I read both this book and Faith Hunter’s Mercy Blade a couple of weeks ago when I had to stay home due to an illness. They’re a perfect combination, so I encourage you to go catch some sort of bug so you can stay home and read them both. (Okay, not really. I suppose you don’t have to actually make yourself ill to do this.) If you like urban fantasy and you’re not reading this series, I’m not entirely sure that we can stay friends in the future. So what are you waiting for?

Review: Mercy Blade by Faith Hunter
If you want a peek into the world of an extraordinary, supernatural woman with real flaws, then I’d urge you to give Jane a chance.

If you loved Shaun of the Dead the same way I did, then Married With Zombies is just the Christmas read you need.
