About this listen

Gabriel Halldor...one of the fiercest warriors the world has ever seen, but his tremendous skill can't save him from a sorcerer's curse. Trapped in stone and left lying in darkness for thousands of years, he is, at long last, brought into the sunlight of a Japanese garden, where a young girl comes to sit at his feet and read him stories as she grows to womanhood.

Hana Himura...beloved granddaughter of a Japanese mob boss, raised to the life of a warrior. When death comes for her grandfather, he sends her to the one guardian courageous enough to protect her from a sorcerer who will stop at nothing to have her.

Raphael...the most powerful vampire lord on earth, and the only man who can save Gabriel and Hana from an enemy who would enslave them both.

Running from the certain death that awaits them in Japan, Hana and Gabriel flee to Malibu and the vampire lord her grandfather called friend. Raphael is magic and power combined, and Gabriel and Hana will need both if they're going to survive long enough to defeat their enemy and light the flame of desire that's been simmering between them for years.

Contains mature themes.

Fantastic series

I love it. Love that it ties to the vampire series. Narrator is ok, pleasant, I just didn’t like how he portrayed Raphael and Cyn Sure they are arrogant, but not like their voices he gave them. They just sounded stupid. January 2020 is supposed to be the next book. I can’t wait. Seriously this is a fantastic series!

Great crossover of this author's two story lines

Gabriel has been trapped in stone on the grounds of a Japanese family for over a century. When he is freed and his curse broken, something else breaks as well. He finds himself getting more and more ill. Fortunately, his rescuer knows what to do - take him to California, to Rafael.
It's nice to see a glimpse of Rafael's heart here, to someone other than Cyn. And Nick's heart gets some exposure too.
Can't wait for the next in the Stone Warriors!

On the run from a sorcerer!

The following ratings are out of 5:
Romance: ❤️💙💜💚
Steam: 🔥🔥🔥
Story/Plot: 📕📗📘

Narration: 🎙🎙🎙🎙🎙
Narration Type: Solo Narration

The heroine: Hana - she lives in Nagano Japan and is the granddaughter of a Yakuza mob boss. Her grandfather raised her and taught her the forbidden ways of magic and sorcery. When enemies attack their home, they are after Hana. Her grandfather tells her to go to Gabriel, the statue he got her as a gift when she was young. Though she was raised as a warrior, she ran from their enemy, went through the hedge in the garden to the statue.

The Hero: Gabriel - he was an ancient warrior who fought with his four brothers in arms for a sorcerer named Nicodemus. He was a berserker and a vampire who drank the blood of his enemies. They fought for good until an evil sorcerer named Sotiris cursed the four brothers by encasing them in stone and sending them to the far reaches of the planet, where they have been lost to Nicodemus for thousands of years.

The Story: Hana goes to the statue of Gabriel in hopes that he will wake from his curse and offer her safety. She knew her grandfather was now gone, and her enemies were looking for her (one of them she knew had magical powers). They were after her because of who she was, what she was and what she could do. She was an amplifier of magic. She could double the strength of a magical sorcerer and Sotiris was after her.

The story was ok but not spectacular. I wanted a bit more action and there was something about Hana that I didn’t like. Maybe she was too tough or something. I just wasn’t feeling the attraction between them like I wanted. It did get steamy in parts but I wasn’t feeling it as much as in the last two books. Also it was stupid that Gabriel refused to drink blood from Hana, especially since he was supposed to protect her. He just got weaker and weaker.

This book is told in multiple points of view via solo narration and was narrated by Tor Thom. I have listened to him many times before and really like his narration. He does different voices very well and has a nice deep voice which is great to listen to. I don’t even mind that it isn’t dual or duet narration.

Surprising

This book is so well written and spikes the imagination. I was pleasantly surprised that this warrior wasn’t added to the collection. The thematic is still stunning and the narration is quite good given it is being done by only one person

One Small Problem

While I loved the story and loved Tor Thom's narration, I had trouble with the voices he used for Rapheal and Cins voices. Other then that I truly enjoyed the story and narration.

🌻The narration took away from this book🌻

🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻V from Kansas🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻

As I mentioned, in the reviews of the previous two books, this narrator doesn’t perform Women’s voices, well. Her performance of “Cin’s” voice was so bad that ruined the rhythm of the story, for me. Pairing this narrator with a female narrator could have made this good series, a great series.

This book had the adventure, battles, romance and intrigue of the previous books, and with the exception of parts of the narration, I enjoyed it. I am anxious for the final warrior to be freed and will purchasing the next book, right after posting this review.

Not my favorite so far.

This was my least favorite book in the Stone Warriors series. I disliked the change in allegiance for the MMC. I disliked the FMC all around. I especially was wondering why the change in treatment for Nick, when he has only given love and loyalty to his warriors. Then turning it into a cross over with the vampire series.
