House of Stone edition by Vaughn R Demont Romance eBooks

Richard Firemane is many things. He is Lord of the House of Stone. He is a Knight of the Realm. He is Viscount of the Benedict Shores. He is custodian of the Azure Blade. He is a blue-blooded Fae.

He’s also the star of the Assmaster series, a production of Blue Line Studios. And, apparently, he’s very good.

I loved the odd, wry, modern world in which Vaughn Demont has placed his anti-hero. I loved that he has disguised a very American city (given the Blue Line clue, possibly Chicago?) with Fae names, because the Fae care little for the human world and its geopolitics. I love Lord Stone’s snarky, world-weary language. He is, on the surface, a self-indulgent, callow young man who cares little for others.

The Fae live in their own dream world, and indeed are defined by the dreams of humans from whom they draw their existence, while providing humans with wonder and beauty in turn. The only humans who can see the Fae are those who are the progeny of interbreeding, and these half-bloods are shunned by the Fae, aristocracy and commoners alike. Richard is cared for by his half-human (and hence tainted) servant, Simaron Gray. Sim is appalled by his master’s lack of respect for Fae protocol; Richard finds Sim to be sexually convenient and enjoys irritating him.

Fae protocol is deeply rooted in honor and shame, in inherited prestige and rigid social hierarchy. While Richard may be gay—like many Fae nobles—he also must follow tradition and get married to produce an heir. When Richard is finally forced to marry a bride he’s never met, his haphazardly constructed life begins to unravel. As his true feelings for Sim begin to surface, a deadly subterfuge emerges, and the feckless Richard Firemane finds himself in a battle for everything he holds dear.

An excellent, moving and gripping fantasy, spiced with humor and tenderness.

House of Stone edition by Vaughn R Demont Romance eBooks Reviews


So, on the surface, as you may be reading the blurb for this story, you may be thinking, "Porn actor? Swords? Pearl Jam? Fae?! Shyeah, right." Just stop right there, don't even do the eye roll. This story is not your fourth-cousin-thrice-removed's `urban fantasy'. It is, in fact, a cleverly crafted piece of fiction.

Let's get right to it he calls him Sim, and he "punishes" Sim by having Sim call him Richard. We'd had a few really good laps up to this point in the book, but this truly gets us off to the races. This is when I felt a wee bit of... glee. Yes, ok? Glee. I felt glee. Don't even look at me like that, it's true and you'll feel it, too. HA.

When you build your own world, especially one that is a mix of highly recognizable "our world" details and those of total fantasy, your rules must be strong, ironclad in their believability and consistency. Well done, author, well done. Why is this important? Because if that all isn't there, you don't get the tension, the consequences, the relief and joy when resolutions come. You don't feel that right to be protective of this story and the people who make up its constantly changing rippling patterns of life. HA.

I like surprises in my books, I love not knowing what's going to happen, that the story is written so that I have very little chance of figuring things out much before any character does the same. This also goes for unexpected emotion from a story that is filled with fun, snark, sarcasm, sexy banter and glowing swordplay. Yup, I like me some surprises and I gots `em here. HA.

When I think about what must have been the flowchart for this book, the mind reels and embraces the giddy. And yet, it's not overwhelming, like when you feel no hope of keeping it all straight. Somehow, someway, I could follow the lines, crazy curves and all. I both enjoyed the experience and felt a sense of accomplishment, not unlike our man Richard, in a rare moment of victory and comprehension of the twisted nature of his City.

The surprises keep happening all the way through to the very end. There is one thing that we are not given, as a reward, and it would have been intense, incredible and indulgent perfection. All good, yeah? However, and I can't believe I'm saying this, but to have included it would have slowed down the story, lessened the tension that vibrates through everything. So, from an editing standpoint, it was the better choice, even if it "robbed" me of that pure pleasure that it would have been.

The writing style fits the story, I never felt a mismatch. The dialogue flows and never felt halting or ever removed me from the story. The point of view completely drew me in and kept me there, made me a part of the whole shebang. Very smart.

You know how when you get to the end of a story, and you think back to how and where it all began, and you can't believe you got to experience all of this in the span of a few hours, by reading? Proper storytelling, people. Reading IS fundamental. That is this book. Despite my "I wuz rawbbed" moment, I honestly can't think of anything that disappointed or felt out of place or wasn't connected inside the story or made me tilt my head and think, "huh... ok..." or anything like that.

So, for me, I think I have to make this a five-star, would definitely re-read, almost a comfort read type book because it was that kind of reading adventure.
