Story
When struggling riverboat captain Abner Marsh receives an offer of partnership from a wealthy aristocrat, he suspects something’s amiss. But when he meets the hauntingly pale, steely-eyed Joshua York, he is certain. For York doesn’t care that the icy winter of 1857 has wiped out all but one of Marsh’s dilapidated fleet. Nor does he care that he won’t earn back his investment in a decade. York has his own reasons for wanting to traverse the powerful Mississippi. And they are to be none of Marsh’s concern - no matter how bizarre, arbitrary, or capricious his actions may prove.

1870. A time known as The Great Killing. The vampire clans arose and slaughtered humanity with unprecedented carnage in the northern parts of the world. Millions perished; millions were turned into herd animals. The great industrialized civilizations of the world were left in ruin. A remnant fled south to the safety of the ever present heat which was intolerable to vampires. There, blending with the local peoples, they rebuilt their societies founded on human ingenuity, steam and iron.

The Barbarossa family’s roots are far more ancient and ethereal, but they are bound to the Gearys by a shared history of murder, insanity, and adultery. When Rachel Geary and Galilee, the seductive prince of the Barbarossa clan, fall in love, they unleash powerful enmities that could destroy both dynasties. Shorter and more conventional than some of Barker’s other work, this novel is especially rich with complex, passionate, three-dimensional characters, lush settings, and elegant language.

Think Oliver Twist with Monsters
This vividly dark tale is filled with enough gore to make your stomach turn. Brimming with excitement and action, it is a narrative worthy of any Indiana Jones film. Gruesome and fraught with mental illness, this story is not for the weak at heart (or stomach for that matter). Ordinarily I would have thought this kind of story not one I would want to read, however, I found myself riveted to the very end. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this very entertaining series.

I really enjoyed this book. I am a huge fan of horror and this had a lot of things I look for in horror stories. It is very well written and very well narrated. If you are not a fan of horror or if you are squeamish this is not a book for you.

I wasn't sure at first about the narrator's voice because it seemed almost too soothing and I'd heard this was a scary book. It was perfect though! He did a great job with the characters and the story was fun to listen to! I'm downloading the second one. Yancey has a new fan.

A must read for horror and psychological fans.
This book is a staple of the cryptid horror genre. The way science and emotion is weaved into dealing with monsters is flawless. Not once did I question the science and not once did I question, beyond reason, the actions of the characters. Everything flows and everything feels deserved. This is what horror is. I might even go as far to say it has lovecraftian elements- only in the way that a eleven year old is trying so desperately to understand the world around him when nothing begins to make sense.
The vocal performance of this book is phenomenal in its own right as well. I cannot picture any other voice coming from Pellinore Warthrop's mouth than the one Steven Boyer portrays here. I have the entire series on hard copy, but I will always read Pellinore's dialogue with Mr. Boyer's voice. It's just wonderful.
Rick Yancey can explore horror and trauma with such ferocity that this quickly became my favorite series of all time. Even the side characters hold meaning and depth and I've never once felt the need to skip parts because each sentence held my attention. Combined with Mr. Boyer's ability to bring emotion to the novel, it's a masterpiece.

Wonderful and terrifying
Blood and guts galore! Absurdly well-written and a nice, fast-paced plot pulls you in and doesn't let go to the very end.
This book has transcended its genre, in my opinion, and reads like a Victorian Classic. Definitely recommended.
Be aware going in, though, that there will be blood. Lots of blood. And other goretastic escapades. Not for the faint of heart.
The narration is spectacular, and well worth listening to.
