Publisher's summary

Dina Demille may run the nicest bed and breakfast in Red Deer, Texas, but she caters to a very particular kind of guest… the kind that no one on Earth is supposed to know about. Guests like a former intergalactic tyrant with an impressive bounty on her head, the Lord Marshal of a powerful vampire clan, and a displaced-and-superhot werewolf; so don’t stand too close, or you may be collateral damage.

But what passes for Dina’s normal life is about to be thrown into chaos. First, she must rescue her long-distant older sister, Maud, who’s been exiled with her family to a planet that functions as the most lawless penal colony since Botany Bay. Then she agrees to help a guest whose last chance at saving his civilization could bring death and disaster to all Dina holds dear. Now Gertrude Hunt is under siege by a clan of assassins. To keep her guests safe and to find her missing parents, Dina will risk everything, even if she has to pay the ultimate price. Though Sean may have something to say about that!

This book series captured my imagination.

The mango ice cream made me teary eyed. I enjoyed the whole book but the ice cream got me.

Love this series!!

I am completely addicted to The Innkeeper Chronicles!! The storyline is very unique and the characters are very engaging. Nora Achradi's narration is terrific! These are the first Graphic Audio dramatic adaptations that I've listened to and they are phenomenal! HIGHLY recommended!

Another great book!

Great story, characters and full cast immersive experience that make the book a must listen!

richness

Love these Graphic Audio productions of the Innkeepers series but really wish they didn’t feel the need to abridge the story.
Oh well, still love the rich texture of the full cast recording.
Dina rescues Maud and Helen from Karhari with the help of Sean and Arland.
Dina then protects the Hiru from the Draziri with the help of Sean, Arland and Maud. Arland’s fascination with Earth women only makes him fall harder when he meets the awesome Maud who holds her own with swordplay and Vampire culture.
Recommend. Enjoy.

ookay, good

I did enjoy it but sometimes Dina is a bit full of idiotic? doubts. And this ruins it for real.

thank goodness it dies stop relatively quickly or I would not manage to keep listening. I admit I skip a bit of the descriptive parts when they get longish for my taste. They are good but the story gets stuck and I want it to get going.

Great performance and book though, little flaws excluded and somehow accepted

Terrible narration for Helen and Arlen

We had already listened to the audiobook, so we were curious to compare this dramatized version.
The original narrator does the story better. This dramatized version is entertaining, but the quality of the narration team is spotty.
The narration for Helen was awful! As she is a strong young female character, it is really a shame that the narrator did such a bad job.
The narrator for Arlen makes him sound low on testosterone.
With a few changes, this dramatized version would be pretty much perfect.

Compared to original audio book? Okay…

I liked having the full cast performance, the actors did great. But my few issues were these:
1. When they have conversations with someone far away, the dialogue is soooo quiet you can’t always hear the full conversation. I feel like there must be a better way to portray a distance conversation other than lowering the volume so low.
2. Why do the vampires have British accents? Including Helen…who was mostly raised by her mother, who has a Southern accent.
3. The countdown clock beeping…very annoying to listen to in the background for several minutes.
4. They left out some of the dialogue/scenes in the original book. Small things, but in general some of the moments were important or fun in character building. Like Maud grabbing Dina’s camera to take pictures of Helen in the Kitchen, or the interaction Sean and Dina had with the cashier at Walmart, etc.

Loving this series!

My sisters has pushed me to read this for a couple of years. Thought I’d try the dramatized adaptation: They aren’t lying : it’s a movie in your mind! Love it!

Such a great experience

This book is amazing. The narration just adds a whole another dimension to the story. Thank Ilona Andrews for a stunning story and thank you Graphic Audio for taking her story to the next level

Love Graphic

Really love this Graphic series with all the sound effects and Actors for each story character.
Have read all Ilona Andrews books since first published and really enjoyed the Graphic versions as well
