Critic reviews

"Jane gets into a complicated stew involving human and vampire rivalries, the ancient vampire-witch conflict, the New Orleans police, and her need to balance her beast and human natures. What with puzzles, chases (including a climactic one to rescue children), lots of blood, and some explicit sex, count on this to please thriller and dark romance fans alike." ( Booklist)

Vampires and Witches, Oh my.

Faith Hunter weaves a marvelous tale again in the Jane Yellowrock saga. She puts a fantastic spin on the origins of vampirism in this tale and ties in all the characters from the first novel. A completely satisfying listen and nice conclusion to the story's events. Christine Hvam is wonderful in her performance and if I'm being honest. The reason I chose this series. I am not a fan of vampires and vampire lore. But these stories are entertaining.

Love Khristine Hvam!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Absolutely! I love Jane! She's so capable and willing to do what she needs to but she also does what she loves!

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

I would have to say Night Huntress series by Jeaniene Frost. Both stories center around a kick butt woman who goes after vampires.

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

Khristine Hvam brings out the sarcasm of Jane. I love how she voices Jane.

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

I think the whole book kept my attention and I found myself always cheering Jane on or sympathizing with her. Faith Hunter and Khristine Hvam do an awesome job with the story.

Any additional comments?

I haven't listened to any other books narrated by Khristine Hvam but I have read another series by Faith Hunter. The Rogue Mage trilogy is wonderful!! I love Thorn St. Croix. If you like the way Faith Hunter writes you should really check out the Rogue Mage novels: Bloodring, Seraphs, and Host (in order).

well written, entertaining

the reader does a good job of bring the main character to life, and by main character I mean Beast. oh she does a good job with Jane as well I guess XD

if you're thinking about, buy it.

I just don't like how "big cat" speaks. otherwise it's a great book!

need fifteen words for review blah blah blah

More exciting that book 1

I liked this storyline better than book 1. The character development is a little richer and there's more excitement throughout.

The narrator did a good job again, no complaints there. There's a little romance in this one, but nothing too steamy. I'll probably listen to book 3 at some point, but decided to take a break and listen to something else first.
