Grimnirs

By: Ednah Walters

Narrated by: Stephanie Terry

Length: 11 hrs and 3 mins

Publisher's Summary

Straight out of the psych ward, Cora just wants her life to be normal. She doesn't want to see souls or the reapers collecting them. The guy she's loved from a distance for years moves away without saying good-bye. So yes, she's nursing a serious heartbreak. It's no wonder love is the last thing on her mind when Echo storms into her life. The chemistry between them is mind blowing. The connection defies logic. Even better, the souls leave her alone when he is around. Too bad Echo is the poster boy for everything she hates in a guy - hot, beautiful, and cocky. He is also a soul reaper. A Grimnir. One of the very beings she wants out of her life. Maybe normal is overrated because Cora wants it all. Answers. Love. A life.

A great audiobook in an excellent series.

A great audiobook in an excellent series. The narrator brings the characters to life and the intense chemistry between Cora and Echo comes across loud and clear in this audiobook. Told mainly from Cora's (Raine's BFF) POV, the story concentrates predominantly on her character's development. It adds depth to the world the author is creating and still has enough plot to continue moving the main story forward. The narrator manages to capture the emotions and humour of the various characters, portraying excellently their individual personalities and attitudes. You cannot help but be drawn along with Cora as she falls for that sexy bad boy Echo, feel Eirik's hurt and Echo's frustration and vulnerability as he in turn falls for Cora. Ednah's great story line keeps you listening as Cora learns to cope with seeing souls, being hunted, loosing friends and finding love. I received this audiobook from the author in exchange for an honest review.

Great story... Maybe too much intimacy

So I loved the books about Raine and Torin and I loved the story about Cora but honestly but the love scenes were a bit much. Call me a prude but I wouldn't want my teen boys reading it

I believe the most memorable moment in Grimnirs would be how Stephanie Terry reads each character and the tone in her voice.

wow...you got to hear this amazing story

Would you listen to Grimnirs again? Why?

I would absolutely listen to it again. The books is amazing and the narrator did a fabulous job with the character voices. Its so worth hearing the story read.

Who was your favorite character and why?

All of the characters are awesome. My favorites are Torin and Echo. How can you resist such hot guys that would do anything for the ones they love.

Which character – as performed by Stephanie Terry – was your favorite?

Stephanie did an amazing job on all of the characters. Her accents really came out for each of her characters and none were the same. Its not often that a female can put out the male voices as well but she did a great job of it.

What would you do for a love that could transcends time, no matter what your flaws are!!

WOW

This story grabs your interest from the beginning and never let's go. It keeps you guessing and has many twists and turns. Makes me want to read the next book!

Awesome continuation of the Runes Series

I'm really enjoying reading this series & I look forward to reading the next book!

The Grim Reaper you want to meet

Thank you once again Edna Walters for a fascinating view of Helheim through "Grimnirs". Echo is my new favorite character in the Runes series. His persona at the first meeting is narcissistic and obnoxious, but after he let's his guard down and the reader gets to see him with his selflessness and weaknesses, you just want to hug his sorrows away. Besides the fact he's muscular and gorgeous.

Cora better hope he's being truthful or she's going to be heartbroken. Love the new developments in Cora's life and look forward to learning more about her future as an immortal.

Once again, Stephanie Terry brings this story to life brilliantly!

GREAT BOOK EDNAH WALTERS !! RUNES Fantastic again!

I love this series Torin and Raine are 2 lovebirds... But Cora and Echo are smokin HOT!!
WALTERS please keep writing and I will continue to read.

Better Voice for Cora, No Accent for Ingrid

Would you consider the audio edition of Grimnirs to be better than the print version?

It is difficult to say which is better, but I believe it is the print version that I prefer.

What other book might you compare Grimnirs to and why?

Rogue, by Karen Lynch. Sarah has gifts that no one else could have. She is strong, and determined. She can feel runic magic, and is trying to fit into a world she never knew about. This is very similar to Cora's experience.

Have you listened to any of Stephanie Terry’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have listened to four books in this series, all of which were narrated by Stephanie Terry. The voice that she gives to Cora, in the books told by Raine, is very annoying. However, the book told in Cora's voice is very agreeable. The only problem with THAT book is that Ingrid isn't given an accent.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I really had no extreme reaction to this book. It was enjoyable to listen to, but nothing extreme.

quite enjoyable

I like to find more than one series and read it in tandem with another great series. Thanks to quality writing and believable narration, I am a true follower of this series. I am truly grateful to the ladies ( characters and natural reading) for keeping my interest through the long drive to the in-laws.

Grimnirs

I loved the book as I had listened to the whole series, I was disappointed that the Narrator forgot to change her voice for the characters a few times, it didn't spoil the story but it did disappoint as you expect professional results when the books are being read.

Brilliant!!

Echo and Cora are a brilliant duo....this third book is from Coras view point and the change works really well....the story is fun and full of action....lots of romance too!!another great book in the series ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
