Nothing tonight
About 75% of the way through Monster Hunter Alpha -- damn good writing.
In #2 (Monster Hunter Vendetta) there was a very large cast of characters; all of them a lot of fun but still, it was a very wide but not a very deep story.
In Alpha, Larry digs into the person of Earl Harbinger as he writes his autobiography (each chapter starts with a chunk of it). The chapters then segue to a massed werewolf attack on a small town in upstate Michigan with the supernatural very much in play. Old Ones, witches, diggers, sea devils and a large cast of extras pop their heads into the story arc but the primary story is the town of Copper Lake.
Spent the last three hours grinning like an idiot, reading and having dinner and a couple beers at a local restaurant. You have to love a story that has the line: "and that jerk Woodrow Wilson"
