difficult

I love books that have to do with vampire werewolves anything that has to do with a shapeshifter. and even though this book is like 27 hours I just had a hard time finishing it. I like the storyline how evil is coming out and turning people into like dead zombies and taking their souls. I also would like that the vampires in defining there are soulmates who sacrifice for them. but I just felt like the book kept repeating itself I kind of turned out most of the time I just felt like the book was okay and it took me forever to finish this book. it really does have a great potential the narrator did an amazing job and changing her voice to all these characters and that's something I really did enjoy.
I felt these vampires were really weak. they could become owls or mist but they can't carry another human.... I really do want to listen to the last two books but I don't think I'm going to I just don't have time to tune out half of the story.

Having a TOUGH time getting through this.

The non stop panic of the woman is incredibly annoying. It's both written and performed like that. Just non stop terror and panic. Might DNF this. Trying to get through at least half.

I hate this narrator. I listed to her do another series and she's terrible. Overly dramatic and whiney. Makes her voice sounds like shes sobbing if something is even slightly emotional.

I think I would've liked this much more with a good narrator. It's a shame when a good book is performed by a bad narrator. Completely destroys it. What's more frustrating is that her voices for some characters are good. So she's choosing to perform the way she does. She's terrible. Wish they'd re-record with Robert Petkoff or Nicole Poole or anyone else.

A unique and action-packed paranormal romance.....

Circle of Blood is a six book series that is combined into two bundles. With over 50 hours of listening included, it is well worth the two credits required to purchase all six books. Although each book covers a different couple and could be read as a standalone, I would recommend listening to the entire series. The authors create an overall story arc that is developed further in each book, and the friendship between the original six characters grows stronger as each one finds and claims his/her fated mate.

Steffan and Woolf do an amazing job of world-building - adding just the right amount of detail without getting bogged down in minutia. They have a unique take on the vampire genre, including that they transform into owls and require the sacrifice of a loved one to turn into a vampire rather than a vombie. In each book, one of the original six vampires is reunited with the fated mate that sacrificed his/her self. This is a journey of not only falling deeply in love with the reincarnated mate, but also of accepting forgiveness and redemption. Combine all of these emotions and passions with an epic battle against evil, and you have a powerful, incredibly enjoyable read.

Gwendolyn Druyor does a superb job with the narration. Not only does she clearly differentiate between all the characters, she handles multiple international accents with ease. She flawlessly switches accents from Russian to French to British to Haitian to Oriental, all while infusing the right level of emotion for every scene. This is truly a performance that shouldn't be missed.

I received a copy of this audiobook at my request in exchange for this honest review.

Yeesh....

Am I the only one that struggled with this book? It was so unoriginal and the narration was a struggle. I am disappointed as I normally enjoy these types of series. I am not too picky, but this was rough. :(

Reincarnations..

This bundle centers around love, lost love, and reincarnations.

Overall, a well thought out story line with intriguing characters and

a love that surpasses everything.

I would be interested in more books relating to this bundle.

Gwendolyn Druyor did well with the narration.

The whole vampire thing is getting kind of old. It’s all been done before. Still the story was interesting. And I enjoyed the characters. Excellent narration was part of what kept my interest.
