Started off strong, really didn't bring it all together satisfyingly, but great voice acting throughout. This audio drama raised a lot of interesting conflicts and questions and created interesting characters in the first third, then waffled about confusingly and with some weird character choices for a while, and then ended incredibly abruptly in a way that left me unsatisfied. I really liked the characters, and loved the early character work and the setting up of the world, and I thought it was a really interesting take both on vampires and a post-apocalyptic world, but I don't think it answered the questions it raised well. The ending seems crying out for a sequel, though, and I would absolutely listen to a sequel if it appears; I just really liked the characters, and would happily spend more time with them. Probably more like a 2.75 in reality, but I'm adding on a bit for the really good voice acting and general high quality of the sound design/engineering.
I really liked this. 4.5 stars. Very different than a regular audiobook, even different than a full-cast audiobook with sound effects (I'm thinking [b:Illuminae|23395680|Illuminae (The Illuminae Files, #1)|Amie Kaufman|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1443433956l/23395680._SY75_.jpg|26653661]). This was MADE directly for audio, and they just have a different feel. This definitely had "chapters" or "episodes" with music that would crescendo ... easy to imagine it as a TV series and the credits running at that point. It was a little TOO much, overpowering really.
I adored the British accents, I recognized Liam Cunningham (from GOT) immediately. So it's a post-apocalyptic world, almost destroyed by a comet. And then if that wasn't enough ... then there is vampires. The "clickity" sound effects in the background whenever vamps were near was good.
The image on the cover, and the one aspect of the storyline reminded me of [b:The Immortal Rules|10215349|The Immortal Rules (Blood of Eden, #1)|Julie Kagawa|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1323357921l/10215349._SY75_.jpg|15114912], which I also enjoyed.
While I did absolutely enjoy this, I'm purposefully looking for a BOOK, not an audioplay, for my next read.
