Lovers' Victory (AUDIOBOOK)

Nice little story

Great

Amazing book

This review is written after listening to the audio version of this book.Finally, we have Snag's story or Menkhef, his given name, and his love interests. The authors did hint in previous books in this series that the13th vampire on the council of 13 might have been the child, but it wasn't. Back in ancient Egypt when Menkhef was still human he had a beautiful wife and everything he could ask for, except a child. He believed that he was sterile and so he invited his very close childhood friend, who was now the leader of his palace guard, to join with them both as part of their marriage. They had both fallen in love with her but it was Menkhef who married her. The arrangement worked well and his best friend became the father of their children.Menkhef and the rest of the team are now ensconced in the oldest pyramid in Egypt, where lots of people have gone to seek sanctuary from Bayel's undead army. Amy and Elijah, a married couple from the USA, have come to visit the Pyramid. Amy is pregnant but their marriage is somewhat rocky as they both feel that something is missing and we soon find out that they are linked to Menkhef.When the time arrives for the battle to defeat Bayel the Council is still only 11 strong as neither Elijah or Amy have consented to join it and Menkhef makes it clear that they are not to be forced. The climax of the battle was not what I was expecting but it did bring to an end the struggles facing everyone. It wasn't as action-filled as I was expecting but it did mean all the loose ends were dealt with.The relationship between Menkhef, Amy and Elijah is toned down, I think for the sake of readers/listeners who don't normally read about threesomes, but it is a strong and loving relationship which does bring happiness to all three of them.At the end of this book, we jump forward in time and find out what has happened to everyone since the day of the battle which I enjoyed.The narration by Gwendolyn Druyor is again excellent as she changes between the many different accents she has to perform, each one always consistent and recognizable. She always delivers a top-notch performance and never disappoints.

So good

This is the perfect end to the series. All questions about snag and the counsel of 13 are answered here. Who knew snag had it in him to be a hot **** Egyptian lover. Lol. I couldn't put this book or the series down.

I read each book and never once had a clue the last story would end the way it did. Great job!

Love it! R.A. Steffan is one of my go-to readers, I will always pick up a copy of her book. Well done on another fantastic release!

I have enjoyed this journey with these characters. I will definitely be reading mirw of Steffan's books in the future.

Snag is my absolute favorite, I do looked forward to this book and was not disappointed. These Authors must have so much fun writing together. Love the whole series

Finally Snag's turn with and added twist! I loved reading this series as it continued to unfold and the impending doom played out.

I really didn't want this series to end. I'm glad things worked out the way they did. This author has a way of keeping you glued to the pages as you're flipping them. And especially keeping you guessing as 'I didn't see that coming' vibe. The writing is clean and well written

I really am not going to say much about this story, since Snags was the last to tell. I personally was excited for this one, thought being the oldest there would be more to tell.We follow Amy and Elijah, on what seems to be a last ditch effort to keep their marriage going. POV's are from all three, but mostly Amy and Elijah.I found that this last installment flowed well, with a pretty straightforward plot that you can see coming. The overall plot line comes to its conclusion, in a rather anti climatic way. I was expecting so much more from Menkhef's story, but it was rather underwhelming, rushed almost.Overall, I was disappointed, but other readers may feel differently. It was satisfactory and answered any lingering questions from all six books.

The final book in this series had an unexpected but a happy ending. The most powerful of the council is the last to be reunited with his reincarnated lovers. The fight they have been raging against the darkness on earth to destroy human kind has finally been won, though there are human casualties. The book is fast paced and the character interactions are strong.

Love these books, had a hard time not reading them. More like this, please & thank you! Keep up the good writing!

I love this entire series, characters in the story line it was amazing switching back from Reading to audible the woman that read the book it was amazing so I can say you'll have to see and here for yourself! definitely moving on to her next series The last vampire

I just finished the last book in this series and have loved each and every one of them!! Not your typical vampire novels--the ending was quite a surprise. I whole heartedly recommend them!

Once you read the first book of this series, you will have to read them all! What a great adventure between light & dark and good and evil! Great writing R.A. Steffan !

I was waiting for this one in particular because I'd made a joke to the author that his love interest had to be a dentist. Obviously. That amused her enough that she and her co-author used that in the story. Yay!As for the story itself, we meet Snag's... that is Menkhef's... love interests. The authors did a bait and switch because for a few books we thought the 13th vampire on the council of 13 might have been the child, but it wasn't. Back in ancient Egypt, Menkhef had a beautiful bride and a very close male friend who also loved his wife. Because Menkhef was sterile, his best friend became the father of his children. That is somewhat spoilery, but when we meet married couple Amy and Elijah, we figure out after a while that there is something joining them all three of them together.As for the battle to defeat the evil, it happens in a way that both makes sense but isn't as action-filled as some readers might be expecting. This might be a disappointment to those who really wanted some terrific battles on the page.As for terrific battles of a more sexual nature, this book treats the poly triangle as MFM, at least on the page. This, too, has its own pragmatic logic as most of the series features MF couples. I understand why it's the way it is, but considering that Steffan can write queer characters both graphically and well, I miss that full expression here. (In other words, it's here, but toned down for audiences not used to reading such things.)If you've been reading along, don't miss this ending. If you like vampire stories, reincarnation, lost loves, and battles of good and evil, this entire series is your playground. Go back to book 1 and give it a try.

I've read quite a few Vampire series, but this one is a favorite. Made me want to read all six books in a row. But I like the anticipation, so intermittently interrupt a series to either what for the next book or heighten the wait. When a book comes to the end and you're sorry it does that's a good book. But when a series ends perfectly as this one did, I felt joy.Would definitely recommend!
