Publisher's summary

MaryJanice Davidson's cult hit Undead and

Unwed is a delightful mixture of Sex and the City and Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Waking up in a tacky coffin and wearing off-brand shoes, Betsy Taylor can't believe the horrible turn her life has taken; then she discovers she's a vampire. Soon, Betsy becomes a participant in a power struggle between the forces of darkness. With only her friend Jessica and the hunky vampire Sinclair to help her, this new "Queen of Vampires" will have a tough time getting her afterlife straight.

Dying for more? Don't miss the other titles in the Undead series.

Critic reviews

"Sexy, steamy, and laugh-out-loud funny, Davidson's chick-lit foray into the paranormal is delightful." (Booklist)

Lighthearted Dark Fantasy

I have to admit I really loved the lighthearted sillyness of a shoe loving queen of the vampires. I'm personally not a big fan of dark brooding vampires, so this was really a lot of fun.

My only gripe is that it's a little more sexual than I would have liked, not that I mind a little bit but the author can be very explicit which is a little wierd for me since I like to listen to my books at work (with headphones but still...).

Otherwise I'm really enjoying the series and I can't help spending all my credits so I can read the rest of them.

Smart and Sassy

If you like smart and sassy heroines, cheeky dialouge with witty comebacks and a smart but easy to follow plot line then you should have a listen. The production of the audio is very good as well - Nancy Wu's voice is crisp and I personally LOVED her reading.

Different kind of books i normally listen to

Would you listen to Undead and Unwed again? Why?

Sarcastic, witty, weird plot but funny. And of course there are so many different therorys about vampires and how the live etc. But hey worth the money

What was one of the most memorable moments of Undead and Unwed?

In the pool and not realizing that she was consummating their relationship.

What about Nancy Wu’s performance did you like?

I think she could of done a better job with the characters and the voice changes. It was pretty the same sound and sometimes he sounded she was right on top of the mic

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Two different sittings

Dubious consent - yuck

I love the story, hated the way one character didn't get consent. Also "retarded" =gross

So good that I immediately purchased book 2

Pleasantly surprised by the humor. I can't help loving a vampire who loves shoes.

Yells Pod

Very intertaining! The narrator can be a bit high pitched at times but soon you realize that is just how the character would be. If fun and light is what you're looking for this is for you.

Slower then Molasses

Slow read - thought the story was funny in parts - but overall I guess I am not a fan of vampire books .. And I got tired of her obsession with shoes.
