About book Werewolf Smackdown (2010)

Mario Acevedo is one of the only authors who can combine zombies, vampires, werewolves, and aliens and not make me think, "Man this guy is overdoing it." But as the series continues all I can think is, "How does he do it?" I bought the first novel because of the title, but the further I go through these novels the more I want to know what happens.Felix Gomez is a walking tragedy, and while the novels are mostly told in a light tone, the undertone is heavy as is the emotions swirling through the private eye's being. I love a mash up of genres. Felix is a vampire P.I. who inhabits a noirish world where the supernatural creatures generally police themselves and ignore each other. He's a gulf war vetern and works for himself, unless he's taking orders from the Araneum, the super, secret vampire council that takes the Great Secret very seriously.In this installment, Felix is lured from Denver to Charleston, South Carolina and finds himself in the middle of a Werewolf showdown. If there is trouble to be had or made Felix is usually in the middle of it. We could have a drinking game: a shot everytime Felix senses danger.
