Greywalker

Greywalker, Book 1

By: Kat Richardson

Narrated by: Mia Barron

Kat Richardson excels at creating vivid, fast-moving novels that blend urban fantasy with paranormal mystery. In Greywalker, Seattle P.I. Harper Blaine is viciously attacked and murdered - but after exactly two minutes, somehow she returns to life. Now she's seeing strange things all around her - dark visions from the shadow world - and living a normal life may no longer be possible no matter how hard she tries.©2006 Kathleen Richardson (P)2008 Recorded Books

A great occult start

More books about the greywalker. A most enjoyable and uninteresting series. On to book 2

Not NEAR as bad as those other reviews...

What did you love best about Greywalker?

The concept is new. You still get a mix of the supernatural beings (there are vampires, ghosts and witches, etc) but also new things; and the main character's ability is new.

What other book might you compare Greywalker to and why?

Not quite sure yet. Haven't seen another character with her ability. Although she is a very tough female lead which I gravitate towards in the books I love.

What three words best describe Mia Barron’s voice?

A little mellow. Although Barron's performance is definitely not the best I've heard, she is also NOT the worst I've heard... Her reading can be a little slow at times, and her voice octave doesn't change much when it's a male character speaking, but she is fairly good at different accents.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I like the friendship between Harper and her witch friend, Mara. It's genuine.... Mara seems very genuine and is actually my favorite character. There should be a book about her...

Any additional comments?

I actually love the fact that the main character ha s a ferret. I have one and hers is portrayed pretty true to life.

Reread-better than anything new out there today

I have been very unhappy with the whiny, mewling female characters out there right now. All they seem to think about is getting horizontal, the paranormal mystery or whatever is simply an afterthought to pining after jerks. So refreshing to read a strong woman. Of course, at the time of the writing faxes, dial up modems, folded printer paper and phone booths were the height of tech, so that made me laugh! I am downloading the rest of the series and highly recommend. Cheers!

amazing story telling

I love this series. truly great stories that don't rely on cheesy romance to sell them

Narrator Mia Barron Is Being Strangled

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Someone please call the police... the narrator of this book is apparently being strangled. Well, actually it is a lot of
