BLOOD BORN

Vanessa's Hart's throaty, sexy voice and well-paced delivery make her the perfect choice for this dark tale of vampires who are conspiring to conquer the human world by breaking a witch's curse. The story is packed with fascinating characters who are well portrayed by Hart, including powerful and hunky Luca Ambrus, a vampire born of two vampire parents ("blood born"), and plucky Chloe Fallon, his love interest and a "conduit"—a human who can channel a warrior from another dimension to fight the bloodsuckers. A gaggle of vamps and witches also entertains and provides fodder for several sequels. Fun, campy, full of clever dialogue and interesting lore, this listen delivers.
