About this listen

A truce between the living and the dead isn't enough to keep Claire Danvers out of danger in this third entry in the Morganville Vampires series.

Claire Danvers' college town may be run by vampires, but a truce between the living and the dead has made things relatively safe - for a while. Now people are turning up dead, a psycho is stalking Claire, and an ancient bloodsucker has proposed private mentoring.

Midnight Alley (Morganville Vampires, Book 3): The Morganville Vampires, Book III

Midnight Alley (Morganville Vampires, Book 3): The Morganville Vampires, Book III I just purchased the whole series when I was at the book store Saturday because I am hooked on the series after reading and listening to the 3 books, I would definitely recommend this book for all readers. There are "love" scenes described in the book , but it’s R rated.. Can’t wait to start book 4, and listen to it on my way to work in a few hours.

Don't do that! Again!

Where does Midnight Alley rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It's up in the top 100. Please remember I own over 600 audiobooks

Which character – as performed by Cynthia Holloway – was your favorite?

Even though Shane has to be my least fav. character she does him well

Any additional comments?

Well it's an over all good series, but if I have to say "Don't do that!" one more time I'm ripping my ears off.
Scene 1"Hey look! A dark scary room, let's not go in there!" Scene 2 Oh let's go in that room because we totally forgot what we said 3 minutes ago. Again!

Things that make me say AAAggghhh for 100 Alex.

Midnight Alley

I think these books are fun! I just want to make it clear to everyone that audible does have books 1-7 available and it is important to read them in order.

Cliffhanger

The first book and this third book are cliffhangers. I'm not a fan. The story itself, however, is fun, interesting, easy to read, and all together enjoyable. The writing is tight. The characters are well-developed and likeable. The world is interesting and carefully thought out. I recommend this book and this series with the caveat.... you can't stop once you start because the story isn't done. I find that exhausting and irritating, personally, and I wouldn't have started the series had I known.

Fascinating story

I really like that Claire is learning Alchemy. She’s learning some really cool stuff from Mernon.

The battle between human and vampire in this town is getting intense.

One thing I don’t like about these stories is the sexual activity between the main characters. They aren’t even trying to remain pure. They are only making out in this book, but the loose passion is unhealthy for them and their readers.

Good story, but abrupt unfinished ending

I've enjoyed this series so far, but was very surprised, then disappointed when this one ended, completely unresolved. I even checked to see if I'd forgotten to download the 2nd half - but that wasn't the case. I imagine it was meant to be a cliff hanger - but instead it just feels as though the book stops for no reason. Many authors can manage to write series where each book still has a complete story - and this was true for the first two books of the series - but not this one. If this is the pattern for future books in the series - they've lost me as a buyer.

Enjoyable listen.

Where does Midnight Alley rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The series is apparently well known, although I am somewhat new to it and only found it through another anthology. However, the character development is nice and the plot is creative.

What did you like best about this story?

The character interaction and development is enjoyable. Too often the characters in this genre are cliche and stereotypes, but Ms. Caine did an excellent job at making her characters as "real" as possible.

Have you listened to any of Cynthia Holloway’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Cynthia Holloway does a nice job with the character voices and her interpretation is very strong in this series.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

This series isn't War and Peace, but at its heart it is honest and the plot themes and characters could easily be removed from the vampire-genre and put into almost any situation. To me, that makes the books enjoyable and worth the listen.

Any additional comments?

My ratings may seem high, but they should be taken in the context of the genre. Ms. Caine avoids falling into gimmicks or cliches and, instead, takes a creative and thought provoking look into a possible alternative universe where vampires and humans interact in the context of a small Texas town.

I am falling for this town

Narrator: Great
Story: Fun, imaginative, exciting
Characters: Spunky and realistic

I am so falling for this town and even though the residents seem a bit more abrasive? than your usual suburban citizens i think you will agree that it makes for a great story.

Already listening to the next book. :)
