Story4.5 out of 5 stars 63
Claire Hansen was a Keeper, a member of that select group that kept the universe in one piece. And now she'd been Summoned to the Elysian Fields Guesthouse, a rundown bed-and-breakfast that seemed to attract the most unusual clientele. And Claire was not happy about this latest assignment, not happy at all. Not when she'd been tricked into taking over here by a horrible little gnome of a man who'd abandoned his post before she'd even figured out who he really was. Not when room six held a resident who'd been sleeping there for so many years that she really needed a good dusting - except that it was far too dangerous for anyone to get that close to her.

Saiya Buchanan is a wraith, able to detach her shadow from her body and send it off to do her bidding. But, unlike most of her kin, Saiya doesn't deal in death. Instead, she trades secrets - and in the goblin besieged city of Stirling in Scotland, they're a highly prized commodity. It might just be, however, that the goblins have been hiding the greatest secret of them all. When Gabriel de Florinville, a Dark Elf, is sent as royal envoy into Stirling and takes her prisoner, Saiya is not only going to uncover the sinister truth.

Publisher's Summary
The Blood books center around three main characters: Vicki Nelson, a homicide cop turned private detective, her former partner Mike Celluci, who is still on the force, and vampire Henry Fitzroy, who is the illegitimate son of Henry VIII and makes his living as a writer of bodice rippers. Not only are the three of them caught in a love triangle, but they are, time and again, involved in mysteries with a supernatural slant - from demons, to werewolves, to mummies - and inevitably must join forces to solve crimes and defeat supernatural enemies. Now all of Tanya Huff's short stories about Henry, Vicki, and Mike are being released in this collection entitled Blood Bank.

Stories about the main characters Henry, Vicki, Mike and Tony
Past, present and future short stories lovingly presented. The writing is tender, thoughtful and humorous. I'm going to miss this series.

The Narration....AGHHHHHHHHHH...
If you could sum up Blood Bank in three words, what would they be?
This book combined two of my favorite things...Vicky Nelson and short stories. But the narrator is just TERRIBLE! Especially her depiction of Mike Celluci, please, could she sound any more ridiculous. It really ruins the whole series for me. I was initially introduced to this series as a short story in another book and the narrator was different, she was VERY good. That is what turned me on to this author. I am managing to squeek through these books because I do like the characters and the stories but I don't know how much more I can take.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Blood Bank?
I like the vulnerabillity of Henry in one of the stories.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Almost 100%!

Not my favorite in the series
What did you like best about Blood Bank? What did you like least?
As a fan of the series and its characters, I found myself wanting more then whats seemed a disjointed collection of vignettes.
Was Blood Bank worth the listening time?
still worth a listen but I hope for more expanded story lines in the future.
