About this listen
Award-winning author Anna Burke delivers the shivers in this daring queer dark fantasy romance that is teeming with sensuous vampires, dark academia, plant horrors, and terrifying fungal fae.
When Clara Eden is offered a job as an archivist working for eccentric estate owner Agatha Montague, she thinks her prayers have been answered. Soon, she finds herself sucked into the world of her research, captivated by a romantic correspondence thousands of years old. But as her feelings for her employer's assistant, Fiadh, deepen, so too does her suspicion that something about Agatha Montague isn't quite right. Unfortunately for Clara, by the time her suspicions are confirmed, it is far too late to run.
Contains mature themes.

Captain of the famed pirate ship, the Wicked Fate, Maria is every bit as treacherous and bloodthirsty as they say.

As I board The Ruined Soul, I can't be sure if I'm a passenger or a captive, but as the tides grow more dangerous, I begin to suspect there's more to the cold-hearted captain than meets the eye. And my magic just might be the thing to help her thaw out.

Story
Poppy had always loved the night, so it wasn't too much of a bother to wake one evening in an unfamiliar home far from London, weak and confused and plagued with a terrible thirst for blood, to learn that she could no longer step out into the day. And while vampirism presented several disadvantages, it more than made up for those in its benefits: immortality, a body that could run at speed for hours without tiring, the thrill of becoming a predator, the thing that pulls rabbits from bushes and tears through their fur and flesh with the sharp point of a white fang.

You'll have to listen for context, but I about died.
This is a great story, great character development, good pacing, a few places I got a bit annoyed with the main character, but I think even the things that annoyed me about her worked really well for her character. Getting to know characters through different contexts was really interesting.
Single POV, satisfying ending, and solid lead in for book two which I'm going to download asap.
If you have no tolerance for extreme nerdery, this might not be for you. but you are of the fellowship of nerds, this will be in your top fav vampire books.
The nerdiest thing I've read in ages.

A riveting dark fantasy novel with equally captivating narration

The narration in the audiobook is excellent, bringing the letters that span hundreds of years to life with vivid and engaging delivery. Listening to these letters added a rich, historical layer to the story, enhancing the overall experience.
One of the standout aspects of this book is its seamless blend of genres. The transition from Greek mythology to vampire lore is handled masterfully, creating a unique and enchanting narrative. The single POV of Clara keeps the story focused and allows readers to deeply connect with her journey and discoveries.
Clara's job opportunity offers her access to invaluable knowledge about Nektopolis, but it comes with the catch of not being able to publish her findings. This twist adds intrigue and tension, especially as Clara's feelings for Fiadh, her employer's assistant, deepen. The growing suspicion about Agatha Montague adds a layer of suspense that keeps readers on the edge of their seats.
Anna Burke's writing is captivating and immersive, drawing readers into a world filled with diverse and well-developed characters. The plot is engaging, and I was thoroughly invested in Clara's adventure. My one suggestion is to take the time to read the footnotes throughout the story—they add valuable context and enhance the reading experience.
In the Roses of Pieria is a highly recommended read for anyone who loves fantasy, mythology, and romance. I can't wait for the sequel!
Great Audio Adventure!
