About this listen

Sunshine Walkingstick is half mountain, half Cherokee, and 100% monster hunter. Join her in these three adventures as she takes on monsters unknown and inhuman, and a few wearing familiar faces.

Book 1, Greenwood Cove:
Sunny is challenged by a childhood friend to discover the cause behind damage done to docks along Lake Burton's Greenwood Cove, and she's never one to resist a challenge when monsters are involved.

Book 2, The Deep Wood:
Sunny’s search for a monster terrorizing the county leads her into a past she never knew, and a secret that changes everything.

Book 3, Cemetery Hill:
After her uncle is framed for murder, Sunny must figure out who, or what, really killed his ex-wife before someone else falls victim to a vicious monster.

Meet Sunshine Walkingstick in these three action-packed urban fantasy adventures in the tradition of the Jane Yellowrock Series (Faith Hunter) and the Mercy Thompson Series (Patricia Briggs).

This was so incredibly dull. I love Jane Yellowrock so thought I’d give this book a go, but although there are many parallels this is nowhere near the same type of story. It sounds harsh, but for starters the heroine is just too simple minded. The world she lives in is very simple too. The stories just plodded along, and you’d get a little action at the end. However, there were so many things that could have been amazing if the author had delved a little deeper. I found myself so bored that I nearly turned it off a few times, but instead browsed for my next read whilst listening to it instead. They talk of supernatural stuff but barely touch on it, and the heroine just sort of blunders into situations and doesn’t plan anything. Most of the story is just her doing everyday boring stuff. Then she’ll spend ages researching books for some answers. Each story was the same in that respect. I found the relationship development frustrating too, with talking of their history really limited in detail, and the building trust and her worries really tiresome. This was nearly two stars, but there was promise if it had more work, so I’ll round it up.

2.5 stars - dull, and no Jane Yellowrock

I am not a big review writer and I am writing this review after almost a month after listening to it. I simply had to come back and say- it stuck with me! More often than not, I forget if I read/listened to something and I have to read a blurb to remind myself. But that is definitely not case with Sunshine Walkingstick!
But to start from the beginning: book one is probably weakest in the series due to couple of reasons. One being it starts a bit slow, and it takes time to get to know all characters, get the sense of surroundings etc. Second one is the language use. As a non-native English speaker I would have probably given up on the book, if I had read it. But the narrator is perfectly chosen, as she really brings Sunshine to life and makes her sound, after a while, like she is just using a different accent.
Book two is already better with action, is not slow and we already know and root for some characters.
Book three is fantastic!
Not all questions are resolved and hopefully there will be more books in the upcoming months.I really want to know what is that critter and happened with Henry's ghost.
I recommend this to Jane Yellowrock fans, Mercy Thompson and similar. With strong female lead, good overarching storyline, once you pass the language barrier, and a slower first book, you will love it!

Perfect new series!

Not bad but not wonderful either, Book 1 was especially slow paced and I think that they may have seemed slower paced than they really are because of the constant Southern backwoods drawl. It wasn't that the narration was bad but I just found that it really grated.

There are the elements of a good urban fantasy story and I think it definitely improves in Books 2 and 3. However I do have reservations. I found Sunshine's character annoying, she was really quite whiny, and written in the 1st person that comes across very strongly. There was a constant internal monologue about what a horrible person she was, character flaws out the wazoo, how everyone puts her down and she totally buys into that, constant references to her sainted Henry and her attitude toward men and sex was faintly ridiculous. So the ongoing love interest really doesn't work, in either direction because of her ongoing attitude and his somewhat insane jealousy. Plus there seem to be a couple of sub-plots that never really go anywhere, although maybe there's an intention to deal with that in the future.

So, I would really recommend listening to the audio sample to see if you can tolerate the narration.

Not Bad
