Blood Born

By: Linda Howard, Linda Jones

Narrated by: Vanessa Hart

When the human and the vampire worlds collide, there will be hell to pay.

Luca Ambrus is a rare breed: vampire from birth, begotten by vampire parents, blood born. He is also an agent of the Council—the centuries-old cabal that governs vampirekind, preserving their secrecy and destroying those who betray them.

When a cryptic summons leads him to the scene of the brutal killing of a powerful Council member, Luca begins the hunt for an assassin among his own people. But instead of a lone killer he discovers a sinister conspiracy of rogue vampires bent on subjugating the mortal world.

All that stands in their way are the conduits, humans able to channel spirit warriors into the physical world to protect mankind. Chloe Fallon is a conduit—and a target of the vampire assassin who’s killing them. When Luca saves her life, an irresistible bond of trust—along with more passionate feelings—is forged between them. As more victims fall, Chloe and Luca have only each other to depend on to save the world from the reign of monsters—and salvage their own future together.

Good book, don't let the cover art fool you!

I didn't get this book for a long time despite the good reviews because the cover art was so cheesy. The old adage regarding books and covers has been proven to me once again. I found this book really entertaining, the world it is set in was interesting without being too complicated, and the characters were about as multi-dimensional as you get in books like this (with the exception of maybe the BDB series). Best paranormal romance I've listened to in a while.

Excellent

Would you consider the audio edition of Blood Born to be better than the print version?

I really like this book. I only hope that a second one comes out soon it will be a great series!!!

What about Vanessa Hart???s performance did you like?

Vanessa is a reader who brings you into the story

Not a fantasy fan but still LOVED it!

Even though I should have been studying, I could not stop listening to this book. I enjoyed it so much that I was glad the ending of the book had some loose ends that can lead to stories for some of the other main characters. I sure hope there are further stories in the works for Nevada, Sarin and the character hinted at in the ending of the book.

Character development

I usually don’t go for this genre but this book was well written and an overall good read! I moving on to the sequel!

Different but a great read.

This book was a little different than the normal vampire books. I enjoyed it a lot and the suspense was great between the race to cross over between the warriors and the vamp. There was even a surprise twist in the end that made it even more interesting. I hope that Linda Howard and Linda Jones continue the theme into a series as there are several avenues to go. Be assured that the book does not leave you on a cliff the will frustrate you, just a thought that if another book comes out you will want to read it also.
