Bleak History by John Shirley
…Bleak History delivers on many levels in a way that reminds me of Jim Butcher’s Storm Front. John Shirley’s got something special here, with loads of promise. I think these characters have more stories to tell, so I’d love to read more books set in this world… I highly recommend John Shirley’s Bleak History to any urban fantasy fan who enjoys a straight forward plot, interesting characters, and a fast pace.

I love Jim Butcher’s books. Adding another author to my must-look-for list.
I also love Jim Buther’s book and finding a new author to add to my list
keep in mind his style is different than Butcher’s. It has a much more serious tone. I compared the two simply from the fact that I remembered feeling the same way after reading Storm Front. I wanted to read more, and found the main protagonist to be different than most in fantasy. I see the same kind of potential.
