VAMPIRE$ by John Steakley (unabridged) is presented by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see FEATURES, below).

“This is exciting and surprising stuff….a real genre-bender that keeps the best elements of both.” (Locus)

Suppose there really were vampires. Dark, stalking, destroying. They’d have to be killed, wouldn’t they? Of course they would. But what kind of fools would try to make a living at it? One tightly knit band of brothers decides to do just that in Steakleys vampire classic, an exciting blend of horror and western genres.

Self-contained, this audiobook app is perfect for your commute, on a trip, or while relaxing. Based on a library-quality recording, this app was built especially for your iPhone and iPod Touch. No unreadable text, no endless scrolling on a tiny screen. The audio is of higher-than-normal quality, making for a great listening experience that will not tire your ears or grate on your nerves.

NOTICE: This app includes the exact same 5-star recording offered elsewhere at much higher prices. It was professionally recorded by Blackstone Audio’s Earphones®-winning narrator, Tom Weiner. You are not buying yet another amateur or volunteer narration. No clicks, background noises, throat clearing, mispronunciations, tinny voices or monotones will be found here.

“[The team’s] death-defying bravado and warm male friendships are as intense as those in any soldier-hero epic…. ‘Vampire$’ is one gaudy, action-packed novel. The men are men, the women are vulnerable, and the vampires are mean, ugly monsters….youll love it.” (Amazon.com)
