An Unknown Adventure

As a teen, 15-16, this series was one of my absolute favorites. I remember when I was gifted the first 3 books from a friend and then had to wait for these to release. it's a unique take on the vampire, post-apocalyptic, and war adventure series. It won't be for everyone, but it is a solid series with good writing. It can be a little graphic here or there, so not for young kids but an excellent post-apocalyspe for teens.

This is one of the best books from the series, with the next book being a wildfire of fun. Give this a chance. I've never heard it in audio book format and it's better than I remember.

EE Knight read by Christian Rummel - Awesome!

I so enjoy EE Knight's work. It's very visceral, very authentic, very human. Read by Christian Rummel, EE Knight's work comes to life and is thoroughly satisfying. Way of the Wolf is the first of 8, soon to be 9 (very hopefully) and sets the stage for a very rich, interesting story. At the risk of sounding a bit sexist, Vampire Earth may be a bit strong for some gals and youngsters (parental discretion...) EE Knight has a unique way of telling a story that has historically accurate tidbits strewn nicely through out along with geographical interest and human condition, all very certain, even painfully so in the sense of the deeper truths of mankind.

My new favorite series!!!!!!!!!!!

E. E. Knight is my my new favorite author and David Valentine is my new favorite hero!! The story sucks you in and doesn't let you go!

A Decent but Straightforward book

Let me start by saying that this book did a good job with the vampire trope. Knight turned it in a different direction and changed a few parts of the mythos. I liked this and thought it was rather refreshing, since I am not usually a fan of vampire novels. I also liked the military aspects of the novel, and I thought he did a good job with the action in the book. The problem was the fact that the novel was incredibly predictable with absolutely no plot twists. This is the type of novel you read to pass time on a car drive or something. NOT that it is a bad book, it is just very simplistic and entertaining, it doesn't make you think. The narrator did a good job and helped liven up the story a good bit. Overall, I enjoyed this read and I may buy the second book at some point in the future.

Surprised

I listen to good amount of audio books. I can say this is a top of line audiobook. I enjoy zombie and vampire audiobooks, and enjoy post apocalypse audiobooks. This book caught me by surprise very well written kept my attention at every Turn. Great main character!

Not something I can get into.

This series began with promise but the story never developed into something that I could spend a lot of time with. The narration was great but story very weak. Maybe it would get better with 2nd novel but I'm not game. Sorry.

great book. great series.

always enjoyed the books. listening is a different experience, but I can do it while I'm at work. very please all around.

OUTSTANDING!!

I've read the book but this is insanely good! loved every moment the writing let's you see everything and the performer enhances every character breathing new life into each one. I highly recommend this series in ether format book or audio.

No plot

This book sounded great on the surface: A post-apocalyptic civilization battling the forces of evil. Sadly, it greatly disappointed.

The book is pretty much devoid of any plot; it simply follows an emotionless character around on his mostly random, boring journey. The author must certainly be from the Midwest farming communities, because he spends so much time talking about livestock and horses. The dialog feels forced and not how real people would speak.

I found the narration irritating, mostly because the narrator is not suited for this genre. He sounds too nice and "goodie", and takes away any creepiness or suspense this book might otherwise have.

If you are looking for a modern vampire/horror type of series to get into, I highly suggest the Joe Pitt Casebooks over this series.

Won't b continuing the series

SO much explanation in the beginning. I got the story by the end I guess...but I was confused where the book was going most times
