      I regret there is not a negative star rating for the absolutely boring, self serving and unrealistic view of any family's life. If there were more corn syrup in this book, all readers would be in diabetic shock. I would expect my high school creative writing group to do far better.

      Synopsis: Stone has a son; he's 16 and stinkin' smart. Peter knows he wants to work in the film industry and make it without relying on his step-father's name. Stone and Arrington get married and things are going well. However, the architect of Arrington's house wants her and doesn't care how he gets her; this leads to harsh words and repeated rejections. Finally, Arrington is murdered and the architect is suspected, but he escapes. He then tries to kill Peter, but Joan steps in and saves the day.Review: Interesting story, easily readable, and couldn't put it down.

      This was a weird one. The writing was completely devoid of emotion to the point of being frightening. The book is mostly about restraint and wealth, many pages dealing with the dealings of the rich and privileged. Not recommended.

      This was a great Barrington yarn, though surely sad in parts. It was great being introduced to Stone's Son.

      Wooden characters with no emotion what-so-ever. This book reads like an instruction manual on how the rich and famous live. I kept waiting for a plot to develop, but it never happened. a very light and disappointing read.

      This book is misnamed--it should be "As the Stomach Turns"--as it was 95% soap opera and 5% mystery. Another title could be: "Lives of the Rich and Famous in New York". I especially enjoyed the part where the Virginia sheriff asked for a clarification of "uptown" and "downtown" in NYC; stated by one of the characters as if the other 99.9% of the world should know the difference. This book lives barely above DNF (did not finish) only because I continued on wondering if ever there would be a mystery. Yes, it happened and was solved in the last 45 minutes of the audio book. Stuart Woods can do much better than this.

      Um, no....read this quickly, but this book strains all bounds of reality. I've overlooked a lot of (stuff) in past Woods books and enjoyed the novels (some more than others), but this one was just one lottery winning moment after another and about halfway through the book I was just laughing at each additional perfect moment created in the world of Stone Barrington. By the time some tragedy showed up later in the book, it just had no impact whatsoever. If this continues, I'll have to lump these books in with my Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett books under satire.

      After an eventful trip to Bel-Air and a reunion with his sophisticated (and very wealthy) former love, Arrington Calder, confirmed bachelor Stone Barrington is looking to stay in New York and cash in on his partnership at Woodman & Weld. Not only is he a rainmaker of one of the riches white-shoe law firms in town, he’s back in his element. Manhattan, after all, is his home, and no one is better than Stone at navigating both its shadowy underworlds and its chic society. But Arrington has other plans for Stone, and his life is about to take a turn he never imagined...

      This book was so bad I went back and looked at other Woods' books I have read over the years - back six years actually - and see I have read six of them, the earlier ones I really liked. The last two I didn't like and this one was so bad I refuse to finish. I see my ratings have steadily gotten worse. Son of Stone has an ultra stupid plot and totally unreal characters and unnecessarily profane. Stone should either quit writing or start over. Sorry, but that's a fact.

      not your typical S Woods book...until the end and then it is a bit rushed to get the story line in... murder, solved... set up for future books... still a page turner...

      This was the best book Stuart Woods wrote in the Barrington Series. It is not your standard Barrington book with him salving a problem. It is a story with Barrington finding a new part of him self.
