Love it!

This is my 2nd time listening to this series. It is so good! I read this book a few years back and finally listening to it again.

narrator doesn't match the story

the story is quite good and I hate to see the narration take away from the story. The plot is great I love the twists and turns. But her whispery voice does not give enough differentiation to the characters. Who all seem very laid back because of her narration. this book would be a great read 4 star.

Nice voice

British narrators for some reason can't hold my attention, no matter how much I'm enjoying the book. This one did. Her voice was nice.
I was thinking after the second time she fainted that she's a dainty little thing, but she's a cop. I've never read about vampire-bats, but it was interesting. I definitely want to read the rest of the series.

Vampire shift

I liked the book but hated the narrator. I won't purchase any more books with this narrator.

VAMPIRE SHIFT

THIS WAS AN INTRIGUING TALE OF A NOVICE COP SENT TO A SMALL TOWN TO INVESTIGATE MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCES OF HER PREDECESSORS AND SOME CITIZENS.I FOUND THE STORY CAPTIVATING AND INNOVATIVE.

Entertaining, but not a favorite.

If not for the frequent PLEEASE... entreaties and some singular stupidity attributed to the lead character, I would have given the story higher marks. Narrator fabulous.

LLLong start up. the ending was cool

What did you like best about Vampire Shift? What did you like least?

story line was good. but took to long time to get there. more than 3/4 of book is dragged out bla-bla. then we get to the good part and it is over. the end. the narrator dragged it out. I went for the kindle.

Would you recommend Vampire Shift to your friends? Why or why not?

no. they would put it down before the half way mark.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

the reading pace of her voice was so slow. like she was reading is cold.

Was Vampire Shift worth the listening time?

no, wish it was. the story line is good.

Any additional comments?

if I was given the 2nd book I would try it.

Nice Twist

It was pretty good.. wouldn't call it a romance though. Had a good story plot line and followed it well. I have a feeling the romance comes in play in the following series books ;)

Couldn't stop listening

I fell in love with the different take on Vampires in this book. Each author has a way of making the paranormal interesting, but adding the difference of another race that can cause the ailment was terrific.

Kieran Hudson has some really great abilities that are going to come into play later in the series.

I can't wait to listen to the rest.

New concept!

I love a classic scary vampire story. I love a classic vampire love story. This has both! A very cool new concept, fast paced and well written and narrated. I highly recommend!
