Urban Enemies - Tapa blanda

"Top grade horror fiction." * Booklist, Starred Review on Jonathan Maberry's Joe Ledger series * "The only thing more fun than an October Daye book is an InCryptid book. Swift narrative, charm, great world-building . . all the McGuire trademarks." -- Charlaine Harris, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of Sookie Stackhouse series on Seanan McGuire's InCryptid series "Heartbreaking . . . Somers conjures a riveting setting that bends and breaks time and again, each iteration raising the stakes for his accidental hero. By turns frightening and sorrowful, this is a story that offers no good choices to its characters. The ever-present violence is balanced by compassion, which in turn is eroded by the grim fight to save humankind." * Publishers Weekly on Jeff Somers' Ustari Cycle * "A wondrously gothic hybrid horror-thriller in the grand tradition of Dean Koontz and Stephen King." * Providence Journal on Kelley Armstrong's Cainsville series * "Storytelling doesn't get much better than this, folks. The author has caught lightning (pun intended) in a bottle and he keeps doing it again and again. If you haven't caught on to the joy that is the Iron Druid Chronicles, you should remedy that post-haste." * My Bookish Ways on Kevin Hearne's Hunted of the Iron Druid Chronicles * "Butcher is the dean of contemporary urban fantasy." * Booklist on Jim Butcher * "Helmed by editor Joseph Nassise, these tales plunge readers into the world of each series featured-from Jeff Somers' Utsari Cycle to Kevin Hearne's Iron Druid Chronicles to Carrie Vaughn's Kitty Norville series-these stories are sure to appeal to fans and series newcomers alike!" * RT book reviews * "Balanced and entertaining . . . Fans of urban fantasy can read stories from some of their best-known names in the genre and discover new writers in this well-arranged anthology, which focuses on villains. In Jim Butcher's "Even Hand," the human crime lord who has been a thorn in wizard Harry Dresden's side gets his due in an amusing story that pokes some fun at the long-running Dresden Files series. Other highlights include "Hounded" by Kelly Armstrong; Carrie Vaughn's "Bellum Romanum," featuring an immortal Roman centurion who wants to see the world burn; and the deliciously wicked "Balance" by Seanan McGuire, set in her InCryptid world." * Publishers Weekly *
