Acerca de esta escucha
Twenty-three centuries ago the second most powerful man in the world chose life as a vampire over the uncertainty of death. His childhood friend and later his lover was none other than Alexander the Great. Legend at the time had it they were one soul inhabiting two bodies. Conquering the known world by the age of 32, they influence the world to this very day. Hephaestion introduces the listener to the whimsical vampire whose zest for all life has to offer has not waned over the centuries as he waits for Alexander to be reborn. Meet his ghost writer, his friends in modern-day Boston, and learn about his life with Alexander before hew turned into an immortal by the mysterious Quermen: a race of unfathomable age. Never growing old they simply observe.
Afflicted with AADD, Hephaestion's narration as told through his writer, Stefan Pride, is at times historically accurate, often funny, sporadically sad, and liberally peppered with some of the most visually inspiring gay erotica to ever disgrace an audiobook. With the latter in mind this work of fiction should not be heard by anyone not of legal age or anyone who finds physical love between men offensive.
Hephaestion was originally published under the title Before Eternity, but has been re-edited to correct most glaring mistakes and sentence structures. Some of the story lines have been altered for the better. If you have acquired the original book be assured that the changes in this edition will flow smoothly into subsequent volumes in the Hephaestion series.

Historia
Big City is supposedly the place where dreams come true. As someone just trying to live my life, I can tell you it’s more like a recurring nightmare where dreams get c*ckblocked at every turn. Especially if you’re a supervillain like me. The irony is that I have zero powers, despite coming from purebred villain stock, but try telling that to Big City’s beloved hero, Captain Masculine.

Whisper doesn’t remember his real name. All he knows is the elite assassin guild that raised him—and controls him with the threat of blood magic. Plagued by nightmares, he doesn’t get to refuse assignments, even when his new job doesn’t make sense: infiltrate Prince Julien’s court, protect him until the signal arrives, then kill him.

Historia
Life doesn’t always pan out as you expect. When it explodes in my face, literally, an old friend offers me a place to heal and a job renovating the kitchen of Burlington’s coolest wine bar. V&V is a chill fest. Living above it should be a blast. But I’m not built to be a social butterfly. Not anymore. I’m a damaged man. And I’m not its target clientele. At least, I think I’m not until I come face-to-face with the most beautiful human I’ve ever seen.

Historia
In deepest space the ruthless Federation lays waste to one rebel colony after another, leaving comrades-in-arms Van Orskey and Tayn Kassik without family, without a home, and without hope. With nothing left but each other, they run contraband and smuggle fugitives from the safety of their ship, the Cormorant - with the occasional clandestine mission for the rival Coalition thrown in. Their heists have not gone unnoticed, though even the bounty on their heads doesn’t prevent them from being a thorn in the enemy’s side at every opportunity. Pissing them off? Big mistake.

Though I was born with the ability to see the dead, I struggled with it until my brother was killed and his ghost was left behind. Now, I’m determined to figure out who is responsible for his death…the problem is that Detective Maddox Booker, the one working the case, is a grumpy and stubborn man who wants nothing to do with me and definitely doesn’t believe in ghosts. It doesn’t help that I keep finding myself looking ridiculous in front of the detective, thanks to interfering ghosts who enjoy laughing at my expense.

5 BIG Blue Flames
Narrator Darcy Stark delivered a highly erotic, historically correct, yet stunningly original vampire memoir. This narrator is not new to me. I have listened to many of his audiobooks, and was not once disappointed.
The plot has substance and well planned characteristics of a blockbuster movie!
Warning: If you have a mental illness, please take your meds. If you like to use illegal drugs, please skip the acid and the mushrooms.
This is such a mindf#$k, it's better to keep the Xanax close by you.
The plot starts out with Hephaestion acquiring the services of a ghost writer.
(This is where my merry-go-round started.)
He meets him in current time, and this is actually our renowned author Stefan Pride.
I thought: "Ahh, that's cute. Many authors mention their fellow authors, books or characters. Nothing new nor weird here."
But, then my mind started to whirl.
It must have been the 2300 years of history, the sex and the overwhelming believe that this depiction of Hephaestion's life is actually very-very real.
I Googled and Wikipedia the shit out of this guy! Yip he does exist!
In my lust filled haze and overproduction of endorphins, I lost contact with reality........
My recommendation would be to listen to this audiobook to experience the same twilight zone conundrum.
If Hephaestion met with Stefan Pride, and we are listening to his memoir.
Then Hephaestion is real, he really is 2300 years old, because he is on Wikipedia!
We know Stephan Pride is real, because we are listening to his audiobook.
That means Vampires do exist, because Hephaestion actually knows Stefan Pride.
Who is Stefan Pride?
I could not find much about Stefan Pride on the web. 😭.
I contacted him and asked him to submit a biography for us.
After all, this is the closest I'm ever going to get to a real vampire.
Additionally. I find it extremely suspicious that a vampire looking for his reincarnated soulmate is contacting Stefan Pride.
This must be an indication that Hephaestion finally found Alexander reincarnated!
See his biography on my website.
Happy Listening
