Customer Reviews

Very enjoyable!!!

I would have liked to learn the backstory behind the demons, but otherwise this was a really entertaining book. Took a little time to get going, but once it did, there was no stopping it!! I loved how Mr. Urbancik described the Gargoyle's flights around NYC, and the battles that took place with the demons. Most importantly I enjoyed the Gargoyle's character arc and his reasons for redemption. I look forward to the author's next novel - I hope it's as engrossing as this one!!!

Stone Prison

This is a solid first book from an aspiring Author. The story is new and fresh and it kept me intrigued through out the entire book. I didn't find a single dull spot and I actually finished it within a day. I will not give anything about the story away just know that I highly recommend this one whether you're a fan of horror or not. Also recommend The Eternal Battle by another aspiring author Keith Gouveia.

A Writer To Watch

John Urbancik proves himself a writer to watch with his debut novel, Sins of Blood and Stone. The book walks the line between dark fantasy and horror. While religion is featured prominently in this book, this book blurs the line between good and evil and forces us to look deep inside ourselves to see where we might fit in this balance.Not all mysteries in this book are answered, and that is not a bad thing. I wish that some of the characters had been drawn out more--I wanted to know more about them--and there were other, minor flaws, but Sins is a brilliant introduction to the writing of John Urbancik. I'm really looking forward to Urbancik's next book.
