Summary

A Mass Murder. A Disappearance. A Cemetery Ransacked.

It looked like another ordinary day in Los Angeles. Then night came...Evil as old as the centuries has descended upon the City of Angels - it comes as a kiss from the terrifying but seductive immortals. Slowly at first, then by the legions, the ravenous undead choke Los Angeles with bloodthirsty determination - and the hordes of monstrous victims steadily mount each night.

High above glitter city a deadly contest begins. In the decaying castle of a long-dead screen idol, the few remaining human survivors prepare to face the Prince of Evil and his satanic disciples. Whilst the very forces of nature are called into play, isolating the city from the rest of the world and leaving it at the mercy of the blood-hungry vultures of the night...They Thirst

This is one of the great classic vampire stories of all I know it is becoming a bit dated with it being written in the 70's but anyone who loves vampire tales can't go wrong with this audio book it's well narrated and I would recommend it.

I loved the story! These beasts are truly horrific, not romanticised. The narration is superb, the man of a thousand accents!! A well deserved 5 stars!

The kind of story that worked twenty or thirty years ago in a Salems lot, Stand kind of a way, and when you listen now it's all so familiar it's almost a cliche. But you can blame the 'passage' for moving things on and leaving stories like this a little creaky. Still, I enjoyed it in an innocent way.

Relive Eighties horror

Far too many characters are introduced at the beginning and the story jumps around so much that it is hard to follow what is actually happening. Once things start to actually happen it's all too rushed. I think the story must have gotten messed up in the editing as it's not the usual McCammon standard.
