This as a well written murder mystery with a side of light BDSM to keep it interesting. I enjoyed the strong, well balanced Roger who walked the line between being a cop and a strong Dom. The two aren't mutually exclusive but I could see how they over lapped especially in early stages of Roger and Sean;s relationship. I tried hard to like Sean but found him to be a bit of a bumbling pain in the ass. I couldn't but help liking the strong female lead that was Mary Anne. I haven't found many women mixing it up in a BDSM story but she was no shrinking violet. There were enough twists in the story that it took me a while to figure out who the killer was. What was difficult to grasp was why the killer decided to act out after 25 years and not before. The guy got away with the crime perfectly. With a good plot, interesting characters and a line of bodies, this mystery is very much worth reading.… (meer)

This needs volume 3... 4... 5... and probably 6. And multiple side stories, even m/f ones. Betsy kicks some serious ass and I loved Drew too much to let him go.

Vampires in "Immortality is the Suck" don't sparkle, they are not even remotely pretty after they are back in the world of the living. Death intensifies character traits: violent become more violent, angry become angrier, gluttonous become even more so. These guys are all about blood and drugs and biker gangs. They are all about murder and crime. The ugly animal behind the vamp's human facade actually makes its unpleasant appearance. Anne Rice's vamps are plain boring next to the ones in this book, Adam even says so himself and I agree with him wholeheartedly.

Closer to the end the snark and dark humor that sucks you in dwindles down some, but once sucked in (pun, no pun, look at it any way you want) it's hard to put the book down. Intensity, however, doesn't deteriorate in the slightest, it builds up until the very end.

Can't wait to sink my teeth into book two :)

PS I have to say I added a star just for the glossary of translations at the end of the book. I wish it was a requirement to provide translations for all the foreign phrases and/or slang. Yes, I can get by with my bits and pieces of spanish, french, and italian, but honestly, it's nice not to rake your brain while reading a story.

PPS Anyone knows where I can get the in-between Adam & Peter 1.5? =)
