Resumen del Editor

Some souls are forged in fire. Some hearts are packed in ice. Some elements were never meant to be combined....

Blood Redemption, a journey of elemental darkness and primordial light:

Saber Alexiares is no ordinary vampire. He is like a cruel, fire-breathing dragon. Reared in the bowels of the colony by Dark Ones, he has no conscience, no compassion, and no saving grace. Captured by the enemy, he is sentenced to execution by sunlight only to discover that his body will not burn - he isn't who he thought he was. He was stolen at birth. He was reared by the wrong house. And the sunlight isn't going to kill him because he does have a soul.

Vanya Demir is the very heart of goodness and light, an ancient female from a magical race, the progeny of humans and celestial deities before they were cursed by the blood. With her deep-rooted sense of duty, naive upbringing, and tragic personal history, she has unknowingly packed her heart in ice and dedicated her life to the service of the Vampyr. She is wholly unprepared to face a fire-breathing dragon.

When their paths converge beneath a Serpens Blood Moon, they will each have 30 days to reconcile the irreconcilable, to confront the primordial darkness that threatens to destroy them both. Can a being lost in darkness for 800 years ever find its way to the light? Can a heart that's been buried for as long as it can remember risk the ultimate in betrayal and damnation simply for the hope of blood redemption?

AMAZING!, INTENSE AND TOTALLY WOWED ME!

I HAVE BEEN ADDICTED TO TESSA DAWNS BLOOD CURSE SERIES FORM DAY ONE, WELL ACTUALLY PAGE ONE OF BLOOD DESTINY AND I HAVE TO SAY SABER AND VANYAS STORY WAS TRULY AMAZING!!! I COULD NOT STOP LISTENING TO THIS BOOK FROM THE START WHEN NAPOLEON GLIDED THRU THE BARS OF SABER CELL......I WAS TRULEY HOOKED AND ERIC DOVE OUT DID HIMSELF WITH HIS NARRATION OF BLOOD REDEMPTION........I CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE NEXT INSTALLMENT IN TESSAS "BLOOD CURSE SERIES" ....THESE AUDIO BOOKS ARE A MUST LISTEN TO ANYONE WHO LOVES DARK FANTASY/PARANORMAL THANK YOU TESSA!!!!!!

OH YES!! PURE AWESOMENESS!!

This is my favorite installment thus far. Saber is so well depicted, I fell in Love with him. His hair, his fight techniques, his inner strength, his story is so unique and original... I will listen to this series over and over again.
Tessa Dawn poured her heart and soul into this series and it shows in her characters and how they interact.
Eric G. Dove is a great narrator... voice make the characters and world come to Life. in could never keep all the voices straight. Great job.

SABER'S STORY WAS INCREDIBLE!!

Of all the Blood Curse Series books I think this one might just be the most heart wrenching and powerful. This is not your typical redemption story where someone goes from bad to good overnight or even from bad to good all the way. This character has to fight and claw his way back to his soul, and Tessa brings every moment of that to vivid life. Absolutely amazing! Best in the series so far.

Eric Dove really brought the characters and the story to life! I can't imagine a better narrator for these stories.

Can EVIL truly be Redeemed?

Where does Blood Redemption rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Blood Redemption has to rank first in the audiobook series so far.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Princess Vanya with all her beauty, charm, & royal training discovers that beneath all the trappings of her royal lineage she is first AND foremost a woman. The process of her discovery is amazing to behold.

Which character – as performed by Eric G. Dove – was your favorite?

Eric Dove captured the true essence of the evil dragon Sabre from the beginning through his redemption.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

If I could have stayed awake to listen to this book in one sitting, I most certainly would have! As it was, I listened to & from work and every available moment during the day!

Any additional comments?

The book Blood Redemption was an amazing read. The audiobook is fascinating to listen to as Eric Dove reads with so much emotion, catching all the subtle and not so sublte nuances so well! I loved, loved, loved listening to this book...and will be listening to it again over & over!

The true meaning of Redemption, a story of courage

What made the experience of listening to Blood Redemption the most enjoyable?

I found myself stopping what I was doing and just listening, being totally captivated.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Blood Redemption?

So many but for me Saber meeting his parents, then choosing to be a better man, not only for his Silivasi brethern but because it was the right thing to do. Of course meeting his one true love :)

Which scene was your favorite?

When Saber was sentenced to die but didn't, when Napoleon the King from the house of Jadon realized something was ary, and decided to observe and watch over Saber, knowing that if Saber didn't have the strength to change for the good he would make sure he died. That one redeeming chance, would Saber truly take it and stick to it for eternity, turning away from his dark family in the house of Jaegar.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Saber's constant anguish, confusion and yet strength. He truly is a remarkable character that leaves me breathless in his intensity.

Any additional comments?

Tessa Dawn moved me to tears and beyond with this book. I have never enjoyed a book so more as Blood Redemption. It has everything one could possibly need for a few hours of bliss. Be forewarned, this is indeed a dark tale, but worthy to be amongst the greats in litreture, such as Dracula.

Keeps getting better and better!

Well! I'm happy to say that this series is getting better by the minute! So far each story has been clear and concise enough that, I believe, you can read them out of order and still have full understanding of where you are with each character. So far Blood Shadows: Blood Curse Series, Book 4, Nachari Silivasi, and this book has been my favorite! There is action, romance, and entrege at ever turn. Each story has been exciting and well written. This has caused me to get each consecutive book as soon as I finish the last. Haven't done that with anyone but J. R. Ward and I have not been disappointed! Well worth the listen!

Excellent Story and Series. Excellent Narration.

Another great story in Tessa Dawn's Blood Curse series!

This series is so good. The first book was good but it has some eye rolling moments. I am so glad I did not give up on the series. I feel like the first book set up world building and characters the rest of the stories on the series. Because all of the books in this series since have been absolutely fantastic.

I really liked Saber's character and his back story. He is a great addition to the series. Sexy, smart, and his sarcasm is great. LOL. Vanya was great too. Beautiful and smart. They had some great chemistry together. There are a couple of very nicely written sex scenes.

The story line and plot is great. There is lots of fantastic dialogue throughout the entire book. And this story is not full of angst. So nice not to listen to hundreds of pages of angst.

As for the narration. Well, it was fantastic! I love Eric Dove. He gives everyone their own distinct voice. The women sound like women and he reads with emotion. His voice is such a pleasure to my ears. One of my favorite male narrators for sure.

If you have not listened or read this series I highly recommend it.

This is a must listen\read series for paranormal romance fans!

The story grabs you and never lets go!

Where does Blood Redemption rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I love this Blood Curse series!! They are all incredible?

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The battle for good versus evil is intrinsic in this book. The story grabs you and never lets go from the very first page. Wow! Just wow! The author takes you so deep into the characters minds, hearts and struggles while moving the action so seamlessly that you almost forget to breathe. This is an absolute keeper. I will listen again and again.

“Dear Dark Lords of Hell! What had he done?”

Would you listen to Blood Redemption again? Why?

Now that I have your attention! Saber Alexiares…. Son of Damon Alexiares... Son of Rafael and Lorna Dzuna... a dark one… or is he??? You will LOVE this book! The roller coaster ride of emotion, trials and struggles that Vanya and Saber go through are enough to keep you listening on the edge of your seat!

What other book might you compare Blood Redemption to and why?

I don't think that I can compare this to anything else... It is a one of a kind amazing story that only Tessa could write! She is truly a great author!

Which scene was your favorite?

To quote a phrase; “You were raised with hyenas when all along you were meant to be a lion.”

If you could take any character from Blood Redemption out to dinner, who would it be and why?

I can only chose one character to go to dinner with? (BIG sigh!) OK, let me be honest. As much as I love all of the characters in this series, I have to be true to my very favorite character, Nachari Silivasi. (BTW... His book is Book 4, Blood Shadows)(Also an amazing book) I WOULD LOVE TO GO TO DINNER WITH HIM... I WOULD LOVE TO GO ANY WHERE WITH HIM!

Any additional comments?

I love the way Tessa portrays the female characters in her books. Let's just say that all of these male Vampyr sure "THINK" they are in charge. This series is so incredible! I have read them all and yet I am still waiting with baited breath for the next one to come out in the audible version!

WOW! Amazing story!

Absolutely loved this story. The internal struggle that Saber goes through is so emotional. Saber and Vanya, fire and ice, coming together as fate designed it. True love.
