"My legal name where I currently reside in the city of Liege, Belgium, is Gaspar Valessi. But that is not my real name. The name I was given some 30,000 years ago, when I was born in a Paleolithic settlement in the region that is now called Germany - the name my father gave me shortly after I was voided, bloody and howling, from my mother's womb - is Gon."

So begins the saga of the immortal Gon, a 30,000 year-old vampire. This, the first volume of his memoirs, recounts his mortal life in prehistoric Germany alongside his male companion, Brulde, and his two wives, the Neanderthal Eyya and his Cro-Magnon mate, Nyala. It details the fearsome events that lead to his transformation from man to undying monster.

This revised and expanded edition includes new material, adding depth to much-loved characters and more fully realizing the author's vision of the oldest living vampire and the prehistoric world that gave birth to him. By turns beautiful and subversive, poetic and seductive, The Oldest Living Vampire Saga is like no other vampire series you've ever heard!

THEY TOOK OUR OFFERINGS AND THAN THEY TOOK OUR SHAMANS
I have been telling everybody that Joseph Duncan's Zombie novel Cattle: The Fearlanders is one of the best zombie books out there for sometime now. I was hoping his vampire story was as good. For the first couple of hours it was, but than I am a big fan of Jean Auel and her randy cavemen.

FAST FEET
The first couple of hours was devoted to open sexual relationships. This was practiced by early man, according to Duncan. Homo as well as Hetero. I was buying all of it and did not have the same problem one reviewer had with the pre-teen sex. It was not adult and child, but kids playing around and imitating the adults. Even Jean Auel expressed that since sex was not private, little kids would play at the act they see their elders do. Even today kids experiment, so I was not bother by it. The problem was that once Duncan quit writing about sex the story got boring. I listened for over seven hours and the guy was still not a vampire. One reviewer said it was nine hours into the 10 and a quarter hour book before the guy was turned. If you advertise a vampire book, you need a vampire. I have checked the reviews for the sequel and it seems that it does not get much better, so I will not continue this series. If the Zombie series continues and I will definitely listen to that.

Narrator
This guy talks the entire time in a gruff whisper. Okay for awhile, grating over time.

I thought this was an outstanding story. a 30 thousand year old vampire a story that moves all the way back to the Paleolithic period. Not something I would have thought of a vampire story the narrator did a wonderful job of bringing you into the story

Where does The Oldest Living Vampire Tells All: Revised and Expanded rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I very much enjoyed a different point of view of a vampires beings and current life.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Oldest Living Vampire Tells All: Revised and Expanded?

When Gon Killed his maker. Wow that was an intense moment in the book.

What does Ian M. Walker bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

This great rough voice. He sounds like a 30,000 year old vampire.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I thought it was so cute when Gon was 1st falling in love with his wife.

Any additional comments?

This is the 1st book that I have listened to by Joseph Duncan and Narrated by Ian M. Walker. I received this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.

I was very interested throughout the entire book. I love history, I like vampire stories and I really enjoy stories of the 1st humans.
Gon is the main character in the book. He has what sounded like the most perfect life growing up with a loving family. Than to being a young man falling in love. I thought the idea of sharing a house hold with more than one wife and husband would be ideal. Everyone would share and take care of each other. The children would grow up loved and safer with 2 more adults looking after them. I felt so sorry for Gon he had everything and lost it all. The only thing he was able to walk away with was the fact that he was able to claim his revenge of the one that took it all from him. I liked too that it was nothing like any vampire book I have ever listened too. What a clever imagination the author must have to tell this story. It was a fun twist on what really happened to the Neanderthal's.

This is the second book that I have listened that Ian M. Walker has narrated. He was amazing again. He used a very rough voice that really fits the 30,000 year old Gon.

Clan of the Cave Bear vampire story. Duncan did a fine job introducing the clan culture and building a believable and immersive world.

Skip to chapter 30, just know that the main characters are all married, homosexual and polygamous, both men and women. Also, there are scenes of child sex that you probably can do without. Other than this, it's an excellent story and worthwhile.

Most of the story seems to be a fictionalized anthropological study of a Cro-Magnon community 30,000 years ago. The tale tells the story of one blended family as told by the alpha male of the household. Not boring, by any means, but perhaps a bit unexpected. Not until about the last eighth is the protagonist overcome by and 'made' by the 'monster' we have come to know as vampire. Interestingly, there are different levels or strengths of vampires. Obviously, the protagonist is of the strongest sort. The book is interesting, but I'm not sure that I wouldn't have done a bit of skimming were it not for the Narrator. He IS the voice of the protagonist, and his performance is world class!

This book is the first in the Oldest Living Vampire Saga. The majority of the book covers somewhere up to maybe 100 years, stating 30000 years ago. So I expect this is going to be about a 300 book saga. But I jest. I don't really expect the series to be that long, but I was just expressing my feelings from reading the book. Often times when you read these "types" of ancients type stories, the authors tend to have pretty narrow coverage in a book of each time period, so perhaps you might get one part of the book dealing with the origin, one dealing with another arc, and often times parts dealing with the present day to try make the books more "exciting". Personally I really liked the way this book didn't try to do that, and just settled down well to try tell a really interesting, unique origin story, without jumping all over the place. I thought the ideas presented and the concepts were pretty unique, rather than just treading out the same or just minor variants on "standard vampire" mythology. On the downside though, I did find the book a bit too "adult" for my tastes though. It was definitely fitting, and most definitely feasible and very likely for the setting it was in (time of neanderthals and cro magnon), but it did make me more than a bit uncomfortable in a few places.

The narration by Ian M Walker was very fitting, and lent the sort of gravitas you'd expect for a story told from first person perspective of an ancient immortal, and was reminiscent of the great John Lee.

I did get this book as a free review copy, but when the next volume of this series is released on audio, I will be compelled to buy it to learn more of the story. I've also got other books by Joseph Duncan - and I do wish Mort would get an audiobook release (I purchased the Kindle version of it, and it is the prequel to the Cattle book, which is on audible also).

Overall, I'd recommend the book to people looking for a unique vampire novel, with easy to listen to and follow narration.

I enjoyed this book very much. I loved the voice of the narrator. It fit perfect with the story. I hope this story line continues.

A vampire who has not lost his humanity, but he has lost so much.

What about the next books? Can we get those on tape also? Narrator is wonderful, Ian Walker.
