Publisher's summary

When a floating city becomes the target of a rash of vampire attacks, only one man can restore the oasis.

"The City," a tiny metropolis of a few hundred sheltered citizens floating serenely on a seemingly random course a few feet above the ground, has long been thought safe from the predation of marauding monsters. It seemed like a paradise.

A paradise shattered when an invasion of apparent vampires threatens the small haven. While the Vampire Hunter known only as "D" struggles to exterminate the scourge, a former denizen of the city, the attractive Raleigh Knight, and the brash John M. Brassalli Pluto VIII seize control of the city lurching it onto a new and deadly course. D's travails are just beginning.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Lost in translation

Something must be lost in the translation. This book series has such high ratings, but the audiobook is so dry and bland.
I imagine the words are translated accurately, but the real meaning and flavor is lost in the translation.
I do not recommend getting this audiobook.

Performance was good, but not like the previous 3

Voice performance not as good. Story of course is great. Narration is still on point for the series though. Enjoyed the character of Pluto a lot.
