About the author

K.G. McAbee has had a whole bunch of books and well over a hundred short stories published, and she considers some of them quite readable. She writes steampunk, fantasy, science fiction, horror, pulp, Westerns and creature horror. As they say: Write what you know. She’s a member of International Thriller Writers, The Heinlein Society and the International Association of Media Tie-In Writers.

If you’re into stories with talking trucks, snide demons, cursed gadgets, sarcastic sidekicks—so many sarcastic sidekicks—rampaging gorgonopsids, haunted mesas, and cabbages with subversive agendas, you’ll probably survive her books. And if you’re into Lovecraft, she’s written more Cthulhu stories for various anthologies than you can shake a stick at.

Fair warning: do NOT shake a stick at Cthulhu, especially if you value your immortal soul.

Boring

I could not even finish this. It had loads of potential but definitely fell flat. Jumped between first person and observer points of view. It would have helped if it had chosen one or the other. Did find myself liking Freddie and Marty but not enough to read it through.
