Chronicle In Pursuance Of Books Poltergeist (Greywalker #2)
Harper Blaine was your average small-time PI until she died - for two minutes. Now she's a Greywalker - walking the thin line between the living world and the paranormal realm. And she's discovering that her new abilities are landing her all sorts of "strange" cases.In the days leading up to Halloween, Harper's been hired by a university research group that is attempting to create an artificial poltergeist. The head researcher suspects someone is faking the phenomena, but Harper's investigation reveals something else entirely - they've succeeded. And when one of the group's members is killed in a brutal and inexplicable fashion, Harper must determine whether the killer is the ghost itself, or someone all too human.

I read the first book in this urban fantasy series a few years ago: it did not leave much of an impression. Recently, when someone abandoned books 2-4 in the staff canteen, I decided to give the series another go. (It was that or read Tom Clancy. Save me from that!) This book, second in the Greywalker series, follows bland private investigator Harper Blaine. Harper is a new "greywalker" - one who can slip into the shadowy world/substance where the vampires, ghosts and ghoulies hide - and sheReviewed by: Rabid ReadsId like to start this review off by first saying that Im not 100% sure whether its the narration or the story thats making me consistently rate this series 3 stars, so you might want to take my thoughts with a grain of salt until I figure that one out. Anyway, I think that I enjoyed this installment slightly less than its predecessor on account of all the psycho babble & lengthy experiment explanations. I felt like I was back in college listening to a professor drone
Glad I stumbled on this series. Really enjoyable and easy to read.
Not as good as the first in the series. Felt mired down in learning how poltergeist entities manifest and moving through "the grey". And I didn't find the characters all that interesting. And one thing I thought was missing in the book was the mention of Phoebe attending the funeral. You'd think that someone who was so distressed by a "family member" being murdered would be at the funeral and that Harper would see her and they would comfort each other or something. Don't remember any mention at
this one was just ok for me. I felt like it dragged on in the beginning and then I lost interest and couldn't pull myself to sit and finish it so it took me forever to get through. but once I did get closer to the end more of her powers were revealed and it was easier to get into. finally after a book and a half our heroine finally gets the idea of what she's doing. I like that better than her flailing around clueless in "the grey"
At the start let me say that I liked this book. It has an interesting perspective on the whole supernatural urban fantasy slant as the main character is not a vampire, witch or shapeshifter, which are the common character tropes out there. Instead Harper Blaine, after a near death experience, is able to perceive the Gray, the sub layer filled with people's auras, ghosts and other oddities. Blaine, who is a PI, is hired by Professor Tuchman to investigate a parapsychology experiment in which
