By: Robert McCammon

For Lawson, the horrors that stalked the Civil War battlefield at Shiloh were more than just those of war. After being forcibly given the gift of undeath by the mysterious vampire Queen LaRouge, Lawson chose to cling to what remained of his humanity and fought his way free of the Dark Society's clutches. In the decades since, he has roamed late 19th-century America, doing what good he can as he travels by night, combating evils mundane and supernatural, and always seeking the key to regaining a mortal life.

That key lies with his maker, and now Lawson hopes to find LaRouge at the heart of a Louisiana swamp with the aid of a haunted priest and an unexpected ally. In the tornado-wracked ghost town of Nocturne, Lawson must face down monstrous enemies, the rising sun, and his own nature. Listeners will not want to miss this thrilling new dark novella from a master storyteller.

overwrought

Too many voices and distracting sound effects, gave me a headache but love Robert McCammon,

Ruined by Narration

I got about half way through this story but chose not to continue. The story itself was interesting and I would like to finish it some day but I will have to read the actual book. The narrator of the book uses an overly dramatic faux southern accent that I just can't stand. Unfortunately, most of the story is told through the narrator so the bad accent is not easily overlooked.

Great short story

Love this series, hope he puts out a third story. GA does a great job as always.

McCammon Goes Post-Civil War Vampire

I have always enjoyed Robert McCammon's passion for history, from a "Wolf's Hour" to the Matthew Corbett universe. And I am intrigued about Trevor Lawson in the late 1880's. Lawson is a transforming vampire who desperately wants to remain a human. The only way, to confront the vampire that turned him on a Civil War battlefield.

The interactive audio was impressive with so many in cast. I would love to hear more and learn more about Trevor Lawson and whether he ever reunites with his wife and daughter.

Good Story, terrible narrator

I'm a fan of Graphic Audio. The full cast works well normally. Unfortunately, the narrator puts on a horribly affected Southern accent which ruins this particular production. The rest of the cast was fine, but not enough to overcome narrative portions.
