Monsters

Prodigium Academy, Book 1

By: Katie May

Narrated by: Bridget Bordeaux, Jake Bordeaux

As the daughter of Dracula, you would think I’d be born the perfect monster.

You couldn’t be more wrong.

As far as monsters go, I’m a screw up—if I’m not tripping over my own feet, I’m accidentally murdering someone (it’s a real issue, guys).

Left with no choice, Dad decides to send me to Prodigium—otherwise known as Monster Academy—to train me on how to be a better monster.

When bodies turn up on campus, I’m the prime suspect (not that I can blame them. I’ll be pretty suspicious, too, if bodies drained of blood show up right after Dracula’s daughter arrives).

With the help of my mortal-nemesis Vin, Van Helsing’s son

Frankie, Frankenstein’s son

Mason, Medusa’s son

And Jack (sometimes Hux), Dr. Jekyll’s son

I might have a chance of uncovering the truth.

If I’m not murdered first.

The struggles of being a vampire, am I right?

This is a horror comedy reverse harem with some dark elements. After all, you can’t have a bunch of monsters without some darkness. This is book one of a series.

Monsters 👻

well, I have to admit this book was fun, I just love every bit of it. I couldn't stop listening to it, its adventurers. the main character can be a goofball, but she is fun. and the boys are a variety of all kinds of weird but you can't help but love them all. you guys are going to love this book.

All the monsters

This book has all the monsters. The academy for Monsters has its dark and dirty secrets. Violet doesn’t want to go but her dad Dracula thinks that she needs to learn to be a monster. The story line is fun. They mess up phrases and talk a lot about chopping off things. It’s a funny read and I have to say I didn’t see the end coming.

Narrators are amazing. They put so much effort into giving each character there own personality and voice.

Great Narration

This is one of my favorite Katie May stories so I was excited for the audible version- not disappointed! Both narrators did an excellent job bringing each character to life and I really loved the duet style.

Fun

This is a fun, lighthearted take on monsters. Great humor, great plot, great characters. Obviously, these characters are in school; so, the reader should expect them to be immature. Amazing narrators! There is very little spice in the first book in this series, and this series a fun fast read. The books in this series are not stand-alones, but the whole series is out. The spice does increase and the plot thread does decline later in the series.

Awesome!

I read the series on Kindle before I purchased this one on Audible and I'm so glad I did! I love the narrators, especially how the male narrator changes accents between the MMCs; it makes it so awesome to listen to and easier to follow along.

Constantly laughing

The humor was great. Wasn’t sure what I was getting when I started this listen. I enjoyed it. Slow burn though so I’m expecting the spice to start showing up in the next book or two.

Action and laughs

I loved this book, fast paced, laugh out loud funny and a very good and unique plot.

Expected more

Parts if the story are really good. other parts, I'm not sure what the neck is going. not sure the plot holds up and so many mates and NO sexy, steamy romance. hopefully, book two will have more story. the narration is the only thing that held out throughout the book.

Enjoyable

An interesting school. I like it. The characters are definitely interesting and some are quite fun. I look forward to book 2.

Best series!

I love this series and sooo happy Katie decided to put it on audio. Jake and Bridget did an amazing job with the voices and I can’t wait for the rest of the series to be put on audio as well. Violet cracks me up with her inner diologue and clumsy demeanor both internally and verbally. I already know how the story goes so I know she will grow through the series and I love seeing her character grow and develop to more badass than clumsy blonde.
