Lord of Misrule

Morganville Vampires, Book 5

By: Rachel Caine

Narrated by: Cynthia Holloway

In the college town of Morganville, vampires and humans have coexisted in bloodless harmony until the arrival of Bishop, a master vampire who threatens to put the evil back in evil undead and smash the fragile peace. But Bishop isn't the only threat.

Violent black clouds promise a storm of devastating proportions. As student Claire Danvers and her friends prepare to defend Morganville against the elements---both natural and unnatural---the unexpected happens: Morganville's vampires begin to vanish one by one. Discovering why leads Claire to one last choice: Swear allegiance to Bishop...or die.

pretty good

except, again in this book, Shane was stabbed. when we all know he was shot. whatever. i just don’t know what to think about it … other than, it’s disappointing, Ms Caine. very disappointing …

so much better than any vampire series out there.

I'm 49 years old and find most vampire series very tween oriented... but I'm hooked. Can't wait to find out what happens next!!

Good story

I enjoyed this story. Morganville is basically at war with itself. Good thing they have Clair.

Fairly clean. There’s a few bad words and some heavy make out sessions.

Solid sequel...

I am enjoying this series! This is BOOK FIVE in the series; Audible does not currently have books 2-4, so I read them (paperbacks), before downloading this one. This is a very solid sequel and great continuation of the story - as I finished each book in the series, I couldn't wait to go on and find out what would happen next. These are listed as YA, and they are, but I am mid-30's and have enjoyed the plot and story very much. :) If you like vampire stories, give Glass House a try!

Book 5: Lord of Misrule

Morganville, home to Texas Prairie University, is a place where vampires and humans have coexisted within rules set forth by its founder.

That all changes when Bishop comes into town. He is a master manipulative ancient vampire. His goal is to conquer and destroy.

And, if that wasn't enough, tornadoes land and tear apart the town too.

Sixteen-year-old Claire Danvers along with her housemates, Eve, Shane, and newly turned vampire Michael, take up arms to defend Morganville.

During the chaos, the vampires begin to take off as in a trance. In the end, even Claire's mind is hijacked.

Cynthia Holloway does a great job in narrating. She brings the book to life.
