Sudden Backtrack
A Hollows Short [single short story]
Series: Hollows Graphic Novel

#1 New York Times bestselling author Kim Harrison returns to the ever-after one last time in this never-before-published short story!

The origins of the elf and demon war have been shrouded – until now. Told from a demon's point of view, join Al as he helps Newt spin the curse that caused the elven downfall... and perhaps holds the beginnings of their own reclamations.
So, not an anthology....but a sort of prequel chapter.

ETA: I tried to look at the sample to see if it really was a comic book graphic novel. Stupid thing - it showed the cover, title page, and contents page. No actual content, though.

On the other hand, alansplace has discovered that Brief Cases, the sequel to Side Jobs, should be released sometime next year and contains all those newer stories.
Cool! Although, I have a "Fairy God Father" who has been helping me out on that front! So I might have all of them already.

Ah. Thats cool too. No worries. While a minireview might be nice, I rather not accidentally spoil anything for myself anyway.

Yup! I saw, participated and downloaded the whole kit & caboodle two weeks ago, when it first went out. Both Villians and Hair of the Wolf have joined the Bigfoot stories on my Kindle. I'm also interested in Neon Noir, but I'm not ready to start a brand new series just yet.

I agree with fizzwater. Allie Beckstrom is great, just read them one after another. I did like the iron druid though, so fifty fifty.

White Trash Zombie - After having been found naked and unconscious by the side of the road, our heroine suddenly finds herself having a job(!) and a crawing for brains. The book has a lowbrow TV-Show style and lots of weird humor, and solid, engaging characters.

The Signs of the Zodiac Series by Vicki Pettersson. Quite different. A city of Super heroes and very nasty anti-heroes based of the signs of the zodiac and fueled by the belief of kids reading comix..

Shadow Sight (Ivy Granger #1) was pretty entertaining. Female psychic detective in a world with all sorts of undercover monsters.

As I wait out the 10 year waiting period for the next "The Dresden Files" I have been hooked reading "The Demon Accords" I am hooked on the Audible books.

Am I the only one....

Can't say that I've ever heard of the series, but I just grabbed the first one to give it a try. Thanks for the recommendation.
