About this listen

A novel of vampires, werewolves and sorcerers, Lightfall is the stunning debut epic fantasy by Ed Crocker, for fans of Jay Kristoff’s Empire of the Vampire and Richard Swan’s The Justice of Kings

For centuries, vampires freely roamed the land until the Grays came out of nowhere, wiping out half the population in a night. The survivors fled to the last vampire city of First Light, where the rules are simple. If you’re poor, you drink weak blood. If you’re nobility, you get the good stuff. And you can never, ever leave.

Palace maid Sam has had enough of these rules, and she’s definitely had enough of cleaning the bedpans of the lords who enforce them. When the son of the city’s ruler is murdered and she finds the only clue to his death, she seizes the chance to blackmail her way into a better class and better blood. She falls in with the Leeches, a group of rebel maids who rein in the worst of the Lords. Soon she’s in league with a sorcerer whose deductive skills make up for his lack of magic, a deadly werewolf assassin and a countess who knows a city’s worth of secrets.

There’s just one problem. What began as a murder investigation has uncovered a vast conspiracy by the ruling elite, and now Sam must find the truth before she becomes another victim. If she can avoid getting murdered, she might just live forever.

A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

Critic reviews

"The worldbuilding is classic paranormal fantasy, but the many players and complex politics lend this an epic fantasy feel. Crocker shows plenty of promise."Publisher's Weekly

"Debut author Crocker creates a world full of mysterious lore in this paranormal fantasy series starter. Witty and surprisingly philosophical, Lightfall will have readers eagerly anticipating the second installment."Booklist

"Lightfall is a darkly delightful subversion of the vampire tale, in which the supernatural takes centre stage rather than hiding in the shadows. Read this if you crave tons of whip-smart snarky banter set against a brooding, blood-drenched world."—Sunyi Dean, International Bestselling Author of The Book Eaters
