Heart of Stone: The Negotiator Trilogy, Book 1 Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Enjoying this story. It has enough fantasy to take me away from reality and put me another persons world and life. Escapism! "

" This was an odd book for me. I came close to wanting to dislike the main character and her actions and also the actions of Alban, but I just couldn't quite there. They weren't bad characters and do have some good qualities, but they certainly acted stupid on a number of times. I liked the idea of five Old Races. It was nice to have gargoyles, selkies, and djinn instead of the usual vampires (although there were vampires too) and werewolves. There was a fascinating interplay between the head honchos and Margrit. I couldn't quite call the romance between Alban and Margrit a romance, especially with how the book ends. It was nice not to have the main character fall instantly in love with the dark, mysterious, oh so dangerous guy. "

" A woman detective with an off again, on again relationship with a policeman gets involved with an extraordinary group of people and proves herself a worthy adversary and friend. I am looking forward to tracking down the sequels........ "

" Very entertaining book. Not what I was expecting and was a very absorbing read. "

" This was a reread as the other two books were in the library and I thought I had better revisit the world so I was familiar again with the characters. "

" Great start to a new series... "

" I think 160 pages is enough to decide that this book is terrible. It is soooo slow and boring! "

" Really like so far----definatly keeping me entertained! Thanks Melis! "

" More like a 2.5. Good idea, but execution is weak. "

" I won't waste your time with a lengthy review. I loooooved it!! Forget trashy vamp romance. This author has supernatural nailed down. I can't wait to get my hands on the next one. "

" I put this book down several times. It is poorly written at the first and it really upset me. Though one night it was all I really had to read and I needed something, so I forced myself past those first couple of chapters and it got better. "

" Reading this book was complete luck...it was on an Audible first book sale (always a good sales tactic) and because of a reading challenge. Add a gargoyle into the mix...and we have success! I do believe I need the next book now. "

" I totally love this book! I absolutely can't wait to read the next book in the series :) Thanks Tawsh for the book ! "

" A woman falls in love with a gargoyle. Original premise. "

" So this was slow to start but very intriguing; well worth pushing through the slower beginning. Really liked the unique characters and the strong female lead. "

" Not a bad story for a light read. Old Races were cool and I wouldn't mind reading more about them. Rest was just okay. "

" I'm not quite sure what went wrong. It took 300 pages into the book for me to like the lead, even just a little. The romantic story was very forced and rushed. The sexual tension was immediate and improbable. "

" I really got into this book at the begining I guess because the character lives in NYC near central park and she is black. for some reason toward the middle end of the book i feel like it starts to get a little slow... I really want to like this series. "

" I really liked this novel. I liked the protagonist, Margrit (Grit), she's feisty and not at all what I expected. I particularly liked the gargoyle, Alban. "

" I tried reading this a year ago. I got to five chapters and just put the book down. It was boring with a capitol B. I mean really how long was the freakin gargoyal going to stare at her from a far... then he gets her and its just flat. "

" Can't wait to get the 2nd book......... "

" Kind of fun switch from all the vampire fiction out these days. This one's about a gargoyle instead. A little too much chick lit to really make me want to read the rest of the series, but a nice originality in the concept. "

" Loved the story and awesome details! I hated the amount of foul language. ridiculously stupid language sometimes but all in all a good book. "

" I really enjoy Murphy's books and find the idea of gargoyles interesting. We'll see where she takes this. "

" So this was slow to start but very intriguing; well worth pushing through the slower beginning. Really liked the unique characters and the strong female lead. "
