History
isn’t always what it seems.
With the battle of Egypt behind them, Alec and Cronin are enjoying the thrill of new love. Though fate doesn’t wait long before throwing them back into the world of weird.
They know Alec’s blood is special, though its true purpose still eludes them. And given Alec’s inability to be changed into a vampire, Cronin is free to drink from him at will. But the ramifications of drinking such powerful blood starts a ripple effect.
With the help of Jorge, a disturbing vampire-child with the gift of foresight, Alec and Cronin face a new kind of war. This time their investigations lead them to the borders of China and Mongolia—but it’s not what lies in the pits beneath that worries Alec.
It’s the creator behind it all.
In the underground depths of China, amidst a war with the Terracotta Army, they will find out just what the Key is, and what Alec means to the vampire world.

This is a book two in the
Cronin’s Key Series and I feel it is best read in order since this one picks
up after the first.
Alec, Cronin and all his
friends are back and recuperating from the last mystery. They are also waiting
to see what the next task is for Alec before he can be turned. What they find
out is rather grim. We are introduced to a new vampire Jorge that is a child
vampire with very special talents. (this is where the audio really came in play
as Joel Leslie knocked this character out of the ballpark. You could feel his
childish excitement then the very creepiness as well. I loved him so much…
maybe more so than Alec and Cronin…LOL).
There is lots of action
and another mystery. This one too gives us an awesome lesson in history When we
find out who the evil vampire has risen this time is. I loved all the code
deciphering, the friendships growing tighter, the suspense and the romance.
This story has it all and
in vampire form so what isn’t to like!
As Usual Joel Leslie knocks
an already fabulous story up a notch with his wonderful voices, accents, and
excitement. If you can possibly get the
audiobook, I highly suggest it.
N.R. Walker is an
Australian author, who loves her genre of gay romance. She loves writing and
spends far too much time doing it but wouldn't have it any other way.
She is many things; a mother, a wife, a sister, a writer. She has pretty,
pretty boys who she gives them life with words.
She likes it when they do dirty, dirty things...but likes it even more when
they fall in love. She used to think having people in her head talking to her was
weird, until one day she happened across other writers who told her it was
normal.
She’s been writing ever since...
