¿Mark Simmons, who never met a wisecrack, pun, or pop culture reference
he didn¿t like, explores different degrees of deadness in his latest
Christopher Cjesthe novel. Poor Chris . . . if he¿s not being made
unwilling ruler of the vampires, he¿s discorporated and floating through
walls. Lupe the Werewolf, Suki the cat/vampire, the voluptuous Deidre,
and, oh yes, Teresa¿s head . . . all are back for this lates
event-packed romp through a vivid world that leaps into existence every
time we open a Simmons book.
¿Charlaine Harris
¿. . . manages to combine enough wacky hilarity to satisfy a Terry
Pratchett fan, and a plethora of puns guaranteed to make a Piers Anthony
buff groan. . . . Mark might even have created himself a new
genre¿cybercafé.¿
¿Mercedes Lackey
¿. . . vampire Chris Haim has more problems than merely protecting his
secret . . . a jealous werewolf can ruin your whole day. Plots and
subplots and vignettes abound . . . fans of the early Terry Pratchett or
Eric Flint's Joe fantasies will enjoy the humorous bits.¿
¿Publishers Weekly
¿[Chris Cjesthe] is back for a new and even greater (and funnier)
adventure. . . . Snappy dialogue, lots of amusing details, a clever
plot, and a generally witty sense of humor combine to make this one of
those rare novels that combine levity and the supernatural in just the
right balance.¿
¿Chronicle
¿Readers who desire something off beat but humorous in their
fantasy/horror literature will want to read Dead on My Feet [prequel
to Habeas Corpses]. . . this book is fun.¿
¿Midwest Book Review
¿[Dear on My Feet] works because it is simply over the top . . . I
love the way Mr. Simmons plays with the standard action scenes¿for
instance a philosophy discussion during a car chase. . . .¿
