Story is good, but the Narrator

The story is OK but the narrator sounds like she talks through her nose. It is a bit grating.

The narrator is a screamer

While the story was great the narrator literally screamed read the book. Her voice was very grating. I hope they change her for book 3.

Horrible narration

“He lahvs hah! Tempah! Ah ah ah! Is it really necessary for our narrator to darn near shout every line. I tried. I reeeeally tried to give her a chance despite reviews and not liking the sample piece offered. Was there an accent mark above any word ending in the letters “er”? And pronouncing it as “AH!” each time? The voice was grating. The heroine’s voice was stilted and monotonous. I think I’ll charge my kindle and use my text-to-speech option

Entertaining second book....

i have been a fan for many years of Frater. this book did not disappoint!
Following the aftermath of Lady Glynis' marriage to Dracula and new vampire life, we are thrust head first into action, drama, and bloody murder! While I personally wished for a bigger ending, I am in love with the characters. I hold my breath for their happy ending always knowing that you can't always have happy (or ending, for that matter,) when vampires are involved! The narrator did a decent job, though I am partial to the first in book 1. I did read these books one after the other so It was very easy to compare.
Overall I was pleased and recommend this book, only after reading the first, The Tale of the Vampire Bride.

Narrator needs to TAKE A BREATH

I enjoyed the Vampire Bride, but returned this book. The narrator was like listening to someone on ramble on without taking a breath. The voices for characters were so similar that without pausing, the listener has no idea which character is talking. To irritating to listen to.

Great story But Slow Down

Good story! Good series! But! The narration throws me off a bit! She speaks to fast! But overall the story is a good continuation of the Vampire Bride. I’m reading the next book in the series.

highly recommended!!!

i absolutely loved this book! i could not put it down! the story is wonderful and the narration truly brings it to life! each character is so exquisitely written with life breathed into them with every word through the narration!

Fantastic

Loved it!!! It was a great read. I can't wait to read the next book.

Well done, and no, the narrator is not a Screamer

I thoroughly enjoyed this audio-book, and despite the misplaced criticism of some listeners towards it narrator, I cannot imagine anyone else breathing life into the tale. As for the world of Countess Dracula itself, the author has created a complex and believable universe that brings new depth to the vampire mythos. I will definitely continue with this series with Ms. McKernan serving as my guide.

True Old Fashioned Gothic Dracula

Great continuation of story. Love the characters and the settings. No dull moments! Reminds me so much of the old Christopher Lee Dracula movies! I recommend this book to all vampire fans!

As good as the first book.

This is a very dark vampire story in parts and may not be to everyone's taste. Some of the story may be triggering for some people, but it is a good take on the dracula story.
Didn't like the narration as much as the first book.

Great story - awful narration

I love Rhiannon’s work. I especially like her Zombie fiction.
I’m sure I would have loved reading this book - however the narration was awful.
I kept checking to see if I’d accidentally put it on fast speed! The narrator seemed be shouting the story at a fast rate.
I felt it was a trial to get through and was almost relieved to finish it. Which is really sad as Rhiannon’s work is fabulous and this certainly does not do her justice as an author.

Narrator spoiled it

I really enjoyed the first book. I would have enjoyed this one far more if it had had a decent narrator!

great book
