Summary: Don't waste your time and money!
Review: As a fan of time-travel books I'm wondering why I'm even giving this one star. There was no substance to the story just lots of fluf. I'm sorry, but there is no way someone arrives in the 20th Century from the 14th Century and takes everything in stride as the two main characters did in this story. How does Viviene get a paycheck without a SS#? AND she and Niall can read modern-day English with no trouble? It wasn't very realistic. Also, I don't like stories that make sure EVERYONE in the story has found a love in the last 5 pages!

Summary: Entertaining time travel romance
Review: In 1390 Britain, Sir Niall of Malloy loathes escorting prisoners to their death, but loathes it even more when a female requires his convoy, which is his present task. He accompanies Viviane to certain death for witchery. Viviane asks him to take her to see the Archbishop of Cantlecroft, but he cannot being a lowly dungeon guard. Finally, realizing her plight, Viviane wishes upon her father's stone to be as far away from where she is as possible. In a flash, she vanishes leaving behind the moonstone. The Archbishop charges Niall to complete his duty. Before leaving, Niall says good-bye to his sister and her children. Meanwhile Viviane lands in 1999 where a local resident Monty Sullivan adopts her. Niall uses the moonstone and follows her into the late twentieth century. Viviane decides that Niall his her hero and savior. Soon Niall and Viviane fall in love, but he swore allegiance to a fourteenth century archbishop. Niall knows if he takes his beloved Viviane back home, she dies. If he fails to return with her, the honor he lived for would crumble and slowly kill him instead. MOONSTONE is a fabulous time travel romance that will leave no doubt as to the standing of Claire Cross among sub-genre fans. Using magic to propel the fast-paced story line forward (and back), sub-genre fans and fantasy readers will gain much pleasure from the superb novel. Readers will embrace the intelligent characters. Their reactions to time displacement feel genuine as the Medieval travelers struggle with modern times and a twentieth century individual seems overwhelmed with the fourteenth century. The response of the cast turn MOONSTONE into a necessary read for anyone who enjoys an entertaining story. Harriet Klausner

Summary: A new time travel from the author of The Last Highlander....
Review: THE MOONSTONE is a delightful time travel and fantasy story. Claire Cross has created appealing, sexy characters who have you cheering them on whether they are involved in highly comic or dire situations. She is a master at combining humor and adventure -- several scenes in this novel beg to be filmed in the spirit of "The Princess Bride". If time travel or fantasy have turned you off before, THE MOONSTONE is a book to replace that feeling with satisfaction from reading a most entertaining tale."

Review: This story contained some of the most boring and dumbest narration. It bored me and I skipped from the begining to the end and got the full sense of the story. Her other books were better.
