The first and only vampire book to be declassified by the federal government . . . Felix Gomez went to Iraq a soldier. He came back a vampire. Now he finds himself pulled into a web of intrigue when an old friend prompts him to investigate an outbreak of nymphomania at the secret government facilities in Rocky Flats. He'll find out the cause of all these horny women or die trying! But first he must contend with shadowy government agents, Eastern European vampire hunters, and women who just want his body . . . Skewering sexual myths, conspiracy fables, and government bureaucracy, The Nymphos of Rocky Flats reveals the bizarre world of the undead with a humorous slant and a fresh twist.
Thankfully and finally a Vampire book written for the Male reader.
No sparkly vampires, no swooning females.
A nice pace to a good Private Eye story with extra special characters.
Narration from the P.I.'s point of view has touch of Noir to it.
Meh. A lot of telling me stuff, rather than showing me.
This book has one of the best starting chapters I have read. It opens into the Iraqi war, and you can tell that the author, [author:Mario Acevedo] really did serve in the war. But once the war sequence is over and the story shifts back to sate-side, the story becomes contrived, as the author attempts to push himself into a vampire novel.
Many people really enjoyed this novel, and it is an entertaining read, but I think that the author has soo much more potential. I might pick up the second book in the series just to see if he gets better.
