Resumen del Editor

Iolanthe Tennyson has had a very bad year—due in part to the very bad men in her life. So she’s accepted her cousin’s invitation to spend the summer in Austria to indulge her photography hobby. Rumors of a haunted forest there draw Iolanthe into the dark woods—and into the 18th century....

Nikola Czerny is a cursed man, forced by his half brothers to live forever as a Dark One. But his miserable existence takes an intriguing turn when a strange, babbling woman is thrown in his path. Iolanthe claims to know Nikola’s daughter—300 years in the future. She also knows what fate—in the form of his murderous half brothers—has in store for him. If only she knew the consequences of changing the past to save one good, impossibly sexy vampire....

Entertaining and humerous

Would you try another book from Katie MacAlister and/or Nicole Poole?

Yes, I might.

What was one of the most memorable moments of A Tale of Two Vampires?

The character IO's self talk was very funny in most moments.

Have you listened to any of Nicole Poole’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, I have not heard her before. She was very good. The humor would have gone flat without her animation. Narration makes or breaks a book!

Do you think A Tale of Two Vampires needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

The characters were good but, it was not an ending that calls for another book.

Any additional comments?

The story was simple and the characters not complex but, it was humorous and flowed at a good pace.

Love, Love, Love this !!!

Hilariously funny! I love the surprise! I especially love the narrator! I have listened to more books by her then I can count. She always brings the characters to life. Awesome book! I look forward to listening to the next 2!

Ok so I seriously enjoyed this!

Would you listen to A Tale of Two Vampires again? Why?

Absolutely! I found it hilarious, yet touching.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Probably Nickla (I probably butchered that). I don't know I like IO as well. She is hilarious.

Have you listened to any of Nicole Poole’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have not but she is awesome. I am definitely on the look out for her now. Nicole Poole is up there with my favs now.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I did! I laughed out loud several times and people around me were looking at me like I was some weirdo.

Any additional comments?

Need I say more? Yeahyah I recommend this one!

Funny light listen

This isn't your typical vampire story. It's about I.O. who time travels back in time and meets a dark one (vampire). She had already met his children in the future. There's a lot of quirkiness, funny moments, a lot of mind talk about sex, some sex but not real descriptive. I.O. does get a little annoying at times the way she can babble on, but if you want a light listen then you might enjoy this book. It's not a dark book and except for a lot of talk about sex could have been a YA book.

The narrator could have done a little better on the male voices but wasn't too bad.

Characters were not teens

I totally enjoyed a time travel romance with a vampire who finds his match and falls for her despite how they meet. Then the tables are turned and he gets to see her world!

Phenomenal Narration

Where does A Tale of Two Vampires rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The storyline was predictable and a little slow at times, but the narrator, Nicole Poole made it a truly entertaining listen.

If you’ve listened to books by Katie MacAlister before, how does this one compare?

This was not one of her best for suspense but the dialogue was exceptional.

What about Nicole Poole’s performance did you like?

Nicole was able to give voice to not only each character with believable tones, but she made the distinction between conversations the characters were having with themselves and others, whether they were voiced or held telepathically , with such clarity I was never confused. I was held engaged by the characters and their personalities clearly defined by their conversation.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Don't blink if you have to use subtitles

Great book

I love this series so much. This book has it all. Romance, adventure, and is funny. What more can you ask for

Good Story

Got this one for a great price and it was a very good listen. So if you can catch this one on sale then grab it up and enjoy the tale. It's refreshing.

Wonderfully Refreshing

As others, I got this book in the sale bin and took a chance. I was not disappointed. This book is written differently than typical vampire books. There is humour, love and suspense. I absolutely loved the way Iolanthe or IO talks to herself and to Nikola. There mind to mind conversations are hilarious. It is a unique spin on love and romance. There are really cute sexual references and some love scenes but it all makes you smile. I love the way the author has conversations within conversations. Iolanthe starts babbling and then interrupts her own tirade with funny sexual thoughts. If you are into erotic scenes, this will miss the mark but I think the characters are so unique that you will love it regardless. This book is number 10 in the series and I did not know it but you can read it on its own and not be lost by the story. It makes me curious as to how her other books are. If I was going to make a comparison to another book I read, it would be like the Molly Harper books. Funny, quirky but a really enjoyable read. The narrator was great. I will look for more books read by her. She had a lot of accents to produce along with Victorian speech and did not miss the mark. She brought this book to life. I am saying a definite yes to this book.
