Blood Colony

By: Tananarive Due

Narrated by: Patricia Floyd

Best-selling author Tananarive Due's novels about a colony of immortals have won widespread acclaim, including an American Book Award for The Living Blood. The story continues in Blood Colony.

Said to cure almost any illness, the new street drug Glow has attained almost mythical status in America. The key ingredient in Glow is the Living Blood, which courses through the veins of 17-year-old Washington state resident Fana Wolde.

Distrustful of her parents and eager to share her healing powers via an elaborate underground network, Fana sets out on her own. But what she doesn't know is she's being hunted by a mysterious and homicidal group with ties to the Vatican.

Fair

This book was fair. It wasn't as good as the first two in the series, but not terrible.

Wow

I'm still reading the series, but so far I'm blown away. Mrs Due is an artistic genius. I can't wait to get to the next book.

Another Awesome book

Loved the book but disliked the naration. The first two books were narrated by Peter Francis James and he did an awesome job. Patricia Floyd did a poor job, in my estimation, and that is why I gave only two stars for performance and four stars for overall. Would rather have listen to Mr. James again.

Good story, bad narration

The entire Immortals collection is amazing, Ms Due is an amazing storyteller.

The narrator was just really bad - accents, inflections, fevers tone was all just a bit flat to me. If you can look past that, the story is a good part of the series.

Mrs. Due is a great writer!

I just finished the third book in the African Immortals series and Mrs. Due is such a fantastic writer. The characters were a little naive but that’s how ppl can be. I hope the last book explores Khaldune and his motives more.
