What a neat funny book. I loved it, a few reviews I read after finishing it, said they didn't like Sara... I couldn't understand why? The characters were all neat,with light dialogue, and with it being Sara's story she was the main character. Ok so she's in your face mouthy and a no S**t girl.....Just what an up and coming Alpha Male needs! ~*~*~*~*~*~~*~**~~*~*~* Sara could see through the glass window as four more bikes pulled up outside the shop. Miki turned to Casey, “Are these men men or chicks dressed as men?” Sara closed her eyes and Angelina sighed. Miki broke into a grin, “I’m just askin’.” What walked through the shop door three minutes later, though, were clearly “men men.” Chapter two. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~* Zach had caught her scent as soon as he’d gotten out of the pickup truck the Pack brought with them just for hauling stuff around in. He’d followed it to the side of the shop, but never expected to find her lathering up some pit bull. Shamelessly, in fact. Who’s my good boy? Was she kidding? Hell, he could be her good boy. Her very good boy. Or her very bad one. Chapter five. ~ ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~* Zach crouched down beside Sara and wrapped the blanket around her. “Zach, I’m so cold.” She barely got that out, her teeth were chattering so hard. “Don’t worry, baby, it’s normal. It’s your first change. It’s to be expected.” Sara still broke into a grin. “My first change? You mean I’ve popped my change-cherry?” Zach looked at her and started laughing, “Yeah, I guess you could say that. If you’re tacky enough to say that.” Chapter thirteen. ~~*~*~*~*~*~* Very light hearted humor and a good story,Hope the rest of the series is a s good.

Gregory Lamberson is a man of many talents. Most recently praised for his film making (see our review of Slime City Massacre), we can't forget that he is also an accomplished author. To that end, Lamberson returns to taunt his readers with Desperate Souls, the sequel to 2004's Personal Demons, and the second book to his "Jake Helman Files" series. After seven years, you might think the character of Jake Helman might be a little rusty. You'd be wrong. Picking up just a short while after the end of Personal Demons, Desperate Souls drags us back into the messed up life of former-cop-now-private-eye Jake Helman. After the mess of drugs and terror his life became at the hands of the serial killer "The Cypher," Helman has opened up his own private investigation practice in the hopes of making a quiet living snapping photos and following unfaithful lovers around. Of course, if that was all that happened, we wouldn't have much of a story to read. A new drug has appeared on the streets, Black Magic, and it's killing its users. The problem is, they're not staying that way. Helman winds up tightly entwined in the investigation and discovers an all-too-familiar world of greed, pain, and the supernatural. And if he's not careful, it could cost him his life. Desperate Souls is a dark and broody noir piece that hearkens back to the world of Mickey Spillane and Dashiell Hammett, where the good guys aren't always so good, and the bad guys aren't always the ones you need to worry about. The character of Jake Helman is very much cast from the same mold of Sam Spade, Mike Hammer, and Philip Marlowe in that he isn't afraid to bend rules to get the job done, and he's never really sure who to trust. His past haunts him, and we, as readers, get to see him struggle to overcome his past drug addiction, the deaths he caused, and the mistakes that cost him not only his job, but his family. While he's not an "everyman," he is the kind of fellow that most guys would want to be like. Plot-wise, the story is very straight forward, though there are a few twists that keep the reader guessing. There are also moments where a lesser author would go for the easy out, leaving the reader breathless as the hero comes through unscathed. Lamberson, however, is fearless in the amount of abuse Helman takes, and the reader will sit and cringe with every blood-soaked page. It is Lamberson's ability to take his characters right to the edge and drive them over that is one of the real strengths of this book. And no matter what happens, Helman's personal code of right and wrong carry him through so that we readers know, no matter how bloody and battered, he will keep going until the job is done. Which is not to say that Desperate Souls is perfect. To be sure, there are a few problems that'll probably drive any English teacher a little crazy, but the story is compelling enough that any complaints come down to nitpicking. The bottom line is, like Helman, the story may not always be pretty, but it works and gets the job done.
