Resonant

Reign of Blood Prequel

By: Alexia Purdy

Narrated by: Anne Marie Susan Silvey

Surviving is worse than death....

As the first days of the end of humanity tumble across the city of Las Vegas in the form of an overwhelming viral infection, turning almost everyone into vampire-like creatures, April Tate will find out what it really means to survive. What does it take to make it out alive in a place where everything is but a withered echo of its former self and death does not come willingly?

Glad I've read the rest of the series...

Honestly, the first 2 or three chapters had me thinking "My God she's a brat!" However, since this is a short story AND a prequel, I kept listening... And I realized that April's reactions and attitude are actually very believable for how suddenly the outbreak occurs and how fast it moves.

I really enjoyed the narrator's voice and performance! She really put feeling into it, and her male voices were some of the best I've heard!

Nice short story with decent action, and it does actually add a bit of resonance (see what I did there?!) to the main character. I will now be listening to the original series, so that I can enjoy the story in a whole new way.

The back story

I am such a huge fan of this series so I was thrilled to get this to see how it all started. It was interesting to see April and Jeremy in their lives before the outbreak. Well done

I read this book before any others of the series.

This short prequel had me left with a lot of questions. It's a good story when you get into it. How did this virus begin? What happened to her dad? I'm hoping to get more back story in the first book. I am drawn into the story and look forward to reading more.

A must read!

You need to read this series! They are not your normal every day vampires! cant wait for book 4!

Great insight

Love this narrator.

Glad to see what happened in the beginning. How the world fell apart for April and he family.
