This is what I've finished so far:"Grave Matter - A Mike Hammer Story" - Max Allan Collins and Mickey Spillane This was a fairly amusing story. Though there wasn't much of a point to me.
I liked this book before I started to really know the characters. Initially, I felt I could relate to some of them and the story took me back to drunken college days and some fond memories but that is about where my relating stopped. As the story went on, I began to relate the whole novel to a night...

The down and dirty blood magic used in Trickster is not a new one but the ways in which Lem, Mags, Hiram, Amir and the rest implement the magic are beyond the scope of anything I have ever read so far.The entire book becomes centered on one thing stopping Archmage Mika Renar from destroying almost ...
I would give this 0 stars if that were possible. This novel was described as gritty - which turned out to be quite true if gritty means filled with blood, grime and bad smells - but sadly lacked in anything to make me care about the characters or their plight. The main character seemed immune to goo...
The Digital Plague was very good – I’m still in love with Avery Cates but getting frustrated that no one he’s attracted to ever manages to live (or at least stay human) to the end of a book. I mean if anyone ever deserved some romance it’s Mr. Cates, but alas Somers seems determined to work the univ...
Lem is a trickster, which means that he uses his own blood to perform magic. This usually amounts to conning the non magical around him. He is always looking for the next big score but when he follows up on a tip, Lem ends up on the magical radar of an archmage, who is far more powerful than him. Su...
For a book that promises lots of action and is full of this much bloodshed the first half was surprisingly slow going! I found it really hard to get into the book actually. The second half- once it was all set up and the action was unraveling was more fun to read. This is one of these books that lef...
This was definitely an interesting read if nothing else. The use of blood magic and using bleeders isn't exactly new but Somers used it well.Our main character is a guy, which was a nice change of pace from all those 'kick-ass chicks' out there. I liked his quick thinking and taking action. He alway...
