Grimm: Nate Temple Series Book 3

Grimm: A Novel In The Nate Temple Supernatural Thriller Series (The Temple Chronicles #3) by Shayne Silvers is such an awesome book! So were the others but this one had me worried there for a bit in the book, DON'T DO THAT TO YOUR READERS, SOME HAVE WEAK HEARTS!!! Man, I love these books. On to read the next one...they are soooo freaking addictive. Weres, vamps, Death, Angels, a Minotaur, and fairies, and .... you get the picture. I don't think you really do unless you read the books because they are NOT what you imagine. Not in the least. Come, join the Nate Temple team, we are all strange here but boy do we love it!!!!!

Nate Temple is a great urban wizard. These books run by fast, but the characters sizzle. The action is a flat out foot race start to finish. The universe is equal to the Butcher universe and the characters may actually be superior. What it may lack is character development. But I for one will certainly give them a chance. Billionaire playboy super heroes maybe a bit over done, but give this series a chance. It really is an excellent urban fantasy world and a quick fun read. An amazing combination of science, myth, magic and explosive violent conflict with a deep beating heart of human frailty and redemption.

Nate continues to be Nate, and that's a good thing. He's still adjusting to his new Maker power and trying to get the love of his life to agree to forever, but ancient enemies don't seem inclined to give him the time to figure it all out. This book contains pretty much non-stop action. So much happens that not all of it can be satisfactorily explained and I'm pretty sure that some of the explanations given were part conjecture and will prove not quite accurate in the future. Which means, of course, that there's nothing left to do but read the next story as soon as possible to find out what was wrong, what was right, and what the fallout is going to be.

I did get this book for free and am writing a genuine review. I am a big fan of the Sandman slim and Dresden files books. i powered through them, then through all, as well as, the game of thrones books. Looking for something to occupy my time I found this starter set. It has the urban wizard in modern times, tying to do the right thing, theme. Of course the antagonist get in the way of the rich wizard, who just want to have a good time and not get bored. It was a good first book to set the stage and character build. I quickly read this and the second book, which I like even better. Doesn't everyone love a smart ass wizards who does not play by the rules, and nearly get himself killed! Also, as a rich playboy he seems to have a wondering eye with the ladies. Unlike Dresden who contemplates do all the wrong things before choosing the right path, or Sandman Slim who uses the power of Satan to do the right thing, Master Temple consistently looks to do the right thing, but has more resources than these other wizards. It gives it a different dynamic, yet fun and exciting. I enjoyed it enough that I am currently reading the third book..

I received the first two books free. I was looking for a new series to hold me over till the next book in the one I was reading came out. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I really like this series :-) Shayne Silvers has a way with words! I was so into them I had to go back and buy the next one, can't wait for the newest installment. It's not often I come across someone, real or fictional that has a more snarky attitude than me but Nate Temple is worlds ahead of me! The characters are believable (sometimes lovable ;-) and the action kept me on the edge of my seat.

I really like this series. Its creative, fast paced and each book is it's own story. Single POV. The only complaint I have, is he gets is arse handed to him every book, every fight. Can't something go right for him? In this book, Nate faces the brothers Grimm. They are fanatical hunters of all magical beings. It is a fight to the death and important people die.

I thought it was very interesting how the Grimms were portrayed in this book. Definitely not what you expect from reading the fairytales. I guess that’s what happens when you get locked away in the dark for so long. Even though the Grimms wanted to kill anything with magic, they didn’t hesitate to use magic to their advantage. They really screwed Nate over in this book but they got theirs in the end. In this book, freaks that are normally enemies came together to fight to rid the world of the Grimms.

After reading four books which are best if you start with the free book Fairy Tales, which gives you a bit of the background such as why he owns a rare book store. But by the time I finished Grimm? The ending was a killer shot out of home field like I did not see that happening!! It makes sense I guess, but why her? No spoiler, you read the all 3 books to know who HER is. But I will say this, he does a whole different spin to fairy tales which I think is why this book and the two before it, Blood Debts and the first one Obsidian Son just was such a blast to read! Everyone knows fairy tales by the brothers Grimm right? Well remember them now, because you will never see them the same again 😀 after reading this book I bought all three on my Kindle before I was lucky enough to win signed copies. To answer The author," I want to party with Nate too!!" Please hurry up and get the next book done, you are killing me!! I can't wait!!

Love these books, page turner all the way

I can't wait to have lived through the entire series while at the same time wanting to savour every moment of every instalment! Absolutely incredible and can not recommend enough, if you haven't read these and you like ypur fantasy then this is what you NEED to be reading!

An excellent chapter in the series. It makes waiting for the next Dresden files novel a lot easier to bear.

So where do I start... Oh. Yeah! Magic, bad guys. New characters. More bad guys. New magic. Nasty bad guys. (I think you get the idea) You know. I love Nate, he's a great guy. Shayne! For the love of Templeverse, can you give the man a break? And no. I don't mean a KITKAT. I've never in my life (besides my own, actually) known anyone to have the crappiest luck, that this poor guy is dealt. Ok. Hands up. He gets to be the hero and all that but gee whiz, I'd need a shrink after all the stuff he's been through. -Big sigh- My reviews, which are rather impressive, from time to time, (just kidding) I try to make them unique. Most readers spoil a novel by giving away 'EVERYTHING '. PERSONALLY, I just want new blood to know, that for me, I loved reading this instalment of your world. I laughed. And yes, damn it, you made me cry! Are you happy now? -inserts happy face while skipping off to the next book-💖

I would like to give this a 4-1/2 but can't do that. This is the third in the Nate Temple series. It was so good that I read through until almost 4am to finish it. This supernatural book includes almost all paranormal creatures that exist in a cohesive mystery and adventure trying to save the 'regulars' from all the evil. Nate discovers history of his family and this helps him do what is necessary to continue the fight with his supernatural and regular friends. Can't wait to read the next book.
