I enjoyed the first three books, sold together as Chronicles. It was probably written for the youth market, but this AARP candidate fell in love with the gargoyles —even the ones less charming than Oliver.
If you read the headlines of any major newspaper, you know the ugly stuff going on. I keep informed, but in my off hours, I also retreat into whimseyas the perfect Bandaid, and this lovely collection hit just the spot!
Great characters, imaginative future or alterverse, ever growing tension as the plot leads on, heightened trajectory … what’s not to love!
If you’re too much a realist, don’t buy this, but if you’re creative, fanciful and happy to be entertained, then grab this up and move it to the top of the list of books that will take you elsewhere when that’s where you need to be!
The first and third books are the best. The second one is too intense for too long and makes for tiring reading. Could have been shortened or filled out with ‘rest stops’ at points, but the series is interesting and different.
These were fast, easy to read, entertaining books. Great characters, wonderful character building. Good plots. If you like Kim Harrison’s The Hallows, I think you will enjoy these. The only negative I can say is that sometimes she gets a little to involved in the quartz descriptions.
Funny, with good dialogue and an interesting story. Excellent descriptions (you’ll know when you get to them) of key events pull you right into the events that are occurring and make for an exciting read. Definitely recommend.
Different, very enjoyable!
The Gargoyles in this book are central to the existence of magic. The humans have elemental magic – air, fire, water, wood, and earth – but that magic is enhanced and strengthened by gargoyles. The main character, Mika, is an earth elemental who specializes in manipulating quartz. One night an infant gargoyle, Anya, comes to Mika for help in rescuing four siblings who’ve been kidnapped to be tortured for their magic. And Mika learns that she can actually heal gargoyles, helping them regrow amputated limbs. Mika then gets involved with a magical FSPP team that deals with out-of-control Magic. The book is a unique read, and I quickly grew to like Mika and her neighbor Kiley as well as FSPP member and fire elemental Marcus. The plot of each book is fast paced and interesting, and the author is creative in the magical problems and solutions she creates.
I really enjoyed this series, i’ve read it twice now and enjoyed it each time. It’s in my Favorites folder
Very fun read. Good theme and flow to the stories. Recommend
Wonderful imaginative read! I was enthralled with the storyline and the delivery was awesome!
I enjoyed reading this one.
Thoroughly enjoyed this series and want more! What’s more adorable than gargoyles?
Absolutely loved this book. I love gargoyles and gemstones and the combination was fascinating. some of the science was over detailed, but overall I loved the 3-part series.
Charming, wish there were more in the series….
Very unique and well thought out. Loved the heroine and the gargoyles! The magic was amazing.
The “science” described in the book is so believable. You really get attached to the gargoyle characters, and root for the main character through all three books. I am looking forward to getting the next in the series.
Amazing world-building.
Being a “rock hound”, I found the mineral descriptions interesting as I could visualize them in my mind.
Really enjoyed.
Interesting take on gargoyles. Skipped some of the action scenes to move on to the relationships.
I liked the good and the sacrifice some will make for others even if they are not real.
