#11 The Nimble Man by Christopher Golden & Thomas E. Sniegoski

 I've read short stories by Golden and a book by Sniegoski so I decided to give this a try. It is yet another urban fantasy and since I tend to read quite a few of them I figured it would be pretty good and it was.  The premise starts with Sherlock Homes is a wizard and is living in modern times. He is looking for his old teacher and has help from several people including Eve.  I enjoyed the book and hunted down some more in the series.

I think I read the first three in the series and enjoyed each one (not sure how many there are)

I have a couple by the co-author at my shop but have not read him. Is Sniegoski good reading on his own??

the collection Mean Streets has a Sniegoski story in it and I liked it enough to read the first book. I liked it and really haven't gotten the next one just due to the library not having it and not wanting to pay for a trade paperback at the time.
