Publisher's Summary

The Vampire Archives is the biggest, hungriest, undeadliest collection of vampire stories, as well as the most comprehensive bibliography of vampire fiction ever assembled. Dark, stormy, and delicious, once it sinks its teeth into you there’s no escape. 

Vampires! Whether imagined by Bram Stoker or Anne Rice, they are part of the human lexicon and as old as blood itself. They are your neighbors, your friends, and they are always lurking. Now Otto Penzler—editor of the best-selling Black Lizard Big Book of Pulps—has compiled the darkest, the scariest, and by far the most evil collection of vampire stories ever, with over 80 stories, including the works of Stephen King and D. H. Lawrence, alongside Lord Byron and Tanith Lee, not to mention Edgar Allan Poe and Harlan Ellison. The Vampire Archives will drive a stake through the heart of any other collection out there. 

Other contributors include Arthur Conan Doyle, Ray Bradbury, Ambrose Bierce, H. P. Lovecraft, Harlan Ellison, Roger Zelazny, Robert Bloch, and Clive Barker.

Book may be fine but not chaptered!

A 60+ hour audiobook of short stories not being sectioned into parts and having named chapters is unforgivable in my opinion. Even the introduction is not named and several stories go on for multiple chapters which adds to the confusion.

Add to that the fact that the stories themselves actually start a bit after the start of the chapter as some introduction about the author and the story itself is given but it adds to the confusion in navigation.

If publishers/authors or whomever is responsible is gonna be so lazy then Audible should allow the users to contribute chapter names for the book. Some passionate fans may put the time in and correct the situation !!

Very shoddy work from Audible or the Book Publisher !!
