About this listen

Some people are born boring. Some live boring. Some even die boring. Fred managed to do all three, and when he woke up as a vampire, he did so as a boring one.

Timid, socially awkward, and plagued by self-esteem issues, Fred has never been the adventurous sort. One fateful night - different from the night he died, which was more inconvenient than fateful - Fred reconnects with an old friend at his high school reunion. This rekindled relationship sets off a chain of events thrusting him right into the chaos of the parahuman world: a world with chipper zombies, truck driver wereponies, maniacal necromancers, ancient dragons, and now one undead accountant trying his best to "survive". Because even after it's over, life can still be a downright bloody mess.

The narrators voice captures the personality of this charicter perfectly. Slightly anoying, but growing on you with this self depreciative and ludicrously humerous tail that draws you in page by... Well ok whatever...
The charter development was wonderful. The plot reminiscent of old school cliffhanger 80s tv series with out the baggage of pridctibility. The twists in every chapter made this a fun ride. I could listen to this again easily. Violent, awkward, fantisafull and good chuckel.

F@#&1ng Delightfull.

Excellent and entertaining, it’s a book that has a wholesome vibe to it despite some adult themes. Well written and enjoyable to listen repeatably, with the narrator doing an excellent job as the voice of Fred.

A delightfully different collection of short stories. Forget everything you think you know about Vampires and meet Fred. Once an accountant always an accountant.

I didn't expect to love it as much as I did. At first I though the narrators voice was a bit monotone but once the story started, I realised he was perfect for Fred. It was easily one of my favourite reads of the year so far!

Loved it!

Great series and well read. All it needs is more books in the series and it would be perfect.

Having prior 'read' NPC's by the same author I had high hopes going in and this did not fail those. The story is easy to pick up at any point in the series and is great right through. Portraying the main character, Fred is such a normal light while himself pointing out the obvious differnces feels fun and in good humour.

Vampire accountant need I say more?
