Harper Blaine was your average small-time P.I. until a two-bit perp's savage assault left her dead for two minutes. When she comes to in the hospital, she sees things that can only be described as weird-shapes emerging from a foggy grey mist, snarling teeth, creatures roaring.But Harper's not crazy.

And her new gift is about to drag her into that strange new realm-whether she likes it or not.

I'm sad to say that I lemmed Greywalker at 84%. It's the first time in many, many, many years that I couldn't face finishing a book. I was actually really drawn in at the beginning and found the concept of the Grey really intriguing, but the plot went all sorts of downhill from there. The characters are all really flat, and Harper was so one-dimensional I found her scenes painfully awkward to read. You know nothing about her backstory really, and her whole persona simple revolves around her2.5 stars, rounded up because the series has potential (I hope)- - - - - - - - -I enjoyed the first half of Greywalker more than the second: I think the author is getting her head around the paranormal world (The Grey) she creates through the first half and hasn't quite gotten a handle on getting the rest of us into this world. I have high hopes for the next book but still think this is a worthy read.The opening scene is one of the truest descriptions of a violent encounter that I've read in a
When Harper Blaine dies for two minutes something happens. She doesn't remember dying, and in fact, had to be told that she did by a doctor. She sees things out of the corners of her eyes like a mist, or fog. She finds finds out that what she's seeing is the Grey. The Grey is the energy between death and moving on. Other things live there too, like ghosts and vampires and other things Harper never believed in. While working a case, (she's a PI) Harper ends up tangling with vampires, and if she
Im late in reading this, but I liked it. I like paranormal stories, (of course there are very few genres I dont like) so I was predestined to like this book. In the beginning our heroine dies, for a few minutes. When she wakes up in the hospital her world has changed. Now she can see into the netherworld. She can interact with ghosts and supernatural beings. Although this seems like it would be helpful in her PI business, she seems to have a tough time trying to deal with the grey world. So,
Harper Blaine is a PI who in the first few pages of this book gets attacked and badly beaten. She dies for two minutes and when she comes back she can walk through The Grey. The origin of all the things that go bump in the night.There are interesting elements in the worldbuilding but because the protagonist spends the first 80% of the book alternating between flailing around in The Grey or simply denying everything as hard as she possibly can it's hard to see the mist for the fog. This is not
It's very hard to write a helpful review of Graywalker. It simply didnt leave any kind of impression on me good or bad. The first half was far more interesting than the second. It had the tone of a hardboiled detective novel and it was quite refreshing, so I was more than a little disappointed when it all went straight to hell in the other half. Harper Blaine is a good, strong character, but some of her choices werent quite clear to me, and the love story (well, lust story, to be precise) was
