Set in present-day Los Angeles, Junk explores an epic conspiracy, one at work for thousands of years that involves total takeover of the planet Earth by aliens. In the wild, souped-up vision of Les Bohem - the acclaimed, Emmy-winning writer of the Steven Spielberg miniseries, Taken - the world is at the end stage of long-range plot that involves a gigantic genetic-engineering project. The aliens who have invaded us have no planet. No spaceship is coming. Instead, a small advance force comes, breeds, and dies - thus becoming an anomaly in our DNA that can’t be explained.

The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Poor recording quality makes this a poor choice
I have been an Audible subscriber for over a year now, and this is by far the worst sounding book I have purchased to date. Even downloading it at quality 4, it is distorted with static and tinny. I wish that I had listened to the sample before purchasing this book as the quality greatly effects the emersion of one in the story.

Best of the series
If you could sum up The Queen of the Damned in three words, what would they be?
Best in series
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Queen of the Damned?
When the queen confronted the mountain top vampire in India
Have you listened to any of Kate Nelligan’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
n/a
Who was the most memorable character of The Queen of the Damned and why?
The queen herself because as evil as she was, you could understand her thoughts and reasoning.
Any additional comments?
I know the die-hard Ann Rice fans, at the time of this book's release, hated it, but I thought she'd topped herself.

Audio Quality.....BAD
I read this book a long time ago and was looking forward to revisiting the audio version. The sound quality is TERRIBLE. I have never had an issue with any audiobooks and have always been VERY happy but this was the pits.....there is a background buzz and it sounds like it was recorded in a cave. I did not care for the abridged version as it jumps and seems broken. I couldn't even make it through the first hour it was so bad.

Beautiful but hard to follow
As a long time fan of Anne Rice and her Vampire books, I delved quickly into Queen of the Damned. While I enjoyed the story, I found it at times very difficult to follow. The ABRIDGED recording seemed to jump at innoportune places and left me wondering what I had missed. Those seeking more insight into the lives of certain vampires, such as Pandora, Louis or Maruis, will find that there place has largely been cut from the story. Fans may want to wait for an unabridged recording to come out. Or read the book.

Awful
After listening to The Vampire Lestat, this story and narration was just unbearable. It took many days to get through and even now I'm left puzzled by the story due to the awful character voices. The male playing Lestat in this story really ruined this audio book. It was as if he were doing a terrible Jack Nicholson impersonation. The woman's voice was unsure and not soothing, overall this story was just awful to listen to. I'm happy it's over and I'm sincerely hoping the next book won't be so painful.

Not the full book
What would have made The Queen of the Damned better?
If the recording was the full story
Would you ever listen to anything by Anne Rice again?
Absolutely....I have listened to the Simon Vance recording of this book (as well as the previous 2 books in the series) and cannot describe how much better it is
What didn’t you like about Kate Nelligan’s performance?
it jumped around too much, skipped over most of the story, the music ran over the voices making it difficult to hear and the "sultry" voice was not appropriate and make it awkward to listen to.
Any additional comments?
Do yourself a favour and buy the Simon Vance recording instead
