#30 Nightlife by Rob Thurman

Another urban fantasy that I have picked up. I must not be the only person in the world to read them. ;-) This one has two half brothers trying to stay one step ahead of the younger brother's father. Turns out that he is half elf. Of course in this universe, elves are not the usual stereotype that we have become accustomed to. And I like that. I also like what he did to trolls and vampires as well. Of course things catch up to Cal, the half elf and his fully human brother Niko has to rescue him with the help of a newly found allay.  And I will say nothing on their new friend since reading about him was fun.

I've got the first two C E Murphy books hanging around to be read. I guess this just pushed them a bit closer to the top. Thanks

I didn't like T'bird falls as much as the first but it was still better than the "kinky Werewolf/Vampire screws everything in sight until she figures out how to beat the bad guy" dreck by a good margin.

So would reading the phone book. Just sayin'

Yea but I don't think the phone book has a plot. Boinking everything in sight is a plot, granted it can be as thin as plot in a porno but it is a plot. ;-p
