This book has romance, passion, shape-shifters, a plot that carries you along with it and, of course, the good v evil guys. The narrator did a great job of the many accents needed.
If you love the vampire romance genre then you won't be disappointed and me, well I'll be waiting for Book 2!
A great new Series - don't miss it !!

What did you love best about Dark Awakening?
The book takes you into a class driven race of vampires. A social structure of the medieval times. It's this class system of vampires that draws into the story. But the opening scene does grab you up from the beginning.What was one of the most memorable moments of Dark Awakening?
Lilly standing up for and trying to save him.Which character – as performed by Peter Bradbury – was your favorite?
Lilly I enjoyed her strength, despite it all.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Remembering that this a romantic paranormal romance, enjoyed the way Ty and Lilly come together. Although it seemed to take a Ty a little longer.Any additional comments?
If you are looking for a little something different check out this book. I think it is worth a creditA Vampiric Awakening

Lily Quinn is believed to be a seer and the Ptolemy dynasty want her. Tynan can shift into cat form, so the Ptolemy consider him a lowblood and they send him to go and bring her back to them so they can use her physic gift to see who has been killing their people. When Tynan finds Lily, she is more than he expects and now he isn’t sure he wants to bring her in.
As the story goes, it just keeps building and building. There is such a mystery around Lily that other vampire clans start to take notice, now Lily and Tynan are running for their lives.
This was a great story and was like a whole box of Godiva Chocolates. It had a variety of different of different well rounded characters. It also had great character and world building. I really enjoyed the whole thing and cannot wait to read the next in the series.
The Narration Review
This audiobook was narrated by Pete Bradbury and I loved his voice! He had a really good story telling voice and a host of different voices and accents for all the characters. He definitely added to the enjoyment of this story. He was a pleasure to listen to!
A New Favorite Author!

I am sure I could not narrate better than Mr. Bradbury but I found that compared to other narrators, I was just waiting for the book to be over so I could pick a book with another narrator. I found the long pauses annoying. The hero seemed to have a never ending angry voice where some of the thing he said, I thought, shouldn't have been said with so much anger or annoyance. I also feel that typically a woman, in general, has more range to handle a woman's voice and man's voice quite nicely.
Good Story, ok Narrator

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
It was a decent amount of time well-spent. The story line was different from other vampire novels as it creates a spin in vampire society. Even immortality and strength is not imprevious to bigotry and casts systems.If you’ve listened to books by Kendra Leigh Castle before, how does this one compare?
This was my first Kendra Leigh Castle book, I am always ready for a good series to begin. I am looking forward to continuing with this one.Have you listened to any of Peter Bradbury’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No never heard Peter Bradbury's narration but he gave each character life which is good.If this book were a movie would you go see it?
I may depending on the actors seems like it would make a better TV series. Puts me in mind of V with a little Xena the Princess Warrior.Something new in vampire tales

As far as the narration, I thought that Mr Bradbury did a pretty good job. My only complaint is that he sometimes speaks too slow and I find myself getting irritated and thinking, “hurry up and get to the point!”
In my opinion, this book would have definitely been worth the price of a credit but, double bonus, it is included in the romance package so my monthly credit could be used on another book. Hit Download, I really think you won’t be disappointed.
