A fun listen with superb narration!

Apollo Grant by Rey Nichols and narrated by David Bosco is an entertaining listen. Recommend if you like vampires, mystery, action, and a well-narrated story.

What’s it about? Apollo and his roommate, Murray, are on a job to find a doctor’s son in Las Vegas. Unfortunately when they find him, they realize it was a set up. From there, you enter the fast-paced and twisted long game of one vampire that doesn’t let up until the end. You get friendship, vampire hunting, action, bag guys, humor, pop-culture references, and detailed description of the scenes that helps to pull you into the world. There’s a nice assortment of characters and all are voiced to perfection by David Bosco. David does an incredible job with the voices, tones, and pacing, all of which make for easy listening.

I enjoyed this story way more than I thought I would- it was a nice surprise. Loved it was short, straight to the story vs. fillers, but at the same time I wanted a little more in one area (Ronald). While the end wraps up, it also leaves potential for more in the world (which I’d like to hear more of). 4 ½ stars for story, 5 stars for narration.

“Very few people know how vampirism truly originated. The theories are varied. Some say it started as a disease, some say it’s a curse. Hell, I’m willing to bet with being in Vegas someone probably thinks it’s spread by contact with glitter. If that’s the case, then Madison’s shampoo had already turned me into an actual sexy version of Edward Cullen.”

“a pair of vampires dressed like Hot Topic rejects with their hair in pigtails came racing towards us when we went outside.”

Parental guidance/trigger warnings: violence, death, description of female’s bodies, sex (not too detailed).
