review:
A vampire and a werewolf walk into a diner...
and an awesome book ensues.
I heard this book was not as good as the newer ones, which I loved as well, but this one if far superior. The humor is less forced, more natural in its delivery, and the writing is damned good, especially for a debut.
This is not high art, unless you consider entertainment art. But it is a simple, good read, something that makes the commute fly by, something that you'd take on a plane and not worry about the turbulence. I'd compare A. Lee Martinez to Terry Pratchett, but only because they're SpecFic writers who make me laugh, and endlessly entertain.
Anyone who has eyes and a brain, and can connect the two together enough to process abstract concepts like letters that combine together to stand for the sounds that mean words will love this book.
