Publisher's summary

A vampire prince fighting to liberate his people. A stunning photographer intrigued by the supernatural world. Together they must save their vampire kingdom...or die trying.

Sexy vampire Christopher Dal has spent centuries recruiting free-thinkers and dreamers to turn into vampires. When he meets Alice, Christopher knows she would be the perfect addition to his vampire family. But once he turns her, he will become her sire and any romance between them will be impossible...and he's already falling in love with her.

Alice Jones's dearest dream is to become a full-time photographer, leave her boring day job, and explore the world. But when she meets the handsome and mysterious Christopher at her first art show, she discovers that the world is more magical and perilous than she ever imagined. Just when immortality is within Alice's reach, a vampire civil war erupts between Christopher's followers and his power-hungry brother, Rhys. With the fate of vampire kind in Alice's hands, will she choose safety or love?

The Vampire Throne is an adult paranormal romance. If you like red-hot passion, blood-pumping drama, and satisfying love stories, then you'll love the first installment of the sizzling Royal Blood series.

never under-estimate a photographer

I did like the story...despite the length we had decent character development and a clear understanding of the vampire world. Nice steamy scenes, action with an HEA. Alice is a strong character...so strong she broke the compulsion (my favorite part)! But I have to say the narrator made her sound whiny and not in character...for this reason I did drop my rating for the narrator.

Vampires magical creatures and sex

I got this review copy via audiobook boom. The title of my review says it all. That is what the story was about. The narrator seemed to strain to get the male parts. If you want sex with a tiny story line this is for you.It has lots of explicit descriptions.

2 of the 3 hours were okay

I almost gave up on this one a few times. After an hour or so, It finally picked up a bit and I made it through. Although there's quite a bit of cheese, I ended up enjoying the story. The narration is a little over the top, a little too dramatic for my tastes, but it doesn't detract from the story. Overall, just okay, I don't think I will pick up the next in the series.

Great Vampire Romance

The story is interesting and keeps you hooked all the way to the conclusion. I enjoyed the characters and unique storyline.

The narrator did a fairly good job bringing the story to life.

This is a sweet paranormal romance with some steamy moments between the vampire prince and Alice. I enjoyed the HEA conclusion and what a great vampire Chris is. His brother in the other hand is horrible!

This is a great start to a new vampire series! I'm glad that it did not end in a cliffhanger. I'm looking forward to reading more books from this series.

Good Idea...

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

This is my first review of AJ Tipton’s work. To be honest, I’d like to listen to more because I don’t believe one book reflects an author’s talent. I was impressed with the story but not so much the characters. First there’s instant love. I like to see some chase and hesitation before undying devotion. Then there’s the centuries of unbroken sire bonds that Alice overcomes. The story develops smoothly into a war for power and all in all it’s an enjoyable listen.

Audrey Lusk isn’t one of my favorite narrators because she tends to over dramatize some of the voices. She always does an adequate job and it’s the same here. Nothing too irritating but not stellar, either.

👋 Waving Hand for a Good Try.

Keeps getting better.

I gave this book five stars because it was well written and worth the time to read. The story of romance during time of impending war between the good vampires and the bad was an excellent story and the plot had twists and turns that kept me reading page after page. I could not put this down. The romance between Christopher and Alice was incredibly strong and enduring. Alice had to fight for their love when Christopher thought he had no choice but to walk away from her because of the hortatory. She proved him wrong. An excellent read. I highly recommend this book. It will not disappoint.

A mixed experience

What do you do when you like a story but dislike the narration? Constantly wish you were reading instead of listening of course. That's what I did as I listened to this book.

The character voice for Alice made me cringe every time I heard it and she has a lot of dialogue, the other character voices weren't much better. At times Christopher came across as weak and melodramatic because of how his dialogue was delivered. The overall delivery was also problematic for me, I found the phrasing weird and it just wasn't pleasant to listen to.

If I'd paid for this book I'd return it and buy the eBook instead, because while the narration drove me up the wall, the story was quite good. I enjoyed the idea behind the story and the characters are interesting. It's nicely written and flows well.

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