About this listen

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Discovery of Witches—look for the hit TV series “A Discovery of Witches,” streaming on AMC+, Sundance Now and Shudder.

What does it truly take to become a vampire?


On the battlefields of the American Revolution, Matthew de Clermont meets Marcus MacNeil, a young surgeon from Massachusetts, during a moment of political awakening when it seems that the world is on the brink of a brighter future. When Matthew offers him a chance at immortality and a new life free from the restraints of his puritanical upbringing, Marcus seizes the opportunity to become a vampire. But his transformation is not an easy one and the ancient traditions and responsibilities of the de Clermont family clash with Marcus's deeply held beliefs in liberty, equality, and brotherhood.

Fast-forward to contemporary Paris, where Phoebe Taylor--the young employee at Sotheby's whom Marcus has fallen for--is about to embark on her own journey to immortality. Though the modernized version of the process at first seems uncomplicated, the couple discovers that the challenges facing a human who wishes to be a vampire are no less formidable than they were in the eighteenth century. The shadows that Marcus believed he'd escaped centuries ago may return to haunt them both--forever.

A passionate love story and a fascinating exploration of the power of tradition and the possibilities not just for change but for revolution, Time's Convert, the fourth books in the All Souls Series channels the supernatural world-building and slow-burning romance that made the previous books instant bestsellers to illuminate a new and vital moment in history, and a love affair that will bridge centuries.

I enjoyed the storyline but was disappointed it was a different narrator as I was used to the way the voices were in the other books. Otherwise I enjoyed it.


Good

Truthfully, I put off this book because I wasn’t interested in Marcus & Phoebe’s relationship. However, it has all the main characters in the story too—both in modern day and the past—and carries everybody’s stories forward together.
And, I found myself engrossed in Marcus’s past, which I didn’t expect.
Excellent book and absolutely EXCELLENT narration! Highly recommend!

Way better than I expected.

i hated that a new narrator was used as was use to the one who did the first books so threw me off for the character voices etc I LOVED THE FIRST 3 books this one i was not happy it had a different reader

Great series just not happy the narrator changed for this book

It’s not as good as the first three books and really isn’t necessary. It is good in that it resolves a few things and gives a snapshot into what the characters are up to after book three.
I enjoyed the flashbacks to Marcus’s early life and as always I enjoyed the history that is so masterfully told.
Solid book. Don’t expect the same action packed pace as the first three though. This one is easy listening.

If you’re not ready to leave the story, you’ll like this.

Great performance though some of the accents are different for some characters it seems. Loved finding out about how Marcus was made and how Phoebe deals with becomming a vampire.
