About this listen

Before the wights there were vampires....

Abner Marsh has finally realised his heart's desire, he has built the Fevre Dream, the finest steamship ever to sail the Mississippi river. Marsh hopes to race the boat some day and prove its supremacy, but his partner seems determined to prevent him from fulfilling this ambition. Joshua York funded the creation of the Fevre Dream, but now rumours are spreading about the unusual company he keeps, his odd eating habits and strange waking hours.

As the Dream crosses the great river, it leaves in its wake too many sinister stories. Eventually Abner is forced to confront the man who helped to make his dreams become reality - before his dream turns into a nightmare. Discover George R. R. Martin's Gothic masterpiece, Fevre Dream.

I have to say that the first 75% of this book is simply brilliant, the characters, storyline, ideas, the suspense & mystery, the world Martin creates. However, the last 25% was average to poor; I was disappointed with the ending. It was as if the writer had got bored with the book and just wanted to end it quickly. Shame, had the later chapters lived up to the writing in the first, this could have been one of my all-time faviourite vampire books. Still worth a read!

I very good vampire story

This is a great story but the continued use of a certain word made me uncomfortable. Apart from that it was a great tale of good against evil.

Good but....
