Well - again Juliet Dark leaves me sitting on the edge of my seat and ready for the next book in this series. I'm so glad that Callie was able to save her friends from Faery. I was beginning to wonder about all the men she's fallen in love with since the beginning of the series.. Liam, Bill, William - seems like there was another one in there also that I can't remember - was getting to be a bit too much. But then I thought if all of these men are actually just versions of the one incubus, then I guess I understand why she keeps falling in love. I hope William (the man in the beginning) is her true love and that's what we're getting to eventually. Otherwise, she's just doing everybody! This was a nice adventure in to the past and the Fae realm that leads her back to her own time and saves her friends from the Nephilim that were there at Fairwick to do harm. I wonder was Juliet has in store next. The Angel Stone is Heavenly ReadTo say simply that a work like The Angel Stone, the third book of the Fairwick Chronicles, by Juliet Dark, aka Carol Goodman, is a Fantasy Fiction novel written in first person does such an injustice to the work that it puts the entire reviewing process into question. It is a cross-genre novel, but to say even that bit more does not add the needed information. It occurs to me that the only reason Hollywood has not latched onto this series is that it could never do justice to the tale, regrettably that has never stopped the Hollywood establishment before. This book has something for every Fantasy fan and then some, from action to mystery to romance to mythical beings; it is full of what readers crave. The characters are vivid and emotionally charged, which creates the alternate reality for which many authors only strive. The main character, Cailleach McFay, is strong, brave, and loves with her full heart. She is a hero worthy of the classic epics. The other characters are just as vivid as Cailleach, staying with readers even after the tale is finished. Cailleach is not the only character at the forefront, but it is her story and she is telling it. The plot is a twisting and turning roller-coaster of action and events, which readers devour page by page until it is gone. The tale, though complex, is easy to follow and flows smoothly throughout. Landscapes transition through time and experience with nary a hiccup. Dark’s/Goodman’s work is creative and fresh. It envelopes readers in worlds and situations that are so skillfully created that each leaves little wonder as to why well-written literature is an art form. It is always wonderful to find a new exhilarating writer and/or work to explore. This author and series does not disappoint.
