A couple of books have been read in the meantime.
God's Other Son - Jon Imus
Quite the story. The premise of the story is a misguided boy turned televangelist and every sordid little detail in his life. It read a lot like the Giphart, Grunberg and Campert novels I read for Dutch class.
The Nymphos of Rocky Flats - Mario Acevedo
Starting out with vampires and nymphomania, the story quickly devolves in the pulpy novella I picked it up for. Acevedo tries to put his spin on the vampire genre and I must say that I quite like his ideas. Unfortunately, the involvement of aliens did tone down my impression a bit.
A Metropolitan Murder - Lee Jackson
This failed to impress me. Victorian London is one of my favourite settings, but the characters, the mystery and the deductions were less than impressive. Thank the deities I only borrowed it from the library.
Pokemon is getting along nicely. The league has been defeated and the first steps have been made towards IV and EV perfection. Only one trade to go before I can finally finish my team.
