About this listen

‘If you only read one book series this year, Rise of the Red Claws is the one you simply cannot miss’–Patricia Emmins

‘Awake had me hooked from the get-go. Nell and Christopher will give you the feels’–BookLuvBoards

‘Like nothing you’ve read before. Awake is a stunning debut from a fresh new talent’–Spooks+Books

I’m an ordinary girl ... but a brooding vampire is about to turn my world upside down

Christopher Deverell is caretaker of the Red Claw Family, a brood of vampires so blood-thirsty that they were forced into slumber for a century by the Council of Elders.

Nell Cartwright’s life has been torn apart after the tragic deaths of her parents. Desperate, she turns to her reclusive aunt in Angel Falls.

Not all is as it seems in the small town … and now an ancient evil is awakening ... as well as her feelings for an enigmatic vampire.

Christopher and Nell are plunged into a dangerous world where Old Magick and supernatural creatures make for heart-stopping adventure.

Anya Kelner has created a thrilling, suspenseful and heart-warming saga set in a rich world of mystery and danger.

I want hours of my life back!

i hate being negative, but here it goes and i will identify the positives as well. The story lacks a strong plot. it has one that i thought was going to be good but not much was done with it. the editing, however, was spot on, and probably as close to perfect as one can get. I fell asleep several times during the book, would wake up and have to backtrack to where I left off. the main characters are developed pretty ok "ish". it was more like a well done OUTLINE of a book, than an actual book. I really only finished it because I paid for it.
My Suggestions: Pull the current version of the book OFF the shelves & site. Spend more time developing the characters, plot, and audience/character connection. we need to identify with the feelings of the characters. As in : introduce us, seduce us, intrigue us, hook us, yo-yo our emotions, make us struggle with sides, and keep us guessing. this book has a lot of potential, but as is, is just sleepy material. I will NOT be continuing the series as i seriously regret the money I spent on this one. HOWEVER, I DO NOT WISH TO DISCOURAGE the AUTHOR. UNIQUE IDEAS are HARD to FIND. I WOULD LIKE TO ENCOURAGE the AUTHOR to take another look at it, don't just add filler, look at SUGGESTIONS ABOVE, and if you have friends you TRUST to be HONEST with you about the good & the BAD, you could start a brain storming group to get fresh ideas and above ALL TRUTH. If you need help, I'm AVAILABLE, ONLY because I see POTENTIAL HERE that could be great with some HELP, But you'll need a group of brain storming honest people. variety is the spice of life and diversified opinions can improve this so much. I truly wish you the best of luck. take this down and add some quality and turn it into a best seller!
