Fans can't get enough of New York Times best-selling author MaryJanice Davidson's Queen Betsy vampire tales, which combine sly humor, romance, and the supernatural. In her 11th adventure, following Undead and Undetermined, Betsy's up to her fangs in paranormal trouble. Still heartbroken over her friend Marc's sacrifice, Betsy is further plagued by nagging suspicions that her half-sister Laura is up to no good. It seems that Laura has received an offer to assume her mother's duties overseeing Hell-but only if she first kills Betsy.

"I really like how this book furthered the story started in the last one. By book eleven I'm about ready for the series to be over, although I've loved every minute of it. But MJD did a great job of keeping the interest up with this new story arch with Ancient Betsy and the skinning of Sink Lair. She didn't however leave quite the hook I was expecting knowing this was a three book story arch. I have no idea what's coming up for book (hopefully the last) twelve. I didn't laugh out loud quite as much in this one as I have in previous Betsy novels. I guess maybe I'm just too used to her schtick by now. I did however love that she's embracing her Queen of the Vampires role now and not entirely the ditzy, I-can't-do-anything-on-my-own blond we all knew she never was."

" Wishing it moved a little faster and Sinclair didn't seem so much of a wuss. "
— Alisha, 2/13/2014" As these books continue on, I like them less. They need more substance. Its like one event is rambled on about for chapters and chapters. I think she has a new editor who probably sucks at their job. Make these books with more substance, less retelling of old books and a thick story line. Read some jd ward....now those are big meaty books that pull you in. this one I would put down and forget about for days. "
— Jody, 1/21/2014" This book lived up to its name. UNSTABLE. At times she just rambled on and on. At other times kept repeating itself. But with its crazy characters and banner, this book was bearable. But its time for MaryJanice Davidson to drop the UN and end the series. "
— Eddie, 1/21/2014" after I got thru all the rambling from Queen Betsy it was a good story. I must not be on my best today because I didn't enjoy it as I usually do. "
— Ruth, 1/6/2014" I have enjoyed many of the Undead series but this one was a bit off the mark. Too many storylines, too choppy while moving from one storyline to the next. Unfortunately it felt as if this book was made of pick up sticks - pull one and put it in a chapter, pull another and add that too. Hoping the next one is a bit more cohesive. "
— Rita, 12/31/2013" I love these books, so fun and easy to read. Betsy plays like she's so dumb most of the time, but really the opposite. "
— Shera, 12/28/2013" Time to end this series. It was so funny in the beginning and I found it was one on the best I had read. Now it just rambles on and on and on and on AND ON. It was hard to even finish this book. "
— Paula, 12/24/2013" this series is too strange now, I like the author's quirky style but she should either end it or go with an actual plot or something new for Betsy and the gang "
— Pam, 12/18/2013" Overall, I LOVE this series. I didn't like this 3 story arc, though, and I'm usually a fan of time travel, but this title wasn't bad. This book summed things up and set up the next one in the series. "
— Chris, 12/8/2013" The latest in the Queen Betsy series seems disjointed, rushed and much like the title - Unstable. Although it was to wrap up the 'trilogy' within the series - it still leaves a lot of open ends. Really my least favourite thus far in the series. :( "
— Sarah, 12/3/2013" This was the latest in the Queen Betsy books. These are always funny and make me laugh. Glad to see the Book of the Dead issue is solved - for now at least. "
— Brandy, 12/2/2013" Didn't even finish this one. This series jumped the shark on the last book Undead and Undermined. Will definitely not be continuing with the series. "
— Carmen, 11/23/2013" I liked this entry better than the last couple. "
— Janna, 10/1/2013" I gave this book 3stars just for the funny parts everything else just kinda sucked "
— Carey, 6/25/2013" great book, love the new direction the writer is going. Was a little confusing since it's been so long since the last book came out. "
— Kelly, 6/17/2013" I loved her first books because they were almost a parody of the vampire books that were published at that time. In her more recent books it seems she's trying to be too serious. I think she needs to go back to the humor, it's what she writes best. "
— Marcy, 6/2/2013" No different than the other books funny in parts dull in parts overall ok but IMO the series has peaked and should probably wrap up soon like the next book. "
— Tara, 5/20/2013" This one was better than the previous 2 in this "story arc", some things got resolved so I am happy, Betsy was back to her funny, snarky self absorbed ways....and I LOVED IT!!!!!!! "
— Just, 4/23/2013" I think this will be the book that gets me to stop reading the series. I couldn't finish this one. I got about halfway through and realized I had books I'd rather be reading. It was confusing and I just wanted to slap most of the characters. "
— Mskchick, 12/23/2012" Love this funny, bizarre series. "
— April, 12/20/2012" I love these books! Following Betsys journey has been a wild and sometimes very wild ride. "
— Deb, 11/23/2012" Fun fluff. For those that like that sort of thing, that's the sort of thing they like. I like that sort of thing. ;) "
— Betsy, 11/15/2012" I used to enjoy this series,but as with many other series I read, I am now in a waiting game. The story is difficult to follow and frequently I can't figure out who is talking. It's a chore to read it and it's making me crazy. "
