About this listen

New York Times best-selling author MaryJanice Davidson is back. So is Betsy Taylor, "everyone's favorite vampire queen" (Bitten by Books), and this time Betsy's going viral.

If Betsy Taylor has learned anything about ruling hell, it's: 1) she can't do it alone, and 2) she doesn't have to. She's got the help of a devoted vampire king, a dateless zombie, an exhausted new mom, an unshowered cop, a bitchy ghost, a kindly dead priest, and her late stepmother ("go Team Satan!"). But the latest major hurdle in her postdead life is so big she can't even see it until it's on CNN. Betsy's father and half sister Laura (a former Antichrist with a grudge) have outed Betsy to the world. It doesn't take long for the story to become 24/7 headline news. What's more, people are not only prepared to believe in vampires; they want to kill them.

For Betsy, social media has never felt so unsocial. Before long the mansion on Summit Avenue is swarming with reporters, would-be vampire/zombie killers, and desperate emos begging to be turned. Betsy has been forced into the unenviable role of the reluctant face of the vampire nation. All she knows is she has to look good - this is hi-def! - and stay true to who she is.

The last couple of Betsy books made me want to hurl them out the window and give up on the series altogether. This book was sweet redemption. Thank god... Sorry Tina (inside book joke) super funny super witty fell in love with Betsy all over again... Wish there'd make this a series HBO anyone... But they'd screw it up like they did true blood... Overall a success

Full disclosure: I just love MaryJanice Davidson’s books- all of them! Nancy Wu is the perfect narrator. She does a great job: her voice sounds just like I imagined Queen Betsy’s, her speech is clear and easy to hear, and each character had a different voice. Nancy Wu is very gift

Excellent audio book

The large number of footnotes are indicating previous books but there are so many it starts feeling like an advertisement or just an audiobook that keeps getting interrupted. I’m not sure whether an endnote would work better— but it just really starts mucking with the flow of the book. I know there are a lot of books before this one but maybe just a note in the beginning stating there are several books before this etc, like some series do.

Other than that— and maybe the footnotes are impossible to get rid of because one does need to refer back if you haven’t followed in order

Overall great but a lot of footnotes...

Love all of her Betsy books! The narration is wonderful! Wish for more but happy with what there is.

This book 14 is back in the groove. It starts off a little rambling, but by midway through the novel finds its groove. I don't want to give anything away, but lots of good stuff happens in the last half of the book where you have to say -- finally Betsy has arrived. For the 14th in the series, Davison has done an excellent job of keeping Betsy interesting and growing, this is as much as a ditsy vampire "trope" can. Trope is Davison's latest cool word and she used it a bunch of times in this novel -- she must be reading the theory of writing or something.

Anyway, trope or not, this is a very nice next installment. I am looking forward to the next one. I wonder where she is going to go from here. As you surmise, I recommend Undead and Unforgiven. Listen on!

Ambling at first, but back in the groove

I think you’ll all know who I’m talking about, but it gets better. As per usual I love the characters MJ Davidson has created and I think Nancy Wu is just about the best narrator ever. Although there are two others I like, B.J. Harrison and Amanda Ronconi, but overall Nancy Wu gives a reliably enjoyable performance every time. I think the saddest part, as I move onto the next Undead book is that I’ll actually reach the end of the characters stories.

That vile b!+(h!

Great writing but sometimes the author gets really hung up on certain concepts like raping Sinclair I’d say since he was after her first it was more like seduction.
And Nick or Dick that wasn’t brain rape it may not have been right but that’s awfully harsh. They erased some memories but really there are some issues there. Then the cat disgusting and on and on. Laura OMG awfully Godly for the Antichrist did the author get born again while writing about vampires. I mean it’s all really funny and I do like the books. However there just are a few points were she goes over board.
Ok also I agree with another reviewer enough with the footnotes. Not funny.
Good sex scenes. I love Jessica. I love the crazy babies. I will probably listen to these books again in the future. I just put my pet peeves about the books first because it bothered me that much.
With some caution to cat lovers and those sensitive to animals there is a Zombie he doesn’t eat brains but he does dissect nothing is as gross as the complete description of cat guts. Also these books have sex scenes and are meant for adults. The story would be fun for young adults but discretion should be used.
These books are funny and worth the listen!
