About this audiobook
After discovering just how filled with magic, intrigue, and adventure the parahuman world of being an Undead American can be, Fredrick Frankford Fletcher did exactly what was expected-he became a certified parahuman accountant. Myths and legends, as it turns out, are not so great at taking appropriate deductions and keeping their receipts, and Fred is more than happy to return to a life others view as woefully dull, expanding his accounting business to cater to various monsters and their respective financial needs.
Said monsters are, unfortunately, still spectacular at pulling Fred into trouble, though. And despite merely wanting to stick with simple paperwork, Fred once again finds that he is going to have to deal with enchanted weaponry, government agents, possessed houses, and one enigmatic dragon's interest. In the parahuman world, any business can turn deadly, even one as mundane as accounting.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I absolutely love the way these books are written! The satire and humor are spot on for me.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Another adorkable collection of the adventures of Fred, the vampire, who continues to exceed his own expectations and limitations.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Werewolves and Vampires and Dragons, oh my!Fred and his motley crew of friends are at it again. He expands his accounting business, gets kidnapped, recuses the daughter of his client who also happens to be the big bad alpha of his area. He also gets a taste of dragon blood which is a huge boost to his already superhuman abilities. Fred meets the sister of his girlfriend, Crystal, ex-finance, which, awkward! Albert, Fred's sweet, but slow zombie assistant is chosen by a sword of destiny--actual weapons of destiny exist! There is an encounter with an enchanted, basically sentient house. And more kidnapping and lots more dragon blood. So much dragon blood that it leaves Fred with a strange immunity to silver.The recaps were much less in this book which made listening so much better. This was as funny and adventurous as the first book in the series and I'm looking forward to seeing how they tackle the issue of Fred's silver immunity in the next book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5fantastic fun!
this second book in the series is simply fantastic, it builds wonderfully on the previous set of tales and spins off in new wonderful directions. the main characters are starting to feel like family as their quirks and eccentricities unfold.
too good. can't wait to read the next one - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is a collection of short stories from the memoirs of Fred, the Vampire Accountant. Since he started dating Krystal, his forthright childhood friend who happens to be a vessel for a devil and work for a clandestine government agency, Fred has been thrown into one life threatening situation after another. His band of friends include a werepony, a zombie and a couple of mages. Fred's quiet life of accounts, sweater vests and running and hiding at the mere mention of danger is well and truly over!!!
