Already Dead Audiobook

" Pretty good. The story is good but the writing could be better. The ebook version needs some dividers between scenes, however. The lack of dividers or chapters was pretty confusing. "

" Vampire noir. Free in Amazon Kindle's store. I read mine on my iPhone. Gritty and action-packed. "

" I like vampires but its so hard to find decent books written about them that aren't just thinly veiled Erotic fiction, so when I read a great review of this book in SFX I decided to check it out. Joe Pitt is a Vampire but he isn't one of your shagging anything, dark of heartness type of dudes, he is kind of a PI, well trying to do anything to keep himself out of trouble with the different gangs running NYC. Really enjoyed this Noir-Vampire novel, happy that it is going to be a series of books. "

" This was an entertaining read. It was dark, funny and an interesting twist on Vampires and Zombies. The second book I've read by Huston and will go on to read more by this author. Recommended! "

" I didn't like this as much as his first in the Hank Thompson series, but it's still pretty good - very different premise. Joe Pitts is a vampire, a problem solver for the various vampire clans around NYC. It's always nice to get an original take on the vampire theme - Huston's moves away from the romanticism of most vampire books and concentrates on the real everyday life problems they face in a world where they "don't exist" and are trying to survive. With a missing teenage girl, a zombie on the loose, an angry girlfriend and a mysterious follower that leaves no scent - Joe has gotten himself caught in the middle of a grand plan of some very powerful folks. This was good enough for me to keep reading this series and see what happens in the continuing, I guess you would call it life, of this smart-mouthed vampire. "

" If you like hard-boiled, Raymond Chandler mysteries meets Bram Stoker, the Joe Pitt Casebooks are right up your alley. They're kinda like book crack. In a really good way. "

" Hard-boiled noir crime novel, but with vampires. "

" Ripping yarn, could have used a bit more world creation, inconclusive ending. "

" It was ok. A lot like many of the other vampire series. "

" Noir undead with some thoughtfulness and imagination - not just a trotting out of the blood and gore brigade. "

" This is a quick, fun read. Vampires and zombies! Action never lets up. "

" Even though I like Charlie Houston this one was too much for me. "

" I liked this book. It pulled me in and I am ready for the next one in the series. I love Huston's narrative of the tough (or dumb) wise-guy. I'm thinking for him to do that so well, he must be some sort of wise=guy himself. IMHO. "

" really really good - think Anthony Bourdain as a vampire, without the cooking part... "

" Easy and Fast read...kept me interested and entertained. Loved them all! "

" Great fun series on "vampyres." Combines film noir and mafia with a different take on the vampire genre. "

" If Dwight from Sin City was a vampire, this is what his story might have been like. Fun and dark and violent. Good news if you, like me, were left wanting more after the end... this is but the first book in the series. "

" Vampire novel does Noir (think Maltese Falcon, etc) - good read, different from the normal crap I read. I liked it. "

" Really love Huston's writing style. "

" Much more clever than the Twilight books - liked that it was an edgy/adult vampire story. A quick read as well. "

" Detective novels aren't usually my thing, but throw in a couple of vampires and I'm sold. Honestly, though, I'd probably read anything by Charlie Huston just because he's so dang fun. "

" Vamp non-court politics. Great flawed character, fun to read. "

" Great fun series on "vampyres." Combines film noir and mafia with a different take on the vampire genre. "

" Very good. Urban fantasy, PI type book set in an interesting world, with a very readable lead character in Joe Pitt. Definately reading the next one of these. "

" I am becoming a big Charlie Huston fan. "

" Fun fluff read. Vampire detective looking to stop a zombie outbreak. What more do you need? "

" Vampire meets detective (in the line of Sam Spade). Mixes vampire info with conspiracies. "

" Very hard book to like to begin with - not my usual read. It did manage to grab my attention enough to keep reading, and actually quite, nearly, almost enjoy. "

" Amazing. Very much a Blade style vampire story. My only pet peeve is the shoehorning of words like "Vyrus" and "Vampyre." It doesn't make the story any cooler, so why offend grammar nerds?-ra "

" A fun read - brisk pace, crisp, edgy dialogue and a serviceable story with some pretty cool twists on vampire/zombie mythologies. "

" Good book. the author has a unique and dark style. A little slow to get into the main conflict, but definitely a good read. "

" Totally lacking in originality, but quite readable. He steals from some good sources, and his vampyres aren't all Twilightly. "

" This was an entertaining read. It was dark, funny and an interesting twist on Vampires and Zombies. The second book I've read by Huston and will go on to read more by this author. Recommended! "
