non-stop vampire action
Ever wondered what it would be like to live in a town ruled by vampires? For Clair Danvers and her friends, this is a grim reality. Morganville Texus is a town run by vampires, where any human not under the personal protection of a vampire is fair game. Life is a constant struggle to survive. Far from being a vampire romance, this book attempts to paint a portrait of life under vampire rule and Rachel Caine does a splendid job. With four excellent main characters, this book is compulsive reading and the saga is only just beginning.

Ruined by narrator
I love this series but this was absolutely destroyed by the narration. Emotionless, robotic, jarring and just annoying. Could only stand 10 minutes. Makes the voice sound like children instead of college kids. So disappointed as I love the story.

Massive fan
I’m a massive fan of the morganville series, I had them all in paper backs when they first was released so to see them on audible made my day. Although I wasn’t overly keen on the narrator but the story seems even more gripping being read to you!! I’m going for the second 💖

Greed Reins
This book is a very much meant for young adults and is not like her some of her other more adult orientated series eg the Weather Warden series.
To me some of characters were very immature at times and most of the vampires could be clones. They are not the Cullen's.
Still the book does hold some charm and should appeal to the younger audience or those who remember who the target audience is.
The story ends on a major, major cliffhanger so if you like books to at least tidy up most of the main plot threads be prepared to be disappointed
Aside form all that the narrator does a good job and the story has enough action to keep you involved if you can forgive the above points. which is why i gave it the rating i did because for the audience it is aimed for it hits most of the right buttons for that demographic
just recently Glass Houses: Morganville Vampires, Book 1 became a daily deal as i found out apparently now it has a different narrator it now not available in Australia. This has happened with other series and will not be the last time.
