Book Review: Stonewhisper

About the Book

Lovers of the Night Angel trilogy and the Ember Blade will enjoy this dastardly tale of torn loyalties, a criminal empire, and a fallen hero.

Erion spends his days fighting Daemanon’s monsters and his nights skirting the line between criminal and victim. He’s stuck as a hired thug for the Crimson Fang—forced to pay his father’s debt as he tries to keep the Fang from discovering his younger brother’s potent Life Magic. When Erion kills the wrong man, he gives the Fang exactly what they need to bring him into their criminal ranks.

When a Guardian of Pelinon arrives to investigate a series of disappearances, Erion and his dodgy allies unearth the truth of the disappearances buried beneath layers of stone, secrets, and death.

Necromancers weave dark rites. Chaos erupts. For Erion, is there any good in being a hero if there’s no one left to save?

For lovers of Dungeons & Dragons and GameLit, this is a book from the sweeping epic fantasy world of Eldros Legacy.

My Review

Stone Whisper, by H.Y. Gregor is a young adult high fantasy adventure of the highest caliber. This story was crafted to provide tantalizing plot and subplot lines, skillfully woven into a complex tale of magic, monsters, and mayhem. Gregor offers interesting and complex characters, vivid discriptions, and an intriguing plot.

As Erion slays his way through monsters and hellhounds to discover who is behind the recent rash of disappearances of young peasant women, he uncovers a great evil happening right under the noses of all. But, he’s caught in clutches of the Crimson Fang, a criminal gang running rampant in the city, in order to clear his father’s debts, forced tol use his earth magic for their benefit. Torn between a need to keep his younger brother hidden until he can come up with asuccessful plan to get him away from the city, and his obligation to pay his father’s debt to the criminal Crimson Fang, and a realization that the evil must be stopped.

The adventure is high and the stakes are higher, and all is not as it seems. Stone Whisper is a thoroughly entertaining read. I give it five quills.
