A nice quick read, although I did find this story quite ‘bitty’. Also I’m not really interested in Maria, but she seemed to be taking up an inordinate amount of the book, I hope she isn’t going to become a major character in the series.

Kindle Unlimited, while I like the titles and they're pretty good etc, the 'Indiana Jones' Raiders of the Lost Ark sydrome {'bad guys/endings} that is totally not doing it, did someone run out of time to finish the book or something, I mean really, both times, leaning to 4 based on yet another 4 1/2 which no such thing, if get even hint of '4-ish' again will go with that.

5 Through Buckets Of Blood And Piles Of Bullets Stars

When Angel's Cry is the sixth book in The Unbelievable Mr. Brownstone series by Michael Anderle.

This was a very sweet addition to the series. So very heartwarming to get to know Trey more, and see the positive impact James' help had on his life. That it's already started to expand further, in allowing him to be able to bring his fractured family back together, and help his aunt is simply the beginning. I can only see the Blackstone company branching out, and being recognized as a totem of good within the world.

I feel like Maria Hall simply keeps digging herself deeper. I keep waiting for her to fail, or evolve. The fact that some decent people, and maybe even innocents could get caught in the crossfire hills me back from truly wishing for something horrible. But I hope that she's caught in her deepening corruption. Or put in a position where she needs Brownstone's help and has to debase herself with the asking.

I wonder if there will more on the business with the Anders Laboratory? If we'll see any further information or plots around corrupt scientists experimenting on unwilling humans? Or something in the realm of splitting genes? There might even be some backlash from the Mafia in Las Vegas, since they were the money behind the operation. But mostly I hope we see more of Dina, the little angel already won me over.

What was up with all of the twisted demonic dialogue both of the antagonists were sporting this entire book? It's obvious why Red Eyes was off his rocker given his torture at the hands of the laboratory, but what about Tessa? She repeatedly called people ghosts? Thought she wasn't actually killing anyone because ghosts aren't alive. Is there gonna be more psychotics of this magnitude in the future? What about the other experiment victims? What will become of them?

James has a few days spare, from doing anything important, in his Bounty business, while Shay is off doing her mysterious doings.

After thoroughly cleaning his new-built home, despite it not actually needing it, James is then left with nothing to do, and is getting very bored of it, so he decides to take a trip to Vegas, to visit his favourite Barbecue place.

He only takes the bare minimum of armament with him, as he isn't planning to do any Bounty hunting while there.

But James' plans are changed when a monstrous, shadowy, red-eyed killer, starts stalking the dark alleys and side streets of Vegas, and choosing parents as his victims - killing them in cold blood, in front of their young children.

James wasn't having innocent children being made orphans, as he'd spent his life as one, so he begins a long, and complex, journey to find, and permanently stop, whatever this monster is!

I loved that Trey was more involved in this story. He's certainly come far from the punk gang leader that he was, when he first met James, and it looks like he's going to become a great lieutenant for James' budding new Bounty Hunter business, too.

I'm really happy that more of the characters are getting involved in James, and Shay's lives and, just as I'd hoped, in my previous review, there's more of their emotional life together written in the story.

I'm one happy bunny reading these three series together - with a fourth, then a fifth one, joining in fairly soon.

I can't wait to go on to my next book - which is Alison's SofNM series!

I'm now going to start reading book three: 'Bright Is Her Sight', which sounds intriguing, and I'm off to start reading it, just as soon as I finish this review.

Once I do, I'll catch you on the flip side, to let you know what I think of Alison's latest book!

3 1/2 stars. The books are a bit addictive. I am definitely bingeing them. What keeps the books interesting is that the characters grow. They are changing and more people are being introduced slowly. Normally I would want there to be more focus on Shay or Alison because we don't know that much about them through this series but since they have their own series that is taken care of.

I wish there was a little bit more time spent on Red Eyes. His ability to incorporate DNA from other beings and make himself more lethal was different but it wasn't explored to the potential. He didn't show enough of evolving powers that would make him a real threat to Brownstone. More time showing his abilities would have been interesting and heightened the tension of the fight.

Another amazing book!

I love how the brownstone family is growing! The characters are developing and having mini story's of their own with in the brownstone book. Great read!! More brownstone!! No, I mean it, if there was anything I would say about this books is that it did need more Brownstone. It felt like he was just a bit of a filler in this book but it was great non the less to see how all the other secondary characters are developing and we need more Shay too. I don't know if your purposefully keeping her on the DL because she has her own series but if she is brownstone girl, she needs to be more present

Love this series!

This book was a gift so soon after the last one. There is so much more character development, many laughs and much head scratching as James deals with the 2 women in his life. I absolutely love this series! The tightrope James walks with law enforcement, his ties to his church, his inherent sense of duty and loyalty, his background...so many more stories to be told! I can't wait! And, I think we may have BBQ competitions in future books!! 5 stars! Don't miss this fabulous story!

Action packed awesome Siri’s

As it says an action-packed urban fantasy action adventure series. And outstanding cast of characters in a world where magic has returned. James brown stone is a bounty Hunter who chases down extreme magical bounties and kicks butt. This is one series in a group of different series written by multiple authors that have crossovers with characters intermingling between all the cerise and making appearances
All of them are awesome and you need to check them out

James vs. The Mutant

All James wants is some God sauce from Jessie Ray's but his number one recruit, Trey is in Vegas on family business and it soon turns into Brownstone business. A lot of good action with Brownstone and Trey in this book. I am thinking Trey and the Brownstone Agency need their own spinoff Mr. Anderle! Lt. Hall has her own problems in LA,a level five on the loose, so she turns to questionable help to get the job done. Will her new experience help her to understand Brownstone better? I wish but I highly doubt it.

A little bit different than your average action-packed Brownstone novel. This one had a larger focus on an important part of life, Family. It was nice to see a change of pace with it. It was still full of action scenes, but not nearly the over-the-top level some of the other novels had.

Overall, really a good read. The extra POV was a nice touch. Not only is this book worth reading, but the whole series up to this point has really hit the mark. I look forward to the next novel in the series, whenever it is I get to read it.

The series gets better with each new book.

James Brownstone seems to get more real as the series goes on. Shay does not play a big part in this book, but her and Alison both are always in Brownstone's mind where they belong. James makes a Bar-B-Que run to his favorite place in Las Vegas and gets roped into a class 4 bounty who is a experiment gone wrong from a secret labratory,....... really good book..... waiting for next book.......

Great Fun Read

Brownstone is at loose ends with no bounty on the line. What to do. What to do. Well there is great barbeque in Vegas. This plus Trey finding out that he has a long lost relative there and bounties create interesting times. I like the action, snarky humor, and a bit of romance with James trying to figure out the women in his life. I look forward to the next book.

Fun and entertaining

Tessa and Red Eyes were interesting villains but really need more development especially of their backgrounds. Lt Hall of the AET continues to be a good counterpoint to Brownstone. Brownstones alien abilities and physicality need more exposition especially more explicit accounts of his sex life with Shay and why Shay finds her relationship with Brownstone so exciting and satisfying. Also what does James think about his relationship with Shay.

Great book

James is still kicking butt in this book but seems to have matured a bit, Shay is a good influence. Trey is developing into a great character and shares almost half of this book with James. It is interesting to see where the author is maybe taking this series with musings from Trey are credible. Still a fun read with still good BBQ all a round. I’m planing a trip to Vegas just to try this place out. Happy reading.

This was a very dark book, I loved it. The murderer is a twisted evil soul who enjoys making children cry and traumatising them. I loved when we got Red Eye's POV throughout the story and wish there were more. There was so much Maria in this book and I'm going to say this straight out but I don't like her, she was far too prominent in this book. Those pages could have been used as more POV for Red Eyes.

When Readers cry

Nooo! I need more Brownstone! Michael ALWAYS brings great characters and story! If you haven’t been reading books from the ORICERAN and KURTHERIAN UNIVERSES, you’ve missed a ton of good books, great characters, and amazing authors! Creative, imaginative, and fun reads. Loving the expanding stories of Trey.

Love me some Brownstone

All about the importance of family and doing something for the right reasons. Walking smile on the other person's shoes and realizing that your views are not always the right or only ones. Caring...

Good book

I was a little conflicted , gave it 5 stars , but it wasn't the action packed , kick ass Brownstone in the first 5 books. There was some character development , though. Also , there was no Shay , not the same without her

Unbeatable Brownstone!

Terrific book yet again by the unbeatable Michael Anderle. Happy to have him solo (mostly) in this one. Curious as to what the next best down will be. Fun and fast read.

Underlying themes

What makes this book so satisfying is some of the characters moving forward from negative and lonely lives to personally fulfilling lifestyles. Emotionally moving.

Another great Brownstone book!

I like where the series is going and I can’t wait to see what happens next! Small note: Trey could never have been a “hood rat” and ended up gang leader and would take extreme offense at being called one!

"Hooray! Very few smirks, he smirked "

On the up side, this book's emphasis on family brought tears to my eyes a couple times (no, no spoilers). On the downside, the secondary plotline seemed more detached than usual.
