DEATH'S EXCELLENT VACATION had so many great contributing
authors and so many great stories, I enjoyed them all. Of
course, a few stood out more for me than some of the others.
At first, I wanted to read this book because two of my all
time favorite authors, Charlaine Harris and Katie
MacAlister, are contributors. After reading this book, I may
just have found a few more authors to enjoy.
I want to highlight two of my favorite stories. In the first
story, Two Blondes, I enjoyed reading a story focused on
Sookie and Pam, rather than Sookie and one of the men in her
life. This story was a short and quick adventure in
Sookie's always-turbulent life.
The Perils Of Effrijim brings us the story of Aisling's
sidekick and demon dog, Jim. Now if you are a fan of the
Aisling Grey series, you know what a hoot this demon dog is.
I just love his wit and humor. As we watch, Jim is banished
to Akasha. In another form, he must find a way back to
Aisling. This short had me laughing out loud at Jim's antics
and eagerly awaiting the next story in this series.
You are sure to enjoy this collection of short stories,
especially if you are already a fan of these authors and
their characters. I enjoyed being able to pick up and read a
quick story about a beloved character or finding out more
about an unfamiliar author. I think that some readers will
find some new authors that they may want to go out and buy
after reading their stories in this book.
