About this listen

Mavis was my name, and you could say I have had a bit of a tough go. Following a tremendous personal loss, I was entombed by my own daughter rather than allow me to expose our secret to the world.

I woke up in a mausoleum and two centuries have passed. All I want to do is drink a bit of blood and maybe find a beautiful modern maiden to entertain what's left of my soul. However, sinister forces are ever at play in my world. Even a queen who is two centuries usurped cannot rest. Vampyrs are dying and the royals, including my only surviving child, are all in danger, as are the communities around us.

Set in modern New Orleans, this is the tale of the Lower Queen, Mavis Aubrey, the mysterious vampyr who once led most of Britannia. Come follow Mavis as she struggles to learn how to function in the post-modern world and the vast array of new challenges rising to greet her.

Contains mature themes.

Love this series

Love the banter! This series takes you thru a spectrum of emotions! The steamy scenes are a bonus too. Can’t wait for the rest of the series to come out.

A lol vampire story

This book was a fun listen. There’s action and comedy. There is romance blooming here but no spice. Can’t wait to see how it all unfolds in the next book.

Vampires and Werewolves and ICE ELVES Oh My!

I was skeptical at first, but after giving this audiobook a try I've fallen in love and had to dust off the Kindle to read ahead. If you like magical worlds, demigoddesses, wide assortment of creatures and monsters, overly descriptive lesbian passion, you've found your next series!

Could’ve used better editing

Author repeated several things over and over again. It was kind of annoying. Overall story and premise is very interesting though.

DNF at 65ish%

I tried. Interesting plot, decent writing.

Woakness, misandry, and virtue signaling abounds in this book. I just want to read/hear a good story, I don't need a lecture on how virtuous the author is disguised as a stupid book.

Could be better

Loved the story premise and characters, but too much unnecessary conversation. Repeat descriptors. Ended up skipping ahead a number of times to finish.

Voice actors performance ruins it for me

The story is pretty good but I couldn’t stand the voice actor. The performance leaves a lot to be desired. Couldn’t even get 1/3 of the way through.
Returned the audiobook and I purchased the digital book.
