Blood & Salt

By: Hubert L. Mullins

Narrated by: Kendra McMahon

An unsinkable ship. A blood-soaked secret. And something hungry beneath the decks.

April 10th, 1912: Titanic begins her maiden voyage with an ancient evil hiding deep in her cargo hold. By the time the sun rises on the second day, passengers are missing, drained of blood, or returning with a hunger they can’t explain.

Something is feeding in the dark below deck.

Dr. Benjamin York, a weary assistant surgeon, only wants a fresh start—but a strange illness spreading through steerage demands his attention. Fiona Lynch, a third-class passenger fleeing her past, just wants to get her son to safety—but the ship is filling with shadows.

Together, they uncover a terrifying truth: a monstrous presence is turning Titanic’s final hours into a slaughter.

Blood & Salt is a gripping blend of supernatural horror and historical tragedy—an alternate history where vampires stalk the Ship of Dreams.

Great read!

I will admit I was skeptical. I have always been fascinated with stories of the titanic and when you mix in the idea of mixing in vampires, I figured the history would be lost. I was pleasantly surprised. The story held pretty true to historical accounts. The character development was perfect and the storyline intriguing. If you’re looking for a nonstop, action packed, battles of humanity versus vampire this may not be the book for you. The story focuses around the vampires onboard but isn’t as bloody or horror filled as some typical vampire novels. However, I was hooked by the second chapter. Well worth the money and the time. I definitely enjoyed it and highly recommend it. Such a unique and engaging read!

Decent story

Narrator was ok. Not scary at all my 11 year old daughter listened with me. I like anything to do with the titanic and vampires so that’s a plus. Overall I liked it prefer if it was more horror but it was good story to share with my daughter who loves horror also.

Enjoyed it

Never sure how I feel about vampire stories but this one blended a favorite topic of mine so I gave it a shot. Not super gory but enough to keep horror fans satisfied. Narrator was good for the most part, but I struggled to differentiate some of the characters. Glad I read this one!

Good Story, Monotone Narration

I thought the story was pretty good. Titanic with a twist as someone else put it. However, the narrator was bland and monotone throughout much of the story.

Icy Water and Vampires!

Historical fiction can be fun, and this is a good example why.

So many people, including myself, are fascinated with stories of the Titanic, both real stories and fictional ones. I’ve never considered the Titanic could be more of a horror story than it originally was, but this book explored a fun angle I never thought of—what if the Titanic were full of vampires?

Atmospheric and moody, I loved this story and the way it followed characters of different social classes to really give us an idea of what life was like for many different people on the Titanic.

I was captivated to the very end.
