🎧 Chilling Reflections by Drew Hayes @drewhayesnovels.bsky.social @landon_amy @tantoraudio.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks @audiobookmel.bsky.social @DrewHayesNovels @AudiobookMel @TantorAudio

I absolutely love the Villains’ Code series, and Chilling Reflections was another fantastic installment. One of my favorite things about this series is how well Drew Hayes balances the heroes (the “capes”) and the villains. They’re technically enemies, but time and again they find themselves forced to work together against bigger threats. That tension, and […]

🎧 Villains’ Vignettes Volume I by Drew Hayes @DrewHayesNovels @landon_amy @TantorAudio #LoveAudiobooks @AudiobookMel

This is a collection of novellas from the Drew Hayes world of Villain’s Code. A Night in Hallowville I’m a huge fan of Halloween stories. Halloween episodes of TV are almost always my favorite. This story is about a small town that is taken over by Spooky Trudie. Every September 30th at midnight, Spooky Trudie […]

🎧 Posthumous Education by Drew Hayes @DrewHayesNovels @KirbyHeyborne @TantorAudio @AudiobookMel #LoveAudiobooks

It is great to be back in the world of Fred and the gang. I so love this series, with a vampire accountant and all his wide range of supernatural friends (and enemies). In Posthumous Education, Fred is being called upon to return his favor owed to the Winter Fae Queen. It is so easy; […]

🎧 Bones of the Past by Drew Hayes @DrewHayesNovels @landon_amy @TantorAudio #LoveAudiobooks

I loved Forging Hephaestus, the first book in the Villains’ Code series. I was introduced to a world where I followed villains going through training to join the Villains’ Guild. I was also able to watch as others went through superhero training. It was a long story at 27 hours, but I was lost into […]

Audio: Undeading Bells by Drew Hayes @DrewHayesNovels @KirbyHeyborne @TantorAudio #LoveAudiobooks #JIAM

The Fred stories are told from a first person point of view as Fred writes down the story of his life. Nothing is ever easy when Fred and the gang are involved and even something, like Fred and Krystal’s wedding, is no different. Somewhere Old The story start with Fred and Krystal going to Boarback […]

Audio: Deadly Assessments by Drew Hayes @DrewHayesNovels @KirbyHeyborne @TantorAudio

I started by getting audios from the Fred, The Vampire Accountant series at the library. Once I was current, I requested them for audio review. It’s a slow burn with Fred’s tales. They start so straightforward and then everything goes to hell. Deadly Assessments was quite suspenseful. The story was very focused on Fred, his vampire training, […]

Audio: The Fangs of Freelance by Drew Hayes @DrewHayesNovels @KirbyHeyborne @TantorAudio

Melanie has been listening to these and I just had to try them. Fortunately, I was able to get the three previous audiobooks in the Fred, The Vampire Accountant series at the library. I wasn’t completely sure about them after the first book, The Utterly Uninteresting and Unadventurous Tales of Fred, The Vampire Accountant. But as […]
