Rule 3 - The Hero and Female Friend will have Romantic Tension. This will go nowhere forever except in smutty fanfiction.
Rulebreaker - ...It goes somewhere, of course.
Another of my pet peeves of typical American series; anime tends to do this less, but even they offend often, setting up a relationship which is forever frozen. Besides, Syl would never let things drag on like that.
Look, there's more, but what you need to know is that almost every time this book make me go "Aw crap, what, again?" it made me give a followup "Dude. YES. Thank you." a while later.
My pleasure. While I have few actually original ideas of my own, I like to think I can manage amusing combinations of the old ones. :)
Nothing else is springing to mind, so I'm going to wrap up IN THIS END OF SPOILER WRAP UP SECTION now: If this is the sort of thing you like, you will like this sort of thing. It's not an instant literary classic of moving merit and eternal relevence,
It's NOT? *SOB* Oh, I am ... actually very happy with that, as I never set out to write anything other than a darn good read. :D
it's a fun and occasionally comic-booky game of Genre Fan Bingo mixed with some pretty good writing. Get past the Evil Werewolves (sigh) and this is a quite readable book, I'd waggle it past any Buffy fan in my path at the very least.
I describe it as "MacGyver meets the X-Files and Buffy the Vampire Slayer", myself.
Sorry about the Evil Werewolves, but they're not really Werewolves in any ordinary sense, and SOMEONE had to be the Great Villain of All Time; in my multiverse, that's Virigar, the Werewolf King.
...also, come ON. 'Ryk E. Spoor'. That's a name that'll look nifty on your bookshelf.
Heh. People asked me what name I was going to get published under. Well, my online name (Sea Wasp) is a bit TOO wierd, but my real name? Seems tailor-made for an SF writer. :)
Thanks for reading and reviewing, I appreciate it!
