Book description
The eighth book in the Cal Leandros series that began with
Nightlife, Slashback is clever, ironic and hugely
entertaining urban fantasy in the vein of Jim Butcher by the New
York Times bestselling author, Rob Thurman.
I stopped and let them circle me, first because it was intriguing
and, second, because, honestly, what could they do? Only knives, but
all armed, and that made them even more interesting. Interesting. Fun.
Play-time...
Taking on bloodthirsty supernatural monsters is how Caliban and Niko
Leandros make a living. But years ago - before they became a force to
be reckoned with - the brothers were almost victims of a very human
serial killer.
Almost.
Unfortunately for them, that particular depraved killer was working
as apprentice to a creature far more malevolent - the legendary
Spring-heeled Jack. He's just hit town. He hasn't forgotten what the
Leandros brothers did to his murderous prot g . He hasn't forgotten
what they owe him
And now they are going to pay . . . and pay . . . and pay . .
.
A dark contemporary fantasy with a humorous edge, Rob Thurman's
Slashback should not be missed.
Praise for Rob Thurman:
'Supernatural elements put this in the company of Jim Butcher and
Charlaine Harris' SFRevu
'A roaring rollercoaster of a read . . . it'll take your breath
away' Simon R. Green
