Resumen del Editor

The grave is one wrong step away.

Having narrowly averted an (under)world war, Cat Crawfield wants nothing more than a little downtime with her vampire husband, Bones. Unfortunately, her gift from New Orleans’ voodoo queen just keeps on giving - leading to a personal favor that sends them into battle once again, this time against a villainous spirit.

Centuries ago, Heinrich Kramer was a witch hunter. Now, every All Hallows Eve, he takes physical form to torture innocent women before burning them alive. This year, however, a determined Cat and Bones must risk all to send him back to the other side of eternity - forever. But how do you kill a killer who’s already long dead?

Jeaniene Frost, New York Times and USA Today best-selling author, lives with her husband and their very spoiled dog in Florida. Although not a vampire herself, she confesses to having pale skin, wearing a lot of black, and sleeping in late whenever possible. Aside from writing, she enjoys reading, poetry, exploring old cemeteries, spelunking, and traveling - by car. Airplanes, children, and cookbooks frighten her.

Love in vein: listen to another Night Huntress novel.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Praise for the Night Huntress series: “Frost’s dazzling blend of urban fantasy action and passionate relationships makes her a true phenomenon.” ( Romantic Times)

It NEVER gets old

I love love love this series. Jeaniene Frost is an amazingly talented writer. Her imagery jumps off the page. Tavia Gilbert is one of the best narrators around. She brings the book and the characters to life. Every character is distinct and she puts her all into the performance. Now I have read/listened to all of her Night Huntress books and the story never turns bland or boring. Some authors at least one dull book in the series. I have to say she does not. Every book delivers great story, lots of laughs, awesome fight scenes and hot romance. Each book grabs you from the very start and take you for a wild ride. This is a fun series to start and follow.

The best villain yet

The Night Huntress series gets better with time. In this sixth installment, Cat finds herself in a fight with a ghost. This is no ordinary ghost, oh no. This is a very nasty, bad ghost who is right up Cat's alley to vanquish. This story starts exactly where the last novel left off. Indeed, the very last words of book five are the start of book six. As always, Crispin (Bones) is there for the merriment as is most of the characters we have come to love, save one conspicuous absence. Fabian and ... is more central to this story and I find that delightful. I wonder how that will affect follow on novels.

At this point, I've gotten used to Gilbert's narration of Bones, I am less annoyed. I am breaking down and grudging giving her a good job on this one. In order to understand this book, you have to read book 5. Don't try to skip it. You can get away with not reading 1 thru 4, but book five is a must or you'll miss most of 6, you'll be saying 'huh?'

I'm looking forward to the next one. Although, the next one looks like a 1/2 novel called Home for the Holidays. Should move pretty fast. I give it a big thumbs up.

Fantastic Series!

If you could sum up One Grave at a Time in three words, what would they be?

Entertaining. Engrossing. Riveting.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Bones. I loved the accent!

What does Tavia Gilbert bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Tavia brings these characters to life. I loved the different voices she was able to give to each of the characters. I was swept away into another world. I am not usually a paranormal romance fan. This series was a fantastic surprise. Tavia, and Jeanine Frost of course, made it a favorite for me!

Any additional comments?

I love books in a series. I highly recommend this series, even to someone who is not a fan of paranormal romance. Try it. You'll like it!

One Word at a Time, Keeps Getting Better

This series keeps getting better and better! Its one of the most amazing paranormal romance series. The couple has hot chemistry and the intriguing world that surrounds them is absolutely compelling. It grows more fascinating by the book.

Loved this book and love the narrator!!!

I am absolutely in love with Bones!!! And Tavia really makes him come to life!!! I didn't know a person could do so many characters so well!!! Looking forward to the next book!!!

Great series. Worth every credit.

Almost a year ago, I had amassed credits on my account and found a few books to use them up and close my account. One of them was the first book in this series. My 17-year old daughter and I listened to that book late this summer while traveling and I had to rejoin Audible just to get the entire series. The sex scenes can be a bit much, but that would be my only complaint. This series is addictive. We blasted through 5 books in a few weeks and were anxiously awaiting the next credits.

The story: The characters are believable and engaging. They are dynamic. The plots are interesting and fast-moving with just enough twists to keep a sharp mind attentive. The sex scenes are believable and fairly graphic (for my 17-year old, but we openly discuss such things so I was okay with it.) One big caveat: Go to her website to get the reading order. I believe that after book 3, you need to switch to the "Night Huntress World" series before reading books 4 and 5. Double check that, I'm going from memory.

The performance: The reader was FANTASTIC. She really brought the characters to life. She made the action scenes and scenes with emotion really shine. I've since gone looking for other things that she reads.

If another installment of this series came available, it would jump to the top of my wish list.
