About this listen

The Pacific Northwest is home to lush forests and constant rain, to lumberjacks and computer geeks, especially those of the vampire kind.

Sophia, beautiful and deadly, has spent the last 100 years dancing her way through the balmy nights and hot-blooded men of South America. But when her Sire sends an urgent summons, Sophia rushes home to Vancouver only to find he has disappeared, leaving nothing behind but three dead vampires and a letter with Sophia's name on it.

Colin Murphy, a former Navy SEAL, came to the Northwest seeking a quiet place to heal the scars earned in more than a decade at war. But when someone starts killing local vampires and torturing their mates, Colin takes on the mantle of a warrior once again as he sets out to find the killers and do whatever it takes to stop them, even if that means hunting with vampires.

Following her Sire's trail of death to a small town in northern Washington, Sophia unexpectedly discovers the heat of a South American night in Colin's arms. But too soon, Sophia and Colin find themselves in a race to uncover the killers before the next dead vampire becomes Sophia herself.

Finally FEMALE Vampire Lord!

Where does Sophia: Vampires In America (Volume 4) rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

In the Top 15

What did you like best about this story?

Sophia is the first female Vampire Lord. She has to claim her rightful spot in a world dominated by male vampires. She also has to claim her human who has reappeared in her very long life.

What does Traci Odom bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She has the range that makes differentiation between the characters awesome. She can keep the voices consistent.

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

Not really an extreme reaction. Just satisfaction. Sophia had to work pretty hard to get her man to forgive her. Lucky he loved her so much.

Female Vampire Queen

This was a well written story about a female Vampire who returns to her makers city in answer to his call. When she arrives, he is missing and she finds other Vampires that have been killed. A detective story issues where she needs to find out who is behind the whole drama. This is an ongoing story about a group of Vampires who are more powerful than others. The real power is Raphael who is the most powerful Vampire in the world. A love story is created between Sophia and an old flame. Good Story. I enjoyed listening. I received this Audio Boom from Audio Book Boom in exchange for an unbiased review.
Thanks!

Brining the South American Vampire Heat!

My advice....DOWNLOAD NOW! There is action, suspense, romance, and vampires...what else could one want from a great series! I liked this addition to the series and how they added new characters but you still get more of our Cyn and Raphael. This is a series and although you can get caught up quickly and don't feel like you would be missing too much I would still recommend reading/listening to the the other books first. I am interested to see what happens to Duncan since I love his character. The narrator does a great job with distinctive voices and pacing.

Phenomenal! I can't get enough of this series. I did receive this audiobook free for an honest review. That being said, this is worth the credit and this author and narrator have my future credits!!!

If you love vampires, don't miss this series!

First of all, I need to let you know that I was provided with a copy of this audiobook at no charge by the narrator in exchange for an unbiased review via Audiobook Boom.

Having said that, I should also tell you that I’ve purchased the prior three books in the "Vampires in America" series over the past year because they are just that good. I will try to be unbiased, but I only thought it fair to tell you that I went into this book thinking I would most likely enjoy it.

I hate spoilers in reviews, and I think the summary on the book page is sufficient, so I’m going to limit myself to what you really need to know. This book is not for you if you like your vampires weak and fluffy, or misogynistic and brutish. D.B. Reynolds’ vampires are all-Alpha: powerful, intelligent, beautiful, strong, possessive, and protective. However, unlike many supernatural heroes and heroines in other books I've listened to lately, these vamps are not egotistical. They're hell on their enemies but aren’t domineering with friends and lovers. They’re persuasive and seductive. They’re wily and cunning, but they don’t have to win every, single disagreement. They are also refreshingly unselfish in bed. It’s clear that when they say they love their lovers, they really mean it. And they are very, very good at it.

If you choose to try 'Sophia', I think you’ll find D.B.’s writing to be both intellectually and emotionally engaging. She sets a good pace, progressively developing both characters and plot. She also does a wonderful job of world-creating. The details she gives are pertinent, but not excessive. Some authors tend to be too light when giving details, while others’ scenes are so heavy that I sometimes feel like I’m slogging through, rather than joining the characters on a romantic adventure.

As far as narrators go, I tend to prefer romance read by men. I know this is not very enlightened of me, but it is true. There are a handful of female narrators who I will buy without hesitation, however, and Traci Odom is one. I like her performance here because her voice flows with D.B’s writing. She reads smoothly and steadily. But even more importantly, when she reads—even when she reads the guys’ lines and POV—I don’t hear a narrator. I only hear the characters. Forgetting she’s even there by the fourth or fifth paragraph, I slip right into the story.

I hope you try this book, and if you do, I truly hope you enjoy it. It’s not necessary for you to read or listen to the first 3 novels in this series ('Raphael', 'Jabril', and 'Rajmund'), but if you love this book, please go back and grab those as well. Many of the characters are re-occurring, and I think you will get even more out of this one when you listen to it again, once you’ve heard the back story.

Great story, narration so-so.

I very much enjoyed this fourth installment of the Vampires in America series.
I was not particularly impressed with the narrator. She gave several of the male characters fairly high-pitched voices, which did not fit the characters at all. Otherwise, she did a very reasonable job with the narration.

D.B. REYNOLDS "ROCKS HARD"

If you could sum up Sophia: Vampires In America (Volume 4) in three words, what would they be?

TIME TO HUNT

What did you like best about this story?

I LOVE THE THRILL OF THE STORY, THE MYSTERY, THE SUSPENSE, THE ADVENTURE, ETC.. HOWEVER....I COULD USE A "LESS" GRAPHIC SEX SCENES - MAYBE 1, MAX 2 AND THE REST COULD BE 'FADE TO BLACK" = 'PLEASE'!!!!

What does Traci Odom bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

TRACI BRINGS YOU INTO THE BOOK, SHE MAKES THE STORY 'REAL'

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

TIME TO HUNT

Any additional comments?

PLEASE - PLEASE - PLEASE TAP "DOWN" THE SEX SCENES - I THINK 1 OR 2 IS ENOUGH THE REST COULD BE "FADE TO BLACK" - IT'S THE STORY THAT KEEPS ME BUYING THE BOOKS - NOT THE GRAPHIC SEX!!!!

Another winner

Dramatic events in this book greatly effect other characters in the series like Raphael and Cyn. Like the strategic connections Raphael makes and his devotion to Cyn. Sophia was ballsy and met he match inColin. Hope to see them again too in other stories in the series.

Another gripping story

This book continues the story from the first three books. This is definitely a series that needs to be listened to in order, so don't start with this book.

This book continues t follow Cyn and Raphael as well as introducing Sophia and Colin. The story hits the ground running with plenty of twist and turns, and intrigue spotted through. There's a fair bit of focus on Sophia and Colin and there's a decent amount of their history both together and separately included in the story.

The narration is fantastic, the character voices are great with some excellent accents delivered consistently throughout the story. The delivery flows really nicely and keep a good pace. Traci does an excellent job of conveying emotion and I couldn't help but be drawn into the story by her delivery.

This book was supplied free by the author/narrator/publisher and I voluntarily wrote this honest review.

Another solid entry into this series

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I started this series with books 5, 6 and 7, and have now gone back to the beginning of the series to catch up. This is my final book in the series narrated by Traci Odom. So, be warned fellow listeners, there is a narrator change in the next book. Don't let that deter you from continuing the series, though. Nick J Russo is a great narrator and, once you get used to him, you'll continue to enjoy the series. Now I need to move on to book 8!
