ZOOLOOs BOOK TOURS | MELINDA WEST & THE GOBLIN QUEEN | KC GRIFANT
ABOUT THE BOOK
In an alternate Old West, monsters rule the land—but one deadly duo is humanity’s last hope.
Melinda West is a sharpshooter with a steady hand, a cool head and a no-nonsense attitude. Her partner, Lance, brings the charm—and the firepower. Together, they’ve made a living hunting supernatural threats. But when a strange illness leaves a trail of corpses in its wake, they realize they’re about to face their greatest challenge yet.
As the bodies pile up, a swarm of gremlins—smarter, faster and deadlier than anything they’ve encountered before—are hellbent on destruction. Unless Melinda and Lance can uncover the truth behind these mysterious creatures, everything they know will be torn apart.
Fast-paced, gritty, and packed with supernatural thrills, Melinda West and the Gremlin Queen blends the rebellious charm of Bonnie and Clyde with the high-stakes action of Supernatural and Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
REVIEW
Melinda West and her partner, Lance are back in a new adventure.
It’s been a year since they hung up monster hunters garb, Melissa and Lance are adjusting to their new life. However, things are not peachy with Melinda as she is haunted by visions of monsters from the edge. Whilst visiting Aunt B. Melinda and Lance are drawn back into their life as monster hunters as a young woman from the nearby town of Fallow has come seeking their aid to discover the truth about a mysterious illness plaguing the town. Reluctantly, the pair head out to give their assistance and hopefully solve the mystery.
They soon discover that the outbreak is caused by something that will test their skills as monster hunters.
I love, love, love Melinda West and this new book made me love her and the whole world that KC Grifant has created even more.
The book is fast paced and full of action that kept me entertained all the way through. This was one of those books that I started and before I knew it I had devoured the whole thing. I think one of the things that I liked is that it is just so easy to read.
Not only that, I loved the monsters. They put me in mind of Critters and I have such a soft spot for that film, and because of that, I just had warm fuzzy feelings for the book.
I have got to say that when it comes to KC Grifant’s books, I have enjoyed all that I have read. The first Melinda West was such a blast, as was Shrouded Horror, and this latest one just adds to the list. I also love Luke Spooner’s cover art. He captures the mood of the books so well, and with the colour scheme of the art, he captures that pulp western feel crossed with the supernatural elements of the story really well.
Definitely one of my favourite books of the year.
