4.5
I listened to an audiobook on YouTube narrated by Tony Walker, which was amazing. His delivery for the story and the characters' voices, is top-notch, finominal. I usually can't get into audiobooks because It's hard to understand who is talking when the narrator reads everything in the same tone. But Tony Walker had such an amazing voice that I could tell who spoke from different tones and accents. But for the book itself, I was close to giving it 4.5 - 5 stars because of the overall feeling I had listening to it and the pacing of the story.

However, I was a bit disappointed in the ending when the last fight was somewhat anti-climactic from all the previous encounters they had with the Count, for it to end the way it did. Yet, the ending with Harker writing everything that has happened since then was a nice sweet satisfying ending, to such a dark classic.</spolier>
