About this listen

The first book in the highly anticipated Elemental World series, by Elizabeth Hunter, author of the best-selling Elemental Mysteries.

In a world teetering on the edge of change, two beings struggle to find their purpose. Will their paths lead them closer together or tear their worlds apart? For a thousand years, powerful earth vampire Carwyn ap Bryn has served others. God. His family. His friends. But tragedy and loss disrupt his peaceful existence, causing him to question everything he has committed his eternity to.

Brigid Connor has known about vampires since they rescued her from a painful childhood. But not even their vast elemental power can save her from the demons that torment her. As loyalties are tested and new paths are forged, a lurking danger slowly grows in the Elemental World. Carwyn and Brigid learn that even secrets revealed can come back to haunt you when you least expect it.

Very well read! Good to know how to pronounce some of the characters names. Having read all the EW Books, I found these a lovely accompaniment to my mundane tasks, making my day speed by.

Excellent

I've read all the books in the Elemental series and enjoy them all. Unfortunately listening to them is a disappointment. The reader cannot do accents and these books require someone who can do Irish and Welsh, not some mangled upper class English. She has a pleasant American voice.

Enjoyable addition to series

I do not enjoy the love stories of the Vampire Genre.

I downloaded on a whim as on offer, have enjoyed and will 'read' the second part.

The modern setting of Dublin drug scene with an engaging plot dragged me in and got me through the emotional love descriptions which I am sure will be appreciated by Vamp fans, but not me.

I found the narration excellent and really liked hearing the Irish accents.

So engaging plot and characters, even for non vamp fans.

I guess this is a book that will appeal more to the ladies than the men!
There are constant references to the love that exists between the main protagonists and they're developing relationship.
I don't mind a little bit of this kind of thing and it exists in most books one way or another, but I found the sheer amount of it tedious and I found myself fast forwarding past many minutes of audio.
Thing aside the emotional stuff, I have to omit that I found this story just a little bit boring and I couldn't wait for it to finish.

Sorry, but this is not a book I can recommend.

A vampire love story!
