About this listen
IT’S HARD TO LIVE FOREVER WHEN EVERYONE WANTS YOU DEAD.
This omnibus contains the first FOUR books of the bestselling Tome of Bill urban fantasy series - over 30 hours of epic horror comedy.
Gamer, geek, and vampire – Bill Ryder was a normal guy who's now trying to survive in a world of abnormal horrors. Despite awesome powers and a Brooklyn-sized attitude, the odds are stacked heavily against him. Bill must fulfill his destiny and save the world from the ancient terrors threatening it – all while trying to build some semblance of a social life.
Includes:
BILL THE VAMPIRE (Book 1)
Bill Ryder was a dateless dork until he met a girl to die for. So he did. Now he's a vampire. Too bad he's still at the bottom of the food chain.
SCARY DEAD THINGS (Book 2)
One of the most powerful vampires on Earth wants Bill Ryder’s head. A pint-sized princess wants the rest of him. It’s not clear which fate is worse.
THE MOURNING WOODS (Book 3)
A war is brewing between the vampires and Sasquatch, ancient enemies since the dawn of time. If it can't be stopped, all of humanity's darkest nightmares will be unleashed.
HOLIER THAN THOU (Book 4)
On the eve of war, The Icon – prophesized destroyer of the vampire race – has arisen. There's just one small catch: Bill’s in love with her. Panic is about to break out within the ranks of the undead, and he’s caught smack dab in the middle of it.
Join Bill in these side-splitting tales of myths, monsters, and middle-fingered mayhem. If you enjoy The Dresden Files, The Nate Temple Series, or The Preternatural Chronicles then prepare to die laughing with this vampire comedy.
And don't forget to check out the Tome of Bill Series: Books 5-8 for more of Bill's adventures.

Story
My name’s Bill Ryder and five years ago I saved the world, banishing magic and monsters to the shadows. Not bad for a game programmer from New York. Anyway, I thought it was over, that I was done with all that supernatural crap. Too bad shit's about to get surreal again. Now the impossible has happened. My goddaughter is conjuring fireballs from thin air and two vampires have shown up at my doorstep looking to kick my ass.

Story
Rowan Sinclair has trained for a life in the shadows. As a member of the Guild, she's vowed to mercilessly hunt werewolves or die trying. But when one approaches her, claiming to know her missing father's fate, she decides to do the unthinkable - work with one of the very monsters she's sworn to destroy. Dean Mason is a man living with a curse, doing whatever he can to keep the beast inside from sating its bloodlust under the light of the full moon. When a chance meeting offers a tantalizing glimpse of a potential cure, he'll do anything to end the nightmare.

A man. His ex-girlfriend's cat. A sadistic game show unlike anything in the universe: a dungeon crawl where survival depends on killing your prey in the most entertaining way possible. In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth - from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds - collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot.

Eric didn't ask to be a vampire. In fact he didn't even believe in them. Biting your own tongue with your fangs does a lot of convincing. Even so, being a part-time undead isn't as easy as you might think. It can let you hold down a day job, true, but sometimes the night "life" can be more than a little difficult, what with those bloodthirsty urges and predatory instincts kicking in.

Now he's the Southeastern Regional Hunter for the Holy Roman Catholic Church...Bubba has to save the world from the things that go bump in the night! Just as soon as he's done with his beer.

Pete is a simple man who enjoys a good drink amongst good friends. Not too much to ask, right? Now, he's trapped in a fantasy world far from home, stuck underground and inside the body of a smelly dwarf with fantastic facial hair. The worst part? The swill that the dwarves are falling all over themselves to drink. It's flat, it's watery, and it has the alcohol content of a rancid coconut. Can Pete save the dwarves from their own sour fate, or will he be forever doomed to plink his pickaxe away in hopes that he hits the motherlode?

Story
Melvin Murphy is your average everyday teen... until he finds the System. Melvin has normal problems. High School. Tests. Trying to find a girlfriend (and failing... miserably). But one day he awakens with access to a System that governs all magic. In his attempt to summon a teacher to show him the ropes, he botches the ritual and accidentally summons a magic-wielding girl named Kalliphae. Sure, she's powerful and deadly. A femme fatale who's more intimidating than even the most popular girls at school.

Story
Sorry... Really? Thrust? Anyway, Danny Kendrick was a down-on-his luck performer who always struggled to find his place. He certainly never wanted to be a hero. He just hoped to earn a living doing what he loved. That all changes when he pisses off the wrong guy and gets sucked into a fantasy realm straight out of a Renaissance Fair. Getting used to a new world is tough. It's even tougher when you're surrounded by axe-wielding barbarians, super hot elf assassins, strange magic, and a jaded System that doesn't appear interested in being charged with yet another companion.

Story
James Crowley met his mortal end in a hail of gunfire. Now, he finds himself in purgatory, serving the White Throne to avoid falling to hell. Not quite undead, though not alive either, the best he can hope for is to work off his servitude and fade away. His not-so-sacred duty as a Hand of God? Use his new abilities to hunt down demonic beings that have infiltrated the mortal realm. This time, the White Throne has sent him to the middle of nowhere: a Western town called Dead Acre with a saloon, a moldy church, and little else worth talking about. There isn’t even a sheriff.

Dan has accidentally "Noclipped" into the Backrooms—a bizarro, extra-dimensional Alice-in-Wonderland world, overrun with horrific nightmare creatures known as the Dwellers. No one ever gets out. Hell, forget about leaving, if Dan wants to survive the week, he's going to need to harness the strange game-like magic of the Backrooms, make some very sketchy allies, and carve out a little safe haven to call his own.

If you like DCC, this has a similar feel. Snarky, darkly funny, and a good bit of 90’s nostalgia.

Disappointing
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Being a grown woman, I did not appreciate the fratboy immaturity & sexist tones of this book.
IMO, the writer has issues in crafting likable, realistic, adult characters and should have written the primaries as teens.
If you are older than 17 or a woman, don’t bother!
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
But before I do, let me share a bit about myself so you know where I’m coming from.
I’m 39. A dad of two sons. I am a heavy book reader. Heavy audiobook listener. I’ve taken some writing classes in college. I enjoy studying how stories are made. I especially love a good anti-hero. I love nerd culture. I love dark and edgy humor.
I thought this book would be perfect for me. It is the only audiobook I’ve ever given up on. I only got 10 hours into it—first trying to give the author a chance to make the book enjoyable. Then my effort to continue was based on a dare with myself. Then I only got another hour in because I realized I was in a self-loathing mood and was using this book to punish myself.
The main character is immensely unenjoyable.
This is Bill.
Bill is a collection of all things toxic about men.
Bill is a slacker and doesn’t care about contributing to society.
Bill is really horny and feels entitled to put his manhood inside a woman, regardless of how much she doesn’t want that. And the author really needs to hammer this one fact in.
Bill just wants to have a good time and play games. (Nothing wrong with that—as long as you contribute to society and don’t really, really want to pressure women into sex.)
All solutions so far in the book seem to be based on being an “alpha male.”
Bill likes to use homophobic slurs and ableist slurs.
He is a sincerely unenjoyable character.
And unfortunately, the writer can’t seem to write any other character but Bill into the book. Almost every character—I mean almost every character—acts and talks like Bill. Even the women act and sound like Bill.
The audiobook narrator makes this issue worse because he too has nearly only one character he can voice: Bill.
So when I’m listening to the book, I just imagine a world of Bills—and if it’s a woman, it’s just Bill wearing a wig and dress.
I get that Bill is a reluctant anti-hero character type. But the author forgot a factor needed to make a character like Bill enjoyable.
Anti-heroes need something redeemable about them.
A tragic backstory? Ten hours in, and nothing about why this character is a piece of trash.
Maybe a redemption arc? I doubt that’ll happen, for how “all is Bill and Bill is all” this book is. That would literally force an entire tone and story shift to something completely different.
Something worth defending? He doesn’t even have a pet. He just lives with two other Bills in an apartment. He doesn’t have a love interest—he just wants to wear the female Bills down until he can finally have sex with them.
A compelling mission to complete in the story? As far as I can tell, the story is mostly about having the biggest Bill vampire wiener and taking down other enemy Bills.
Without any of those, the character isn’t an anti-hero. He’s just a garbage human.
There is no one in this book I care about or want to succeed. The main character sucks. The supporting characters are Bill also, so they suck. And the antagonists are meant to suck, so I can’t root for them. But they’re also Bills, so they double suck.
The world is just modern-day California. So that’s not interesting at all—not enough to make me want to experience more of the book.
This book is monotonous. The word monotonous means it just has a single tone.
If this book were a song, it would include a one-note melody, on an instrument probably played with maximum testosterone and utilizing a penis (so the ladies can enjoy the meat display at live concerts). And the chords would just be the same note as the melody, just played on other instruments (played with maximum muscle flexing at the beta males so the ladies will definitely sleep with the band instead of the men who brought them). The song would last 40 hours, like this book.
And to keep with the spirit of the book, the song would be titled “Premature Ejaculation.”
I hope you found that funny, because I needed to demonstrate good dark edgy humor—which this book claims to have, but lacks.
It’s just uninspired.
Yes, Bill, I know you’re horny. I got it the first time. The twelfth time is really starting to wear me down—just like your strategy with the women.
Yes, Bill, I know you once sucked but now you have cool vampire powers and you’re amazed by it. You still suck, by the way. You just suck and have vampire powers. Please stop pointing this out to me.
Yes, Bill, you’re not gay. You’re not “retarded.” You’re not a “gay retard.” It seems like you’re overcompensating for how often you need to state this. And as someone who works with special needs children and cares about the LGBTQ+ community, I want to find the author and kick him in his penis. Which I’m sure is named Bill.
Good humor is complex and thoughtful. It has great timing. It builds up. The humor here is basically internet troll humor.
To put this in perspective, I have genuinely enjoyed reading a bottle of Suave shampoo ingredients label while I was stuck on the toilet without my phone more than this book. I’ve read the same label multiple times. I like how it says Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose on it. I’ve found the label enriching to my life—as much as it’s enriched my hair.
This book falls very short in comparison.
My last thoughts:
My college writing teacher always pressed on us to “write what you know.” Well, the author made it very apparent what he knows. I would expect this level of writing from a 15-year-old boy. The lack of insight and painful and ill-timed boners would explain so much about the writing quality. But it was written by an adult man with a wife and kids. Who I’m assuming will, at one point in the near future, be an “ex-wife and he will have visitation hours with the kids.”
I am baffled that the author managed to write eight books in this series, plus one with another author, and then spin off another series with Bill. How?
If this book series were an album, it would be 14 songs of the same note.
The album would be called “Date Rape.”
See, that is humorous writing.

Bill the vampire: I couldn't do it! I couldn't bite the man, not because I dont want to kill someone but because it would be gay to bite a man. I could if it was a hot chick though, no wait that would be a waste. I could bite a fat chick.
