    About this audiobook

    Flushing out evil

    There's something fishy going on in the Unnatural Quarter. Bodies are floating face-down, the plumbing is backing up, and something smells rotten-even to a zombie detective like Dan Shamble. Diving into the slimy underbelly of a diabolical plot, Dan comes face-to-tentacles with an amphibious villain named Ah'Chulhu (to which the usual response is "Gesundheit!"). With his snap-happy gang of gator-guys-former pets flushed down the toilet-Ah'Chulhu wreaks havoc beneath the streets. While feuding weather wizards kick up storms and a gang of thieving lawn gnomes continues their reign of terror, Dan Shamble is running out of time-before the whole stinking city goes down the drain.…

      I saw this book in the library in the science fiction section, and the cover caught my eye. It's definitely not science fiction. Of the two main, overarching genres of speculative fiction, this definitely falls into fantasy, although it has tentacles in other genres as well. It's and absurd, comedic, supernatural, zombie detective story. The protagonist is dead, to begin with. So is his girlfriend. He's a zombie. She's a ghost. Along with their partner (a lawyer who isn't dead), they investigate problems brought to them by their clients, which in this book include a young mad scientist evicted from his underground lab, an ogre opera singer who lost his voice (it was stolen), a frog demon who is opening a spa, and a weather wizard running for election. That's what it is. There are all sorts of things it's not. It's not terribly original, insightful, or clever. The characters, prose, and setting are not especially well crafted. The cases that form the interweaving story don't close every plot hole. This isn't serious fiction (which is a term I've heard but regard as an oxymoron). It is, however, a lot of fun. Between the derivative characters, puns, absurd situations, and references to elements of contemporary culture, it's an enjoyable light read.

      Dan Shambles is a zombie who works as a detective. His girlfriend is a ghost. An interesting idea but I found the book to be a little bit of fun but mostly fluff. I received a review copy of Slimy Underbelly by Kevin J. Anderson (Kensington Books) through NetGalley.com.
