Vampires and electricity!

This book is hard to categorize. Part historical fiction, part steampunk, and part vampire novel, it's an interesting read. The book follows the inventors Nikolai Tesla and Thomas Edison across the country while they fight to come out on top of the race to provide electricity. But, along the way, they also encounter a man who is actually a vampire! He is determined to stop the spread of light so that darkness will continue to rule the night.

There is a lot of scientific information in the book, which I found to be interesting. The characters were well-written and relatable and there was enough action to keep the story moving at a fast pace. The ending of the book paves the way for more stories like this one and I look forward to seeing what the author has in store next.

The narrator, S.W. Salzman, is one of my favorite narrators and he does his usual wonderful performance. His voices for the different characters help the listener keep track of the fast pace and his pacing is perfect.

Tesla, the hero we wanted.

The creativity and historical antidotes! Tesla is a great character to bleed fiction and non-fiction fun.

Awesome

The narrator was great his voice easy to understand Will listen to more books read by him. Great book

Fun and Fantastic

This is an extremely enjoyable and mlticulaulusly researched book. The narrator does an awesome job and brings life to the characters. Highly recommended. I particularly like the use of historical figures as the protagonists and love both Tesla and Ida.
