Vampire Empress

Vampire for Hire, Book 21

By: J.R. Rain, Matthew S. Cox

Narrated by: Stacy Dugan

Samantha Moon would go to the ends of the Earth to stop Elizabeth....

Or into another world entirely.

Fourteen years ago, her life forever changed, entwined with the darkest of dark vampires.

From that night forward, Elizabeth has been part of her, ever a step ahead.

However, the Dark One grows impatient.

Taking over modern Earth presents certain annoyances for a vampire army, like mortals with access to nuclear weapons.

However, an alternate world much like ours from 2,000 years ago would be defenseless against her.

Temptation proves too great.

Elizabeth abandons Earth, bent on repeating the war of domination that sent her to The Void five hundred years ago.

Earth may be safe, but Sam cannot stand by and let her enslave an entire alien world.

With her daughter, son, and Max at her side, she seizes a rare opportunity to catch Elizabeth off guard.

Let the battle begin...

Vampire for hire

Vampire Empress by J. R. Rain and Matthew S. Cox is an excellent vampire mystery. Stacy Dugan did a ok job with the narration, I don’t know if I’m used to the old narrator or Stacy is not used to the story but something is missing. Vampire Empress is the 21 book in the Vampire For Hire series. The story is interesting, entertainment, enjoyable, mysterious, funny, and more. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. Highly recommend

I read as a stand alone

Okay I have read maybe 3 books in the series and they were all out of order which is on me. In spite of the fact that this is number 21 I was able to get into it without much trouble. The narrator is absolutely phenomenal. The storyline is extremely busy and action packed. There's no real down time in it for the characters they go go go. I appreciate the effort taken so that a reader is not too lost if they start the series here

The poor narration negates the quality of the story

I have listened to all of the books in this series, and loved them. This one suffered from poor narration. The odd cadence and inflections made the writing seem like it was not up to par, I have not experienced that in the other books, so I assume that the writing was the same and the vocal was the issue. This book in particular feels more like reading a long form video game, they even reference video games a few times in the book which punctuated that general vibe.

Terrible narration

All of the characters sound the same. The gaspy whisper speech is absolutely aggravating. I had to keep rewinding because I couldn't tell who was talking. I don't know why the narrator was replaced. I won't continue with the series if this is the narrator.

ugh

why why whyyyy?!?!! why would you let Dina go?!?!! that had to be the dumbest thing you’ve ever done mr rain. did she want more money? you Should have given her whatever she wanted! she IS sam!! this new .. person .. just. ugh. what’s with all the breathy whispering?! and everyone sounds the saaaame. it’s just wrong. sooo very very wrong. i’m only on chapter 2 and i want to throw my phone. i’m going to finish it cause i have to know what happens, but i’m speeding up the narration. i just .. seriously, i’d rather listen to virtual voice! this is total total crap. rant over i guess. so not impressed ..
