literature-redi_b_5373869.html?ncid=fcbklnkushpmg00000050 |title=Early Gay Literature Rediscovered |first=Trebor |last=Healey |work=Huffington Post |date=May 28, 2014 |accessdate=May 31, 2014}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.valancourtbooks.com/the-delicate-dependency-1982.html |title=The Delicate Dependency (1982) by Michael Talbot |publisher=Valancourt Books |accessdate=July 5, 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=https://books.google.es/books?id=CaqE82YIh4QC&pg=PA73&lpg=PA73&dq=one+of+the+most+impressive+explorations+of+a+vampire+mind+ever+written&source=bl&ots=DJNWFy7xHv&sig=pJfBOLuMaF4_CJNgdGq8Ujl0iWs&hl=es&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj3jdK2yNzNAhWKnBoKHRWnALQQ6AEIOTAC#v=onepage&q=one%20of%20the%20most%20impressive%20explorations%20of%20a%20vampire%20mind%20ever%20written&f=false |title=Encyclopedia of the Vampire: The Living Dead in Myth, Legend, and Popular Culture |editor1-first=S.
