Resumen del Editor

Aisling Grimlock never thought she'd join the family business. In fact, she was dead set against it. When an economic downturn causes her to lose her job, she's forced to go to desperate measures to earn a living.

Aisling comes from a big family of grim reapers - no, that's right. She's the youngest of five siblings - and the only girl - and the testosterone is going to hit the fan when the Grimlocks try to teach Aisling the ropes and keep her safe at the same time.

Between rogue wraiths, murderous new acquaintances and gargoyles dropping from the sky, Aisling has her hands full. That's on top of four brothers (and one curmudgeonly father) who would die for her - while also killing for her - and a police officer who's desperate to learn the family secret.

Follow Aisling as she delves into the mystery of her mother's death and a world she never wanted to explore - and yet might fit in all the same. This omnibus includes the first three books in the Aisling Grimlock mystery series: Grim Tidings, Grim Offerings and Grim Discovery.

So funny!

This whole family makes me laugh. The relationships, the stories from their past, and the humor are very entertaining.

Great story line. Funny, snarky, and characters you love and some to hate.

My only complaint is the narration of the badass main character is too ‘little girly’. Other character voices are spot on. The Grimlock family is one that grows on you and I love them all.

Beware reader is 20!

I enjoyed this story but as I found out the reader is very annoying. I did realize after awhile it is told by a twenty year old and the voice sounded perfect. I would recommend this book.

Grimlocks

I love the Grimlocks. Getting to know them is fantastic. Can’t wait to see what happens next.

Aisling is pronounced "Ashling".

For the writer to choose this lovely old name, she should at least tell the narrator how to pronounce it. The Aisling Gray series by Katie McAllister is a good example of the correct way to use the name. It's grating to hear the nasally sound of A-is-ling, blech. "Ashling" is much better. Other than that the story is good so I've gotten the series, but if you ever update this, please change the name mispronounciation.

love the grimlocks.

I started with the only the lonely series (love all of them) with izzy and needed more grimlocks in my life , also wanted all their backstories. it took a little adjusting first because it's a different narrator from the izzy series and the voices are a different but after that its great! you actually get to know the characters especially aiden bc he barely talks in the other books. I was iffy at first bc so many complaints but I'm glad I ignored that.

A slow start but...

Slow start but it turns out to be such really wonderful books. I'm very impressed with the entire storyline.

Fun to listen to!

I wasn’t sure in the beginning if I’d like the narrator. But I was pleasantly surprised! I laughed several times during the three different books. One of the things I enjoy most about the author is how she expresses surprise or anger without really swearing. My favorite expression is “crap on toast”!!!!
