Eternal Hunger

Mark of the Vampire Series, Book 1

De: Laura Wright

Narrado por: Tavia Gilbert

In the dark, fear and desire are one.... Alexander Roman wants nothing to do with the controlling rulers of his vampire breed or the family he escaped from a hundred years ago. But as a new threat to the pureblood vampires emerges, Alexander's ties to the past are forced upon him again, and without warning, he finds himself - disoriented, terrified, and near death - at the door of a stranger.

Dr. Sara Donahue is dedicated to removing the traumatic memories of her patients - like those of the stranger at her front door. But what he tells her of his past is too astonishing to believe. Yet she has seen his flesh scarred by the sun and witnessed his inhuman strength. And never before has she felt so connected to a man.... But as their worlds collide, Sara and Alexander are bound by something stronger, as one becomes hunter and the other, prey.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Wright launches a powerful series with a rich mythology, page-turning tension, and blistering sensuality." ( Publishers Weekly)

Good book

What did you like best about Eternal Hunger? What did you like least?

I liked the synergy between the brothers best. Too much sex and not enough romance for me.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Somewhat predictable

What three words best describe Tavia Gilbert’s performance?

Great, energetic, authentic

Was Eternal Hunger worth the listening time?

Yes

Any additional comments?

Although i liked this book, i didnt live it. Second book in the series is much better, leaves me wanting more.

Fantastic Sexy Listen, Gimme more!

Any additional comments?

If you love JR Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood and Lara Adrian's Midnight Breed you will enjoy the first book of the series. These Vampires appear to be a little more heated and aggressive. There is a riveting plot that left me wanting for more, so I will be listening to the next book in the series. Most likely...them all.

Action & Romance. My kind of story.

I really liked this book. I was hooked from the beginning. Plan to read the next in the series.

GREAT BOOK

I Started this series cause I love the Narrator and fell in love with this book and whole series.

House wife obsessed with vampires. ;)

The story is a good listen, the narrator is wonderful, and overall I'm excited for the entire series. The language can be a shock occasionally (in the "romantic" areas). Definitely not a child's book. I recommend it for all others though!

Hunger for more

This is a great start to a new vampire series. The Roman brothers have just enough edge and sex appeal to draw you in from the start. Their world is interesting to say the least, but what makes this a good start is the pace. The author doesn't draw out the story but gets right to the point. I looking for to the next installment.If you enjoyed the breed series you will definitely enjoy listening.

Love Tavia Gilbert

I love Tavia Gilbert voices. I chose this book because of her. The book was OK. I may give this writer a second chance by listening to the 2nd in the series but I am not crazy about this one.

loved it!

awesome book! can't wait to start the next one. love Tavia Gilbert as a narrator and Laura Wright is becoming a favorite author. The story was engaging and hard to stop listening to.

Similar to many others

I liked this story. I didn’t love it. It reminds me of so many other series that I’ve read
Tavia Gilbert is a terrific narrator though so I may listen to one or two more.

I'll Go Back for Seconds

This book had some rough spots for me, but overall was good enough to make me interested in buying the next book in the series.

What I do like: I like genre vampire fiction, and this book is that. I like dominant male characters, and this book provides that too. I like a happy ending to the love story. That box is ticked as well. The narration, well, it was the usual excellence you can expect from Tavia Gilbert.

What I don't like: Her "world building" for this series is a bit sloppily done. Perhaps it was just me, but I found myself getting a bit confused about "where" the hero or heroine (or both) were, what the order was really like, or exactly what powers the hero possessed after "morpho". It's like she introduced things without explaining or describing them adequately. Another problem for me has been mentioned by others: the use of the c word during the sex scenes. It added this element of crudity to the scenes that I didn't find pleasant or necessary.

Overall, this book was good enough to have gotten my curiosity stirred, and I'll get the next book in the series. It's not the best vamp romance you'll find out there, but it's by far not the worst. Worth your time, but don't expect the earth to move.
