Publisher's summary

UNFORTUNATELY, THEY BELIEVE IN HIM....

Christopher Csejthe doesn't believe in vampires. Not until he becomes one. He doesn't believe in witches or werewolves, either. Not until they make him an offer he can't refuse....

Contains mature themes.

A great story, adequate narrator.

An old favorite, finally on Audible.

An Everyman who lost his family in a car accident finds out he might be slightly dead, and headed towards mostly dead.

Good book

A good book series. I have read it multiple times. It’s kinda hard to listen to him when he’s doing certain female voices.

A good book, but a somewhat questionable reader.

This has been one of my favourite books (and series) since I first ran across it in the 90's. I still love it as an audio-book. I am ok with the attempts at accents and changes in voice to represent different characters, but the continual mispronunciations by the reader are jarring and distracting. All that being said, I hope the other three books get added to the Audible library.

Smart Horror/Fantasy

This is not so much a murder mystery as an undead mystery. The protagonist is changing into a vampire and has no idea why. As the plot thickens he must distinguish friend from foe. Plenty of action and intrigue.

Great Story

I first read this story decades ago and loved it! I am so happy to find it available now in audible! I had to buy the complete set!
Christopher, finding himself in a completely untenable situation girds his loins with snark, sarcasm, an extensive education in literature, and an absolute unwillingness to submit to the control of others to fight his waybto freedom!

Good premise poor execution.

The story overall is good. It was interesting and had me engaged.

The spouting of literature became way too much, to the point I nearly stopped listening.

The narrator was just ok...his accents were horrible. He way over dramitised much of the story.

Overall it's worth a credit .
