About this listen

Sam Parker is a vampire with a gift so strong and substantial that she is invited to partake in a test for a place in the Grand High Master Vampire's private army. She finds that not only has the army never included a woman, but it has never included a Svente vampire; a breed that is regarded by the super strong Pagori breed and the hypnotically beautiful Keja breed to be too tame and human-like.

Most refuse to take her seriously, especially a Pagori commander named Jared who she craves in spite of herself. The Grand High Master, however, sees her potential and offers her the position of Jared's co-commander to help train the newest squad in time for the impending attack on his home. Sam has to demonstrate to Jared and the squad of chauvinists why it is incredibly foolish to underestimate a wilful, temperamental, borderline-homicidal Svente female.

I have read almost every book that Suzanne Wright has written and as soon as is possible I have purchased her books in audiobook form. A mixture of her talented writing and well chosen voice actors who have a good range and pleasant voices have so far made me thoroughly enjoy every audiobook that I have.
Let’s talk characters. As with her other books, Here Be Sexist Vampires had a wealth of wonderful characters. We have our feisty, interesting, and beautiful leading lady, Sam and our stubborn, sexy but apparently sexist, leading man Jared. Then we have an absolute stellar cast of other personalities.

Sam is approached to leave her abusive sire and try out become a member of the Grand High Masters (vampire) army. Unusually Sam is a Sventé vampire, her type of vampire is generally considered to be the lowest on the totem pole and the type of breed that is tamest and appears more human, and of course she is a woman. Two things that are unheard of in the Grand High Masters army. Sam, along with a selection of other vamps try out to join the army. Unlike Sam the other vampires trying out are all male and either the Pagori breed that are regarded as super strong, or the hypnotically beautiful Keja breed.
Sam is mocked upon sight and as she makes it further and further through the trials the comments are nothing short of amazed that a female Sventé is triumphing as others fail. Despite her incredible talent and power Jared does not choose her to become a member of the army.

Luckily for Sam the Grand High Master sees her as having more potential that a soldier and makes her a Commander, tasked with working as a team with Jared to prepare the troops. Jared, predictably does not take this news well.

Sam is such a wonderfully feisty character who takes rubbish from no one and she regularly made me smile throughout the book. There are so many likeable, amusing, strong and interesting characters that I would be typing all day if I attempted to cover them all. The amazing thing is the the two voice actors that narrated this book were outstanding on all of those characters, managing to express so much personality and attitude. Justine Eyre, and P.J. Ochlan are the Female and Male voice actors narrating this book and they are incredibly skilled.

As soon as I finished this audiobook I came onto Audible and purchased the second audiobook in the Deep In Your Veins series and pre-ordered the third

Entertaining enough story spoiled by the male attempting an English London accent! Really terrible! Please don’t bother, just speak American to stop the pain an English person feels!

Ghastly supposedly English accent!!

I was out of by the title for a long time but decided to give it a try and I can’t believe it took me so long to read this story. I love Suzanne Wright’s writing and before this book I preferes the shifter books but now this is my favourite book. I love that we have a really strong female character (like most SW tend to be) but all the interaction and prep for the battle are pretty great too. This book is spicy (really spicy) and has a bit of everything. I had to get the audiobook for it too and the narrators are brilliant. I found funny when they did each other’s accent but over all it was really well narrated.

Great book

The idea was different and original enough for a vampire story. Sam is a strong woman how has me captivated. Even though she is fighting sexism, the is lack of female comradery, and the author makes a few minor aggression about black/dark skinned women which you'd probably notice if you share the same race.

The male narrator does his Cockney accent as if he's making fun of a speech impediment. Would've preferred the whole book narrated by the lady.

I did really enjoy the premise of a story. As a black woman I often wonder why POC are not as included or a secondary after thought in Fiction/Fantasy.

Strong Start! Iffy Middle and Strong End!
