Lord of the Vampires

De: Gena Showalter

Narrado por: Genvieve Bevier

Once upon a time… the Blood Sorcerer vanquished the kingdom of Elden. To save their children, the queen scattered them to safety and the king filled them with vengeance. Only a magical timepiece connects the four royal heirs - and time is running out.

Nicolai the Vampire was renowned for his virility, but in a twist of fate “The Dark Seducer” had become a sex slave in the kingdom of Delfina - stripped of his precious timepiece and his memory. All that remained was a primal need for freedom, revenge - and the only woman who could help him.

In her dreams, a wanton vampire called to Jane Parker, drawing her to his dark sexuality and his magical realm. But for a human, all was not a fairy tale in Delfina. Jane was the key to Nicolai’s memory… but exploiting her meant dooming the only mortal he craved.

Lord of the the Vampire.

Well this an amazing book and interesting story. Life have a way of bring things in motion. Yet one thinks he use her to get his freedom but only for him to found out the he cannot get way from her. They were faced with many upstarcile and evils powers. But in the end it was love that save them and the will for love that gave them hope, faith, and courage to find each other again.

Story "So so" - Narrator "Not so much"

Gena, Gena, Gena what on earth happened?! Yikes! "Mine" "My woman/man" Really? I could swear you know better than this. The narrator. uggghhh what can I say. She reads the Eugenie Markham Series with Richelle Mead and it is fine. Every male character in this story sounded horrible - how could you listen to the daily takes and think, "Yeah, this lead guy needs to sound just like the ogres and dimwitted throughout the entire book." I know everyone knows better than this including the production staff. I listen only to audiobooks so I am absolutely sure everyone could have done a better job. I speak from the experience of enjoying all of Gena's other stories, other narration by Genvieve and listening to better production from the publisher.

Ok

3.5 Stars. I think I would have liked this more if I had read it vs listening to the audiobook. The narrator was good with most character voices...until she did the heroes voice. Unfortunately, her male voice made me cringe. I know I’m pretty picky about that, so I tried to ignore her performance of his character and enjoy the story despite it. I did like this story and will have to do a re-read with the book another time.

Not the best. Not the worst.

You can tell this is one of the earlier books. Not as well written as many of the others. And the performance didn't help things if I'm honest. Still a solid purchase. Just wasn't as enraptured as I've come to expect from Gena Showalter's books.

great book, bad narrator

did not like the narrator at all. the way she did nicolais voice made him sound really slow, like the ogres. it was very annoying.
