Midnight Mass

De: F. Paul Wilson

Narrado por: Jamie Renell

Vampires have always lived in Eastern Europe. But with the fall of the Soviet Union, they began to spread across the continent, then the world, turning whole populations into vampires - or human cattle. Having overrun India, the far East, and the great cities of North and South America, the forces of Night are now spreading into the countryside to consolidate their conquest.

In a town on the New Jersey shore, the vampires have just arrived, along with their human henchmen, the cowboys, who round up human cattle for the overlords in return for the promise of eternal life - later. For the vampires wish only a few of their own kind to rule, and feed. The rest of humanity are to be helpless herds, the source of the blood of life.

Falsely accused of abuse, Father Joe is drunk in a basement waiting for the end. His superior has betrayed the local Catholic congregation and become a vampire. Sister Carolyn has become a formidable killer of cowboys and vampires. Joe's niece, escaped from the conquest of New York, has made her way south to find him. Brought together by Rabbi Zev Wolpin, who is shaken by the vampires’ fear of the cross and holy water, they plan their resistance. Against all odds, they discover that there just might be a way for humanity to really fight back. But first they will have to kill the vampire king of New York.

One of my absolute favorite books!

One of my absolute favorite books! I have read it dozens of times had to purchase several copies and I'm very excited to now have it and in audio format!

Honestly good idea not well done

Really weird how this guy described women’s body’s. It’s just super uncomfortable and takes away from the story.

goid

vampires are inherently a Christian monster so I was confused by the people upset about the Christian undertones. If you are trying to stick to original vampire lore you have to have Christian undertones. this story is completely different than the Netflix TV series. honestly not sure where they got that storyline from. only similarities are character names and the description of elder vampires. this is a good book otherwise I would recommend it.

I was sucked in

fantastic story and an even better performance. I couldn't stop listening. I was sad when it was over.

My Absolute Favorite Book I’ve ever read

The story is absolute gold! The best way I can describe it is apocalypse, but add vampires. The traditional vampires was a breath a fresh air! Don’t think just download and listen, you won’t be disappointed! I could not recommend this book enough!

So many twists….

Great story-sad it’s over, would love for the story to continue. Very good book

brutal, bloody, and exactly what I was looking for!

The narration is easy to follow and he nails it. This book does an amazing job at getting you attached to a character. I admired Father Joe more and more as the story went on. Did I mention this books brutal? not for the feint of heart. Gruesome scenes will be painted in your mind that will make you stop and go "wtf".

I was surprised!

I’ve read many vampire books, this was included, so I downloaded it and enjoyed the read.

Great listen

I truly found this book to be vastly entertaining and a breath of fresh air for the vampire genre. I remember how much I enjoyed the Netflix adaptation and this book is even better. Loved the voice work as well.

Excellent spin on vampires!

I loved that this wasn't the usual vampire book, it was exciting I didn't want to put it down!
