Opal Fire: A Stacy Justice Mystery, Book 1

The story was very entertaining and I'm a sucker for a story that has an animal as part of the story (Stacy's pet dog). Not only was it comical in places, but it had a good mystery at the heart of the story. Her family provided several laugh out loud moments and added to the story. This was a cleverly written who-done-it, without getting bogged down in the details. It was a very easy listen and the narrator was very good. I look forward to the other two books in the series.

I really liked Stacy's character and her relationship with her dog and family. Even though she was a witch, that was not the main focus of the story. She is a very normal type of person who just happens to have magical abilities and a dysfunctional family.

If you are looking for a lighthearted, fun mystery with several quirky characters and a strong female lead character who is very likeable, then this is the story for you.

The story line is great at first I had a hard time getting into it but once I did I finished it in one night

I really wish i could say Stacy but I really love the sister bound between the three older ladies coming from a three sister family I know how they really feel when they take care of one another I think I would be lolly even though I am the youngest lol I like to be out there sometimes!!!

I did Like The way the Story Was told so Thumbs up

I can't re name it the name fits when you read the book

I wish they were longer!!!!!

This is straight genre writing. It's a satisfying story and a good mystery.

Yes and no. I want to listen to the other titles in this series, but I would rather this narrator were not doing them. I would never seek out this narrator. Her voice is very flat and has an odd inflection. Words like "death" sound like "dath," and I find that distracting.

It's interesting to learn a bit about wicken culture.

Here we have a supernatural mystery where the supernatural doesn't overwhelm the story. It gives the story a good grounding while having enough wonder at what the supernatural side of things will contribute.

On the downside the characters were a little two dimensional. There needs to be a bit more development there. The villain of the piece was a little obvious and could have been more of a surprise with a few more tweaks and less mustache twirling.

I've already picked up the next two in the series. I listen to a lot of audiobooks and am always looking for promising authors.

A good narrator can make or break an audiobook. Additionally, the right narrator can really bring the characters to life. Amy R. does a good job here and I think can be safely added to the list of Narrators that I will gladly listen to.

Light and funny. A good pass of a few hours. I'll probably continue with the series.

Loved it and think the series is very fun! I can't wait to download the second book!

I like Stacy and Cinnamon. This was a quick and easy listen. A great vacation read.

Nice book and easy listen. One thing that was quite distracting was that the narrator's voice was so robotic! Overall, the story was entertaining and the protagonist and other characters were likable, if one dimensional. While I generally love book series and usually am anxious to read more, I am not sure that I will continue this one. This may be one that I continue by just reading and not listening to an audiobook, as I have a feeling I would like it more without the narrator's voice.

This was a nice whodunit. No swear words, no sex, and a big loveable dog. Stacy was in denial of her magical powers because she believed she caused her fathers death. However, her grandmother thinks its time for her to accept her given gifts and get on with her calling. We all know Fate loves to dip her hands in and does just that. What happens next has Stacy becoming a believer and accepting the way things are.

The narrator did a fine job. I have heard so many mediocre narrators lately I have become inured to them, unless they are super horrible.

This is an easy listen, young people would enjoy this one also. Its pretty tame and clean.

i didnt love anything.. the narrators just didnt do it for the story it was hard to stay interested but hang in there the story is pretty good.

the way the story comes together

NO

cinnamon
