About this listen
From the realms of the Afterlife Saga comes a new spin on this Gothic world....
When a bunch of misfit orphans all find themselves on a bus heading towards a new life, one called Afterlife, it wasn’t quite what they had in mind. But even fate can play games and five teens will soon find themselves asking even more questions than ever before.
Questions about an uncertain future in this new world and the very first one on the top of that long list...what does the King of Heaven and Hell have in store for them?
This is a continuation of the Afterlife Saga, suitable for young adults but a must listen for all Afterlife fans!

Amelia: Lego sets, Star Trek and junk food in my pajamas, these used to be how I would spend my safe and lazy days off. Now, what am I doing with my time? High-speed chases, running from Hellhounds, fighting witches, opening boxes that threaten the entire Vampire race, and stabbing bitches with my shoes. But hey, at least I get to wear a pretty dress on my date. Now all I can hope for is that it isn’t one where people end up shooting at us again. That would be nice. And all this was because I fell in love with a Vampire King. A Vampire King, who claimed me.

Being faced with an uncertain future is nothing new for Ari, not when you lived each day under the control of a demonic cult. But now Ari lives with a new enemy and one she can no longer run from...her past. But soon she will discover that even her past can cling to their future and hold it captive in the form of a curse. So, with a murderer lurking in the shadows of their past and an Angel on the hunt, a killer is not the only thing out there for Vincent to find.

Afterlife...just some gothic nightclub where gossip is fuelled by the presence of a rich and unearthly, handsome family or afterlife...the strange place where time seems to stand still and guests feel the presence of something more powerful held within the confines of the VIP. Keira is new to this small, cold town and is running from a past that seems to feast on her darkest memories. She finds living with her sister away from English soil to be just the ticket to the new life she is trying desperately to find.

Story
The day I snuck into the infamous Devil’s Ring Fight Club. I had followed my cousin Amelia, who turned out not to be quite as innocent as I first believed. In fact, it turned out she didn’t live in the same world as I did…Not at all. I knew this the moment I entered his kingdom. My world changed the moment he found me. He gave me a warning that night. He told me if he ever found me again then next time, he wouldn’t be so quick in letting me escape him. His little Red Riding Hood. It was a threat I took seriously as it was only my dreams that took me back to that place.

Story
Hell. Just do your time, they said. It will be easy, they said. What's a hundred years sentenced to prison in Hell? Well, I can tell you, for an Imp like me, it was a pretty long time. Like most Imps, I am a mischievous sort, and that tends to annoy people, said people like the prison guards. Which meant that my time in Hell had just gotten a lot more complicated. I was about to receive the type of punishment no living soul had ever come back from. Not a single one had ever survived.

It’s been seven years. Seven long years since that cold and cruel Vampire King, Lucius, broke her heart. Her naive little heart destroyed after one painful night when she sneaked in to his Gothic nightclub, Transfusion. Seven years since he humiliated her, casting her aside and telling her just what he thought about her little obsession with him. Then he saved her life. Well, now he is back, and this time he is out for blood, and all she can hope for is that it isn’t hers that’s on the menu.

Afterlife, just a place for an unhappy king to call home or soon to become a beacon of hope when a new waitress falls at his feet? The Gothic nightclub is about to welcome a new guest, and this time it is one he can’t control. As for Dominic Draven, the king of all supernatural life, handling just one little mortal named Keira should be no problem for him…right? Wrong! As she is his chosen one, she is not meant to be ruled by a domineering, overbearing, arrogant boss who is determined to keep her at arm’s length.

I was just a data analyst. I paid my taxes on time. I used to feed a cat that wasn’t my own and bake cookies for the office. I was a good girl. How was my reward finding myself penniless, broken down and stuck on the side of the road with everything I owned piled in the back, and all because I was being chased by the Mob? But then again, I must have had some luck left or he wouldn’t have stopped.

Don't sell your soul to the Devil. Take out a loan instead! Darcie Rose is Satan's top Substitute Soul, tasked with temporarily replacing the eager living souls who sign a deal with the Devil. The exchange is a simple one. They receive a Lucifer-facilitated status boost when they return to their body, and Darcie earns a temporary reprieve from Hell. But there are two rules she must abide by if she wants to stay on Luci's good side: 1.) Avoid her former life now that she is an accidental murderess. 2.) Never expose proof of a demonic Hell in the presence of humans. Easy as pudding... until now.

Living deep in poverty for most of his life, he's become resilient and flexible, but college education can only take him so far.

Wrong Narrator for previously recorded characters
Audible has NO RIGHT using a different narrator for characters Rebecca Rainsford has brought to life for the fans of Stephanie's work. If Rebecca was too busy to record her previous roles then the morons at Audible should have waited. There is no problem using a new narrator for new characters, but don't murder the characters we've grown to love based on scheduling conflicts. Dyer is a great narrator, so please don't confuse who my fury is directed at. Audible has proven before how money hungry they are. If the fans matter, this B.S. wouldn't happen.

Great Youth Read for Afterlife
I really enjoyed this book and ready for the next in series. Have read the adult books of Afterlife Saga and this helps fill in between the other sagas but is a great start Afterlife series for teens. It's funny and dramatic with a start of adventure. Love Pip and Sophia as teachers.; it was hilarious! Great job Stephanie Hudson!!

Too short
Way too short and no actual plot built up to and completed. it's like a prequel that just explains a few vague back stories and introduces characters. Don't pay full price for this one.

Not a whole story
This book mostly told you about rooms. It really only spoke of the plot at the beginning and at the very end. The rest only told you about the rooms the kids saw, food they ate, and their first day of class. At the end they finally started to get to the plot then it ended. I understand they wanted a cliffhanger for the next book, but I would still expect a book to have a complete story. It seems authors are making sure you have to get the next book to finish this first book. If this is only a two book series I guess I won't mind too much, but it does still feel like you are spending two credits to get one book which is a shady way to get money from you. If this series is more than two books I will be very frustrated. I think the narrator is good, but I don't think he was the right choice for this book. He sounds too old for the ages he's portraying and girls didn't sound feminine. I have already bought the next book so I will continue. I am not sure I'll buy additional books if there are any.

Not her best- narration was weak
Could not get on board with the narration- the guy
was boring and made the characters from Stephanie’s saga sound weak and wimpy. Paying $16 for this Audial was a waste of money. Constantly was out to sleep and the book was too short to even bother. Just read it yourself. If they were to group this series together- it might be worth it- if there was a different narrator.

Changed narrators now??😡
After 13 books with Rebecca Rainsford narrating the books and creating the characters, The Glass Dagger is done by someone different!😡. It completely made Draven sound like a total wimp. The story line was great, but the change in narrators made me sorry I bought the audiobook!
