Audiobook: Lies of Vampires and Slayers

Are you ready for a new audiobook?!? The first book in the Magic on Main Street series, The Lies of Vampires and Slayers, is now available for you to buy on Audible!

Click here to buy it now or listen to the sample!

This series is voiced by Amelia Hugh and Cody Roberts, and while I love all the narrators we've used these two did an amazing job bringing this book to life! In particular, the audio team was obsessed with how Cody voiced Considine - he sounds "like" Considine even when he is just reading the chapter numbers!

The two other books in this trilogy will be available soon(ish) so start saving your credits! You can expect to see book 2, The Games of Enemies in Allies, in mid-September and the third book, The Order of Blood and Ruin, at the end of September . Most of this time is waiting for the Audible review process and I can't do anything to hurry up that step but my team will do our best to keep you informed on Facebook/IG/Blog when each audiobook is published.

You can always check the Audiobook page on my website for the most up to date list of available audiobooks (my team updates this as soon as we know a book is released on Audible).

The Gate of Myth and Power audiobook series is continuing to have forward progress and I am hopeful book 1 will be out in time for Christmas.

Audiobook Updates

SheaCon is over and one of the updates I gave during my panel was all about audiobooks so now it's time to share the news with you!

Everyone has been patiently waiting for an update on the audiobooks for the latest two Magiford series and I finally have some information to share!

The Gate of Myth and Power series has previously been delayed due to one of the narrators. But it now is receiving slow but forward progress and I am hopeful the first book will be ready in time for Christmas! I realize December is a long time away, but these are very loooong books so even though progress is being made it will still take a long time to finish them. I will keep you updated as the project continues.

Narration is wrapping up on the Magic on Main Street series and you can expect to see the first audiobook, The Lies of Vampires and Slayers, by the end of August (assuming Audible doesn't take extra long to review it, which sometimes happens). Books two and three will be released shortly that so you can start saving up your Audible credits now if you are planning to grab these as soon as they are out. The audio team members have been loving Considine's POV scenes and we can't wait for you to hear it too!

For other audiobook updates:

• My audio team will continue to work on projects during my book hiatus! Once we have these two Magiford series finished we will start work on the three Elves of Lessa series books. (The Retha and Angelique's series will not be started with audio until those series are finished.)

• You can find the new audio short stories on my YouTube channel, including an awesome King Arthur and Her Knights short that was narrated by the series narrator!

• Pro Tip: If you own an ebook check and see if you can buy the related audiobook at a steep discount using Whispersync. This option is controlled by Audible and isn't available for every audiobook but it's an affordable way to grab the narrated audio version as well!
