Undeath and Taxes

Fred, the Vampire Accountant Series #2

By: Drew Hayes

Narrated by: Kirby Heyborne

After discovering just how filled with magic, intrigue, and adventure the parahuman world of being an undead American can be, Fredrick Frankford Fletcher did exactly what was expected - he became a certified parahuman accountant. Myths and legends, as it turns out, are not so great at taking appropriate deductions and keeping their receipts, and Fred is more than happy to return to a life others view as woefully dull, expanding his accounting business to cater to various monsters and their respective financial needs. Said monsters are, unfortunately, still spectacular at pulling Fred into trouble, though. And despite merely wanting to stick with simple paperwork, Fred once again finds that he is going to have to deal with enchanted weaponry, government agents, possessed houses, and one enigmatic dragon's interest. In the parahuman world, any business can turn deadly, even one as mundane as accounting.

Great listen!!!

I really enjoyed the second book in the series. Very well written and the characters are very well-defined.
I can't wait for the next installment.

My New Favourite Mind Candy

Just because one dies does not mean that one changes. Fred, the CPA (certified parahuman accountant) and self-professed boring vampire, returns in book two ready to fight for his friends in Winslow Colorado against some super-nasty bad dudes. Great new characters abound, including Charlott Manor, the house with real personality, and a new sombre agent that reluctantly teams up with Fred and his agent girlfriend. Favourites from the first book return, including the zombie who is now Fred's intern. Be ready for laughs, but also to care about these wonderful characters.

awesome series!

I am in love with fresh the vampire! I'm going straight to the next book in the series.

Not just another vampire story

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. I never got bored with what was going on, and even if there are some cliche elements to the story, they don't seem over done or like every other vampire trope.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Bubba. I love that he's this big strong guy who's no-nonsense, but not a hard ass.

Have you listened to any of Kirby Heyborne’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Only the first book in this series, which is pretty much the same by comparison.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

even being dead doesn't get you out of paying paxes

2nd Listen Through

Just as enjoyable and wonderful as the first time I listened to this series! Great book, great VO talent!

Just perfect for the vampire fan

When I first started the first book of the series, I was afraid that the characters would be as dry and bland as Fred, but I was delighted with a plethora of fantastic vibrant characters. The second book continues that, bringing in new characters, new struggles, and new tax forms for Fred to finish. The ending gives a bigger and more mysterious reveal than the last book, opening some new interesting avenues for the story to go. I'm excited to see where the story goes next!

loved this book

Very cute and entertaining book. Very different vampire story. looking forward to getting more. enjoyed the reader as well.

Super cute and interesting

Nice fun book. Very PG without losing ability to keep adult listeners engaged. If you know this author and like his work you won't be disappointed with book one and two which is as far as I have gotten with Fred's adventures.
The narrator is pretty good as well.

love it!

This is the second book in the series, its as great as the first and im going to get the third as soon as I finish writing this comment.
Thank you Drew Hayes for the wonderful books filled with very enjoyable characters.

Even better than the first

As I said in the title I liked this one even better than the first so don't hesitate if you liked that one.
