Grey Stone

De: Jean Knight Pace, Jacob Kennedy

Narrado por: Tom Howery

In the land of the great red sun, dogs sing, wolves kill, humans serve, and wolf-shifters rule with magic and menace. Pietre is a human boy who has spent the last 13 years afraid of the sunset, the Blødguard, and the wolf-shifting masters who rule his world. Wittendon is a werewolf prince who has spent the last 19 years afraid of his father, his inability to do magic, and the upcoming tournament he's sure to lose. But when Pietre finds an orphaned pup in the woods and Wittendon is forced to arrest the boy's father soon after, both of them begin to realize that keeping the rules might be just as terrifying as breaking them.

Now serf and master must learn to cut through their own prejudices and work together in order to turn their world before it turns on them. Grey Stone is a story of dogs who talk, wolves who kill, and a stone that - for better or worse - can change all that.

GREY STONE

A UNIQUE FUN STORY. FILLED WITH ADVENTURE, AND UNEXPECTED TURNS . NARRATOR DID A GOOD JOB AS WELL

Very good read

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Really interesting. I think this book is supposed to be the first of the Grey books. I liked this one better than Grey Lore but both books are good. This is a great adventure for a young boy and his dog. They are werewolves, cats, shifters, witches and dogs. My favorite part is when Humphrey the dog plays in a match of mud ball! That was fun. There are lots things happening in the book. There are two main sides the kings side and the other side. The king can be cruel and kind. But the Prince eventually comes to the conclusion that his father will do anything to secure his reign as king. Sedora is my favorite character. She wants what’s right and true with the least amount of bloodshed. She believes that everyone can work to get along. It may not be easy but it is worth it. And finding the right people for her cause to help fulfill the prophecy is her quest.
Lots of twists and turns, make sure to pay attention to the tiny details. Very good book!

Compelling YA Fantasy

I enjoyed this first book in "The Grey" series. The worldbuilding was complex and intricate. I liked the varied races that interacted within the confines of this clever fantasy. I liked that humans played a role in events but weren't the featured race. I enjoyed the magic and magical instances. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. Tom Howery's narration was fine, and his voice was pleasant. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

A Tangled Web Woven

Parents- PG13 - pretty clean but geared towards middle to high schoolers and up
Language- PG not a lot and no f-bombs
Violence- PG13 some fighting but nothing too graphic
Sexual Content- PG- More or less mentions of dog and wolf mating and a relationship out of wedlock but no details given

Interesting that this is more from the animal perspective (dog and wolf / werewolf). This has so many different POV and reads a bit slow and drawn out to the point that it lost my attention several times. Each of the POV tangle their own subplots into one bigger plot of basically wanting to overthrow the corrupt government and King... Although it really took a while to put it all together. There's a lot of action points that keep this moving but aspects of the story felt a little odd with the way the magic, human / wolf elements worked and then the two gods also fit in funny. The world building was great and really brought the backdrop to life. I don't know, the story or the characters just never connected with me. I can see it appealing to the middle grade fantasy and animal reader.

Narrator- 2.5 ⭐ Not the best differentiations between voices but it's a pleasant voice to listen to. I preferred listening at 1.35x speed.
