I am in love with this vampire series. This isn't your regular vamp hunting book. The more you kill, more more you turn into them in some ways. This book kept me glued to my tablet! Sam made a big change in this book, I didn't see it coming. Like the others, it has fast action with a faster pace. Great plot, well developed characters show more that I have come to love. A new and over interesting characters is introduced that is very unique! Wow! So creative and never dull! Kin love the writing flow, dialogue and interaction between the characters...that's what makes this special too.
The narrator is fantastic! The feelings, voices, the characters, all are always spot on! Great performance from start to finish! show less

Hard Times
A Sam Harlan Novel, Book 2

This is book 2 in the series and it has spoilers so it is best if you listen/read book one first.
I really, really enjoyed this book! It is so unique and fresh for a vampire hunter book. The way he gets his strength and who is partner is...a Sister of the Church! How they kill the vampires is a bit different too. The weapons they use, silver bullets show more but the Sister uses her Cross a bit different! I like to find fresh and different stories and that is hard to do in a genre that is saturated. This also has great characters, wonderful dialogue, twisting plot, and heart stopping moments. My kind of vampire book.
The narrator was absolutely perfect for this book. A voice with a touch of gruff for the touch guy but it disappeared when he was using it for the many women he had to speak for. Also an elderly woman. He had to speak in a accent and it was very believable. I never stopped to think if it was an elderly woman, I believed it and continued with the story. Great actor. Wonderful story all the way around.
I would recommend this book to all fantasy fans, especially vampire fans. Start with book one, don't cheat yourself! Can't wait for the next book. show less

Near Dark
By Kevin Lee Swaim
This is book 5, the last book in the series. I sure will miss it! I have loved the great characters, adventures, and thrills the books have taking me on.
This book was just as good and ended very satisfying. I was wondering how the author was going to manage several points but he did it in a wonderful fashion. Great job!

I love this series! If you haven't read any of the other books you could probably read this and not get lost, the author catches you up but there might be spoilers.
This has vampires, witches, magic, suspense, terror, and lots of action! The characters are well developed and I love Sam, even if he is turning into a vampire, and his sister-in-law that is a nun. show more His writing draws you in and makes you feel like you are there, fighting along side him, and boy is that terrifying! Love this series so much!
The narrator is terrific! Clear voice and performs the voices perfectly. Keeps the mood and emotions flowing with the story! Wonderful! show less
