Morganville The Series Is Finally Here

10/27/2014

It's the day fans of both Amber and Rachel Caine's phenomenally successful series of novels the Morganville Vampires have been waiting for as it makes it’s long-awaited on-screen debut.

Following a successful Kickstarter campaign a total of $81,752 to help Rachel Caine achieve her dream of taking her Morganville universe from page to screen for the first time.

Earlier this year the online TV channel and multimedia platform Geek and Sundry announced they were partnering with Rachel’s Pen Ultimate Productions to provide the remainder of the funding needed for the series and then show it in full and for free on their YouTube channel.

Morganville enjoyed its world premiere this past weekend at MCM London Comic Con where lucky guests were not only treated to the first two episodes of the series in full but series creator Rachel Caine was also in attendance for a panel with cast members:

Amber Benson “Amelie”

Robert Picardo “Oliver”

Lindsay Seidel “Claire Danvers”

Jordan Farris “Shane Collins”

Ben Easter “Michael Glass”

There was a Morganville screening and panel on both Saturday and Sunday I was lucky enough to attend the Saturday panel and along with other fans got the chance to meet Rachel, Amber, Robert, Lindsay, Jordan and Ben it was a great event and I’m so glad I got a chance to be part of it. I just returned from London last night and I hope to be able to post a photo or two from the panel tomorrow.

Today saw the release of episode one (The Glass House) and episode two (Bite Me) on the Geek and Sundry YouTube channel. Click the link below to watch both for free now. Geek and Sundry will show new episode(s) each day as part of their “Halloweek” celebrations.

Here is the direct link to Geek and Sundry’s Morganville page on YouTube where all the subsequent episodes will be posted throughout the week for fans to watch.

I also plan to post direct links to the new episode(s) each day this week on the AmberBenson.TV Twitter feed and Facebook page to help you find them even faster.

Having already seen episodes one and two I can tell you this series looks fantastic and is sure to be a hit with fans. The entire AmberBenson.TV team would like to congratulate Rachel, Amber and the entire cast and crew on working so hard to bring the series to the screen. I'd encourage anyone to check out the series for themselves whether you're a long time Morganville fan or a newcomer to watch the series and spread the word. As I said above I was lucky enough to meet Rachel and she was also quick to thank every single person who contributed to the Kickstarter campaign for making the series possible.

Now if you'll excuse me I'm off to watch episodes one and two again I could swear I've seen that man on one of those missing persons posters somewhere before. ;)

Here is some good news for fans of Amber and Gretchen Archers’ Davis Way Crime Caper series. The third book in the series titled Double Strike was recently released as an audiobook following on from the superb job Amber did in bringing to life Davies and Co in Double Dip (the previous book in the series) Amber has returned to lend her vocal talents to Double Strike.

Davies Way is a member of the elite security team at Bellissimo Resort and Casino in Biloxi. Davies has her hands full when a powerful storm from the Gulf hits the Bellissimo putting the lucrative Strike It Rich event in jeopardy. As if that was not enough she has a new boss to contend with well actually two one of whom speaks in hashtags. Keeping her employers the Sanders family safe is easier said than done while battling to change her own marital status. The Strike It Rich event remains shrouded in mystery with her new bosses seemingly determined to keep her in the dark but why? The answer may lie with a software designer but to find them Davies is going to need all of her detective and computer hacking skills as the search will take her back to Alabama she’ll soon discover that this game could turn deadly and a whole host of shady characters are prepared to go all in.

Double Strike gives Amber another opportunity to once again let loose her lovely southern accent which adds another dimension to Gretchen’s exciting blend of action, mystery, humour and romance in another enjoyable instalment in the series.

Double Strike audiobook is out now and more exciting news for fans of the series it is unabridged. The audiobook is available to buy from Audible both here in the UK click here and in the USA click here, both sites offer the facility to buy the audiobook for a one-off fee for non-members.

I have some exciting news for anyone planning to attend the Morganville the series panel and premiere at MCM comic con in London later this month some of the screening times have now been confirmed.

After some initial confusion earlier in the week we can confirm that there will be Morganville screening on Sunday, 26 October between 2 - 2:30 PM in VidFest UK area.

It was later confirmed via the official London MCM twitter account that they are planning a Morganville panel on Saturday however the time and location are yet to be confirmed.

Saying:

“Quick note for #Morganville fans coming to MCM #London #ComicCon

There is a Saturday panel time & stage TBC :)

@rachelcaine @MV_The_Series”

I will be attending MCM London Comic Con so I asked if anyone wishing to attend the Morganville panel would need a separate ticket along with the one they purchased for the event.

They responded via Twitter to say that and I quote:

"@AmberAddict @rachelcaine @MV_The_Series MCM panels are not usually ticketed :)”

They confirmed however that if the situation changes they will update their website. When and if I have any more information to bring you on this and/or the time of the panel on Saturday I will do my very best to update the site ASAP.
