Narrative Concering Books Madhouse (Cal Leandros #3)

Half-human Cal Leandros and his brother, Niko, aren't exactly prospering with their preternatural detective agency. Who could have guessed that business could dry up in New York City, where vampires, trolls, and other creepy crawlies are all over the place? But now there's a new arrival in the Big Apple. A malevolent evil with ancient powers is picking off humans like sheep, dead-set on making history with an orgy of blood and murder. And for Cal and Niko, this is one paycheck they're going to have to earn.

Assessment Containing Books Madhouse (Cal Leandros #3)

Traveler, abide with me. Red light blazed to bloody suns. Abide in me. Special boy with the special taste. The taste of madness, the taste of me.Although I do love the first two book in the series as well, this one is where I think it really takes off. The first book is a good introduction and the second book is a good first 'real' adventure - although it tends to get bogged down in an unfortunate foray into short-lived romance - but this is where things really get cranked up to 11.Sawney is a

Holy cliffhanger hell, that was a doozy. Other than the last few paragraphs that came out of nowhere and knocked me on the side of the head, the book was rather sedate. Sure, there's a cool plot about a restored and ancient serial killer that's tough to beat, but just like the others in this series so far - nothing feels frantic or particularly suspenseful about it.I think the main issue is that most Urban Fantasies dip their genre toe deeply into the mystery pool, stimulating the thinking part

Enjoyable though both Niko and Promise are slowly falling flat, there is little depth added to the characters and by now I'd have expected that at least Niko would have gained some character flesh on his bones. Another complained is that halfway through, a silly little thing an art professor said in a lecture i sat in on came to mind; "Its incredibly annoying if you can see the frame of a story through the plot". This actually does that, I can see the main plot, side plot, fight the bad guy 3

You can see the following review also here: http://loveandlivetoread.wordpress.co...And the great stories keep coming!! I am not surprised that I loved this story. Since I read the first book, I knew that this series was going to be a new favorite one! Its dark urban fantasy and that means that except the adventure and the great sense of humor that every book has, there is also an internal battle of feelings for the main characters.Cal and Niko are trying to find a mass murderer and at the same

Madhouse is the third installment in the Cal Leandros series by Rob Thurman and in my opinion, the best one so far. I loved the story. It was full of action and plenty of page time with each character. Ms. Thurman really found Cal's voice in this book. I felt like more story was told and less internal monologuing by Cal. Though books one and two were really good, they were so full of sardonic monologuing that I couldn't get through the pages without going back and re-reading the conversation to

I'm a bit torn on how to rate this book ...What I like+ Cal still being snarky. I'm still amused on his thoughts. Some of them are REALLY FUNNY!+ A subplot related to Robin; because I love that oversexed puck+ Less George. I don't like her. I don't know why. She's creepy+ Delilah is interesting :)+ Is there possibility of a puck and a peri ... K-I-S-S-I-N-G in the next book? *grin*What I dislike+ The subplot of Robin actually makes the writing (since this is written from Cal's 1st POV) feels

I really loved this book. Mostly because I loved how all the things that have happened in the first two books are finally catching up with our main protagonist and he has to deal with it. Highly recommend this series if you like urban fantasies. - June 1, 2008Reread this book as part of my re-read of the entire series. I love this series, some books more than others, but I find I'm appreciating all of them more as I read the whole series again, little hints of what is to come that I pick up on
