You can’t run from destiny.

Gavin Randall hasn’t been home in nearly 30 years. Upon his return, he steps into a world he never knew existed and awakens dormant powers to discover that he’s one of the rarest beings in the supernatural community - a Stone Born. Now his very existence is a threat to the established order.

A mysterious death pulls him in further, forcing him to face off against family and foe alike. Gavin must reconcile the past he knew with a strange world of magic, along the way encountering new creatures and dangers he’s never experienced.

Will Gavin discover the truth? Or will this new world swallow him whole before he uncovers who he really is and who wants his uncle dead?

Interesting lore & perspective

The author’s perspective of historical characters and creativity made the story somewhat interesting. I wish that had carried over to the various plots as many were unimaginative and predictable. I’ll purchase book 2 as it may be that this initial book was simply the setup and the other books leave the predictable and become more engaging
.

this should be a movie.

extremely entertaining. they should make it into a movie. just add the next two books and itd be a hit.

Addicting

read these in the author's order! This one first. I love this series and the rich tapestry of urban fantasy. Gavin is bad ass and awesome!

So Good!

It's rare that I find an Urban Fantasy novel/series, completely out of the blue, like this! I usually go for stuff that's been heavily recommended by other respected authors or narrators. This author hit all of my favorite tropes, and still managed to throw in some surprises! The narrator had a little bit of a rocky start, but came into his own within a few chapters, and despite some weird breathing in the beginning, managed to completely win me over within a few chapters. This book was superb, on all levels, especially for a new-to-me author and narrator! Well done!
