TILL DEATH

Narrator Kevin R. Free's emotional connection to the dark, romantic audiobook tugs at listeners' heartstrings. Teenaged George, a vampire, is about to lose his life partner, James, to old age. Free's tone projects George's slowly breaking heart, even as a new opportunity for romance appears. Howard can't wait to finish high school, where he feels frustrated at the lack of support for queer students like him. Free's voice for Howard is higher and more youthful, reflecting his naïveté and emotional volatility. Howard and George's connection is undeniable, despite George's vampiric secret. Free's depictions are easily distinguishable and are perfect for this dual-perspective story. A.K.R. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2025]
