Blogging at Nocturnal Book Reviews since May 2011 about steampunk, urban fantasy, historical & paranormal fiction, contemporary, fantasy, sci-fi & erotica.

Moonshine (Cal Leandros, Book 2)

Moonshine - Rob Thurman Rob Thurman is a very good example of urban fantasy. Her writing is crisp, sharp and sarcastic, full of banter and good old boy humour that will keep you snickering.

Cal and Niko very much remind me of two brothers from Supernatural. So if you like this show you will most certainly love the books.

The brothers are tight, and it's quite touching to see how they can not imagine life without each other and will do anything in their power to save one another.
I also love the puck, Robin Goodfellow, narcissistic, wickedly charming fashion plate/comedian and Promise, a vampire and a black widow who buried five husbands and got her hands on their fortune. Along with brothers Leandros they make a formidable team.

Although this book is not as intense as the first one, Rob Thurman definitely laid the groundwork for the future adventures of the brothers with all the new developments that happened in Moonshine.

And the quotes! You can quote half of the book, the phrases are so catchy :)

" I shitteth you not."

"Sufficient unto the day the ass kicking therein."

Overall, a very good read. I intend to go through all the books written by this author and thoroughly enjoy them.
