About this listen
V.E. Schwab ‘A ripping read’
Joe Abercrombie
Gabriel de León has saved the Holy Grail from death, but his chance to end the endless night is lost.
After turning his back on his silversaint brothers once and for all, Gabriel and the Grail set out to learn the truth of how Daysdeath might finally be undone.
But the last silversaint faces peril, within and without. Pursued by children of the Forever King, drawn into wars and webs centuries in the weaving, and ravaged by his own rising bloodlust, Gabriel may not survive to see the truth of the Grail revealed.
A truth that may be too awful for any to imagine.
Includes a bonus conversation between Jay Kristoff and actor/director Joseph Morgan (The Vampire Diaries, The Originals, Halo).

‘If you were bitten by Empire Of The Vampire, you’ll know what to expect; if not, here’s another beautifully constructed, epic maelstrom of high-stakes gore and adventure… Awesome.’ Daily Mail
Praise for EMPIRE OF THE VAMPIRE
‘A ripping read – dark as black coffee and savage as a slit throat’
Joe Abercrombie, bestselling author of the First Law trilogy
‘A gothic bloodbath that will leave any reader breathless. The story is a vast apocalyptic canvas, reminiscent of Justin Cronin’s THE PASSAGE or even Stephen King’s THE STAND, yet Kristoff’s work stands on its own ruthless merit as the opening gambit of a richer tale yet to unfold. I can’t wait to return again to this rich, lush, and bloody world. Until then, read this book now!’
James Rollins, no.1 NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of THE LAST ODYSSEY and THE STARLESS CROWN
‘A wonderfully crafted tale, the pieces as meticulously interlocked as fine woodwork. A chilling new take on vampire lore and those who must battle that darkness. EMPIRE OF THE VAMPIRE looks fearlessly at how ruthless Good must become when confronted with unrelenting Evil’
Robin Hobb, SUNDAY TIMES and NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of THE ASSASSIN’S APPRENTICE
'Brilliant and unputdownable, with tenderness and light bound into the bitter dark of a grim and fascinating world'
Laini Taylor, NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of STRANGE THE DREAMER
'This book is bloody brilliant'
V.E. Schwab, NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of THE INVISIBLE LIFE OF ADDIE LARUE
Having a very serious split in POVs throughout this book at first worried me. For about a second. Wonderfully done, and wonderfully narrated to boot.
Silver and blood and intrigue and humour and action and horror and so much more. It really has everything and is so witty.
Very definitely recommend this series. Cannot wait for the next installment. Also love seeing artwork for it shared by Jay on social media. make more art, people. Make more art!
Absolutely loved the split POVs!

Narration was bloody fantastic as always, with Damian Lynch at the helm but with the addition of Shakira Shute (she is a revelation by the way!, I had to message her on Instagram and tell her so 😍), it is PERFECTION
No spoiler but I laughed, I swore, I screamed, I shouted, I ugly cried....and most of all I loved it....my heart might not be broken but it is thoroughly and deeply bruised 💘💔🖤
Astoundingly BRILLIANT
