Publisher's Summary

"Why do I have to have moral issues with killing someone? I feel like such a hypocrite! It's worse than a vegetarian touting organically grown steaks." (Eric, physics teacher, involuntary vampire, and part-time demon slayer)

Eric didn't ask to be a vampire. In fact he didn't even believe in them. Biting your own tongue with your fangs does a lot of convincing. Even so, being a part-time undead isn't as easy as you might think. It can let you hold down a day job, true, but sometimes the night "life" can be more than a little difficult, what with those bloodthirsty urges and predatory instincts kicking in. Luckily for Eric, he can rely on his trusty steed and her unwavering support, his flaming sword and its sarcastic wit, and his own snarky sense of humor.

Enjoyed it a lot, hated it a lot too

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The main character has no qualms with killing bystanders, random people who aren't bad but might have one archaic view on something, and is used as justification for their murder.He makes so many absolutely stupid decisions. Just monumentally dumb. And for what i can only assume is to add more plot devices. Spare a person who is consorting with greater demons to hunt him down and murder him, his friends, as well as kidnapping him and them. Leave him alone because he didn't do it PERSONALLY.Comes across a mage who for the last 100 years or so has been committing mass murder to lengthen her life through innocent peoples death. Changes her into an immortal creature with supreme powers. Sure that makes sense. Just to find the person he spared the day earlier. The writing wasn't too bad, i enjoyed a lot of the book. But there were so many resoundingly stupid moral dilemmas and choices made by the character that the author chose, i can only assume it was to add to the view of the main character being a just and moral person who only kills truly evil people. Unless they tried to kill him multiple times through their agents. Then he waits to be offender by said people personally, and goes on a killing spree catching many innocent bystanders in his 'righteous revenge'.Very 2 dimensional characters.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

If I could i would re write a lot of the book to seem more realistic. People aren't steadfast on morals that are only there to be seen as a good person.

Which character – as performed by Sean Runnette – was your favourite?

I guess the main character, i liked quite a bit of the story, he just makes a good amount of horrendous decisions for no reason, and spends a lot of time contemplating something small, and 1 minutes something that could change the world completely and absolutely for the worst.

Was Nightlord worth the listening time?

Yes and no.

Any additional comments?

I don't know if i want to listen to the other audio books, i can only assume the main character remains a damn idiot.

seriously give this a go, worth every penny.

genre : fantasy with a little science and a little comedy
with a big lick of swords and sorcery
out of ten : 8.5 to 9 /10
this is not a challenging book but it does have some adult content
it really is a whole lot of fun
and narrated by sean runnette who is frankly damn good at his job

Filler for days

Crap ending and so much filler in this book and a crap mc. Author likes writing words for the numbers and not to improve the story. Man the mc repeats the same things again and again like a broken record and never learns.

Enjoyed listening

I really the performance. Very easy to listen to. Quite enjoyed the story in the end but it was a bit slow getting started. Kind of just slowly gained direction.

An original vampire story

Twilight seemed to poison the vampire genre for awhile. writers have struggled to crawl from the sappy love story vampire skit. Thankfully nightlord puts a original twist on vampires. the story while not action packed keeps you interested and has it's charming moments. The story is rich in lore and its protagonist while over powered is charming. If your over watching the hero get his ass handed to him. before coming to the rescue this book should be the breather you need.

Intriguing if not beguiling

There's a really interesting and well thought out story here that moves along gradually and never lulls for long in things to see and do (and that's exceptional considering the length of this one). With its twists and turns it is also a lot less of what one would think from a vampire tale > there's no werewolf threat or covens to thwart here.

There is an analytical nature to the telling though in it's diary style that while different, adds some distance from what the characters are experiencing and makes it a little harder to really feel for their losses and victories.
