I am reading Mike Resnick “Stalking the Dragon”. http://www.amazon.com/Stalking-Dragon-Tonight-Mallory-Mystery/dp/1591027454/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1256839555&sr=1-1

This is a book 3 in an unexpected series chronicling

the adventures of private eye John Justin Mallory in

the alternate Manhattan full of elves, cat people,

goblins selling encyclopedias, demons, vampires and

museum animals stuffed so expertly “they don’t know

they are dead” and come to life at midnight.

Original book “Stalking the Unicorn” came out about

20 yrs ago. I read it five times. I also read about 5

short stories set in the same world and following

further funny misadventures of John Justin Mallory,

his feline assistant Felina, big game hunter middle aged

Winnifred Caruthers and his heavy gambling habit and

light humor. I did not think Mike Resnick would write

another novel, but he did publish “Stalking the Vampire”

a year go with Pyr and now he follows it with this book.

It is funny, humor is inoffensive and pleasant, alternate

Manhattan is fun place to visit and he manages to stay

away from endless puns common to Piers Anthony’s

Xanth series.
