Publisher's Summary

From the Sunday Times Number One bestselling author of A Discovery of Witches, now a major Sky TV series, a novel about what it takes to become a vampire.

From human to vampire ...

Marcus Whitmore was made a vampire in the eighteenth century. Over two hundred years later, he finds himself in love with Phoebe Taylor, a human who decides to become a vampire herself.

But her transformation will prove as challenging now as it was for Marcus when he first encountered Matthew de Clermont, his sire.

While Phoebe is secreted away, Marcus relives his own journey from the battlefields of the American Revolutionary War, through the treachery of the French Revolution to a bloody finale in New Orleans. His belief in liberty, equality and brotherhood challenged at every stage by the patriarchy of the de Clermonts.

What will he and Phoebe discover in one another when they are finally reunited at Les Revenants, beneath the watchful gaze of Matthew and his wife, Diana Bishop?

Sunday Times Number One bestselling author Deborah Harkness returns to the spellbinding world she created in A Discovery of Witches and, through the prism of an unconventional love story, explores the power of tradition and the endless possibilities for change.

Critic Reviews

What a rich, thrilling and educational tale it is... A captivating and romantic ripping yarn (E L James)
This is a glorious, finely-wrought gem of a book: intelligent, thoughtful, intricate... I could lose myself in here and never want to come out: what better accolade can there be? ...Utterly enchanting on every level (Manda Scott)

loved it

It was a nice story of Marcus and Phoebe and the transformation into vampire by two different eras in time. I liked that I got more back story from Marcus and his ideals and I was happy that we got a look in to Matthew and Diana story a little bit more too.

Amazing story and fantastic narration

Deborah Harkness has a talent like no other. She is able to weave together stories of the fantastic and historic in a way that not only brings the past to life, but leaves ones searching for more and questioning whether vampires, witches and daemons might just live amongst us. Throughout, she captures universal themes with startling clarity. Every read is a joy and a new experience.

Saskia's narration was superb. She brought each character to life and added something I cannot quite name to the story. Her timing and accents were spot on, and though I loved the previous narrator of Deborah Harkness's books, Saskia has brought her own brand of magic to this fantastic performance.

Highly recommended!

Nice addition

Very glad I listened to this. Has a really great way of opening up the world further from the vampires perspectives while continuing on with Diana and Mathew raising their children.

It is annoying that the voice actor is different but these things happen. It's not worth missing the book over it, you get used to the different voices. Yes they Say Marth instead of Mart and a few other minor pronunciation issues but it happens, I've listened to a 6 book series that had 5 different readers.

Also the TV show says Marth too so maybe the first ready said them wrong, idk but still a very worth while story and I loved the whole collection 💙💜💚
