Resumen del Editor

Arianna Grace liked her boring, Midwestern, teenage life where she ignored the many unanswered questions of her childhood. Why were her parents dead? Why did she not have family? Where was she raised until she was five? When someone offers to explain it all, Arianna thinks she's just getting answers. Instead, she is thrown into a world of night humans who drink blood.

On Arianna's 16th birthday, her world is thrown upside down when she changes into a vampire. Night humans, or demons, as some call them, live in normal society. Learning all of the new rules of a world she didn't know existed might be hard enough, but it's further complicated by two former-friends that now want to help her take her role as the successor to her grandfather.

There is a war going on between the night humans. Sides have been taken and lines are not crossed. Four main clans of night humans are struggling for control of the night. Divided into two sides, clans Baku and Tengu have been at war for centuries with the clans Dearg-dul and Lycan. That is, until Arianna Grace finds out the truth; she's the bridge of peace between the two sides. But not everyone wants peace. With the night humans divided, Arianna is now a pawn in the war between them. She must choose a side--her mother's family or her father's--and for once in her life, decide her own fate.

One of the best books I've ever read!!!<br />

And I read all the time.. I felt like I was part of the story and can't wait to get the next book to continue the epic adventure of this wonderful young woman as she goes battle with all the people that try again and again to stop the prophecy about her from coming true....I can't wait to see where the next part of this book will take us....I know it will be great...... This author is an amazing story teller and she will grab you and take you into the book and keep you there enthralled until the very end
..... Please keep writing .I will buy everything you put to paper. B.Seargent

Loved the book, but not the narration

I LOVED this book and have already started the second in the series, but I wasn't a huge fan of the narration. Her cadence didn't always match how I would've read the scenes, so I feel like the impact of BKM's words was lost sometimes.

loved this book

I really enjoyed this book. I can't wait to read book two and book three.

A great woman's Vampire book

Honestly I was hoping for some real fighting, this is a Swiss version of a violent book, (there is none) the discription of Andrews love got really annoying at times you should give us more credit we can figure things out on our own.. The ending.. was disappointing, if all you have to do is flex your power and all your foes leave then why is areona being protected all the time, I could have killed her cause she was such a wimp almost the whole series.

EXCELLENT BOOK!!?

Where does The Legend of the Blue Eyes rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The Legend Of Blue Eyes ranks Really high at the top of my list for a few reasons! The story is Excellent I started this last night & couldnt stop! The unique take on the Vampires is so different BUT IN A GREAT WAY DIFFERENT! I also loved at the end this audiobook gave you a preview of the next book in the series as well as a way to connect with the author!

Who was your favorite character and why?

This question is hard because of course I love Arianna Grace but I have to admit that I also love Devon(SORRY IF THE NAME ARE NOT SPELLED RIGHT) Devon Loves & Protects her with every fiber of his being! Even when it's hard on him he is able to put his feelings aside to make sure she is ok!!

Which character – as performed by Caprisha Page – was your favorite?

I don't think I can pick a favorite & here's why... Caprisha is able to do excellent voices for both Female & Male! However she can also do southern accents & a few other ones & still sound great! I've listened to other books where people have tried & were unsuccessful!! GREAT JOB CAPRISHA PAGE!!

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

Listening to Arianna when she had all of this stuff dropped on her when she turned 16! It was nice to actually see a character not just take it in stride! She was homesick & upset & that for me makes it REAL! There are quite a few other times however this one stuck out with me!

Any additional comments?

If you haven't read our listened to this book then YOUR MISSING OUT NOT ONLY ON A GREAT STORY BUT ALSO A TRULY AMAZING AUTHOR & A VERY TALENTED NARRATOR!! It's DEFINITELY worth spending the Money/Credit! I'm so Happy to have Found a New Favorite Author!! THANK YOU to audible for recommending this book to me!!

B Khristin McMichael has a winner in her hands

As young adult stories go this is at the top of the pile. Ms McMichael's spends a yarn filled with young night creatures loving and fighting in well envisioned urban fantasy landscape. We hope her follow-up books are just as good.

A REFRESHING NEW SLANT

I totally enjoyed this book and couldn't wait to find time to enjoy the Audible narration. The story and narration are excellent. I wholeheartedly recommend this book and narration.

The Legend of the Blue Eyes

The thing I kinda disliked about this book is that it didn't really make sense I found myself getting lost in all that was happening. I also didn't like how it would refer to Ariana in the third person. But I did like like the overall counsel of the story and the action, it was just a little confusing and hard to follow at times

Loved this book

I really enjoyed this book and listening to the narrator read it, whether I was driving, house cleaning, or doing yard work. Definitely reading the next books in this series.

Interesting but needs polish

This book is a casual easyread, neither horrible nor great. The good: it has an interesting concept, a shift from the traditional supernatural roles, it is not too blatantly sexual, and the audible narrator is reasonable good. The bad: the story is choppy, the heroine is very shallow, parts are repetitive. A reasonable early career effort. I hope the author continues to write and publish. To improve, I believe future books would benefit from a good editor to catch errors.
