The Dangerous Book for Demon Slayers

By: Angie Fox

Narrated by: Tavia Gilbert

Length: 8 hrs and 7 mins

Publisher's Summary

New York Times best-selling series! Demon slaying powers should come with an instruction book...Seriously. Why does a new hair dryer have a twelve-page how-to manual, but when it comes to ancient demon-fighting hocus-pocus, my biker witch granny gives me just half a dozen switch stars and a rah-rah speech? Oh, and a talking terrier, but that's another story. It's not like my job as a preschool teacher prepared me for this kind of thing. So I've decided to write my own manual: The Dangerous Book for Demon Slayers, because no one tells me anything. Dimitri, my "protector," may be one stud of a shape-shifting griffin, but he always thinks he can handle everything by himself. Only he's no match for the soul-stealing succubi taking over Las Vegas. If I can't figure out how to save him - and Sin City - there'll be hell to pay.

Love this series

Would you consider the audio edition of The Dangerous Book for Demon Slayers to be better than the print version?

It was not better than the print version- just different.

What does Tavia Gilbert bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She brings Lizzie to life. I had read the print book first and going through the story again with someone acting out the characters was amazing. Tavia really makes you believe that she is Lizzie and that it's all real.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No. I could only devote an hour or two at a time.

Any additional comments?

I love Angie Fox's books and to now have the option to get them on Audible is great. It's fun to have the story brought to life. There's nothing like laughing out loud in your car while listening to it and having everyone around you wonder what you are listening to. This series with Lizzie, Grandma, Dimitri, and Pirate is fantastic. I have been a fan for years. This is Book 2 and it takes newly minted demon slayer Lizzie to Vegas to battle some succubi, save her love Dimitri, pass her slayer test, and hopefully not get killed in the process. It is a fun read from beginning to end.

Loved the story, the narration not so much

Angie Fox delivers another wonderful installment in the Demon Slayer series. while I thoroughly enjoyed the story, the narration left a lot to be desired. it started out ok but them she became whiny and quavery like she was the entire first book. it makes Lizzie sound like a weak, whiny woman instead of the strong heroine she is.

Needs explicit language warnings

This series is good but Audible should give it an explicit language and action warnings.

Tavia Gilbert makes this cute series phenomenal!

The stories are really good. Cute. But I'm not much into girly romance, and I think that's all I'd read without Tavia' s incredible talent. My imagination just isn't that good, and like I said I don't really like romance, I actually skip the sex scenes but I love the way she does Lizzy's voice. She sounds so quintessential preschool teacher with her cute little glasses, perfectly tailored, never a hair out of place. You can literally hear that about her. I feel like theres always a giggle in her voice. I love it. Especially when Dimitri is about to do all those things that only happens in girly romance books. Angie Fox created unique, interesting characters and Tavia gives them life. A great match up!

A bit explicit.

While a good book, the very explicit sex is a bit of a surprise. Not sure that it's completely necessary for the story.

A great read!

I have to say his was a great story. I thought the way the characters interacted and he storyline were flawless, however, it was a little too much in a few spots. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. There was just a lot going on to keep up with.

As always Tavia Gilbert did an amazing job bringing this story to life. It makes the book much more enjoyable when you can have someone bring it to life for you and hats what she does.

Pirate, OMG, I love that little dog! He is to die for. Lizzie wouldn’t be as badass without him, Demetri or the Red Skulls. I can’t wait to see what happens next.

Demonslayer Yeah!!!

Loved the Book and all of it's characters. Now on to the third book. Fantastic!!!

Biker bars & Vegas

Loved thr book. this is the next book in the series. They travel to Las Vegas to stop a demon attach.

great storyline love it can't wait to read more of

your books. I had a hard time putting it down love the dog very funny.

What happens in Vegas

I liked the story for the most, although the defeatist attitude Lizzy had towards the end was a tad irritating.
On the whole though, the new characters were interesting and made for amusing moments.
The narrator was great and kept the tension and flow at just the right pace.
