Publisher's summary

Dorian Robert-Houdin, the three-and-a-half-foot gargoyle chef who fancies himself a modern-day Poirot, is slowly turning into stone, and it's up to Zoe Faust to unravel the alchemical secrets that can save him. When they discover that a long-lost stone gargoyle with a connection to Dorian has reappeared in Europe, the stakes are even higher. From Portland to Paris, Zoe searches for the hidden knowledge she needs, but a cold case that harkens back to 1942 throws her off course. With an ailing friend desperately trying to discover his own elixir of life and a new romantic interest offering the first chance at love she's had in nearly a century, Zoe is torn between a dangerous form of alchemy and her desire for a safer life.

Another enjoyable Adventure<br />

this is another enjoyable book in this series. is well-read and has a good field to the book. Not the most moving book I've read this year but entertaining.

Sigh, It is finished.

I just completed the third book in this series. Was a combination of laughter, travel, fighting for life, and death. These were all wrapped up in alchemy. It also includes a very lovable Gargoyle character!
I enjoy this Author and even though I have to leave this story line, I have started another​ group of her books. This is a series of at least 6 books. I hate leaving a set of great characters but looking at the next series, I'll be meeting another bunch of intelligent and interesting characters. This series includes a pirate!
The reader is easy to listen to and extremely good at presenting the different characters. (I always try to hear the voice before choosing an audible now.) I would much rather read the book if the reader grates on my sensibilities! I will follow her too, since I enjoy her presentation.
wishing I knew how to share finished books with Goodreads. " (

Cute Entertaining

The third installment of the Gargoyle series was yet again most entertaining.
LOVED the narrator!!!

wonderful books,

I read all three in this series. loved them. I will be looking for more of her books.

Enjoyable but drags

Enjoyable but depends a bit much on dragging out and/or epeating main character's inner concerns.

Love this series

I can't get enough of this series. The narrator is perfect. I love Dorian and want a gargoyle best friend, too.

Cute Fun Series!

Love the French gargoyle. Because I enjoyed all the other characters I forgave the main character for all her fault. This author seems to think all female main characters get lost in thought and tune out of conversations. She had another main character do it in another series. I found it odd that the love interest wouldn't confide in his girlfriend through all three books. I think I would have found a new playmate. I did really like the premise of the main character. Having eternal youth through the philosopher stone. I love the tie in to a wealth of alchemy background.

much better than the 2nd one

it was over before i knew it! can't wait for the next one. enjoyed it.

Delightful Series

Not sure how I found this series but glad I did. Fun original story. I hope there are more. Going to check out authors other works.

love this fun series!

I sincerely hope there is another installment coming. This is one of my favorite series to get out if my own mind space for a grand adventure.
