I grew up in western Massachusetts, and I went to college in Boston and grad school in Providence, Rhode Island. I lived in London; Auburn, Alabama; and several cities around the northeast before I settled in central New York state. I’m a full-time Continue Reading

Review: Deadtown by Nancy Holzner

January 6, 2010 by Mandi 17 Comments

They call it Deadtown: the city’s quarantined section for its inhuman and undead residents. Most humans stay far from its borders — but Victory Vaughn, Boston’s only professional demon slayer, isn’t exactly human… Vicky’s demanding job keeping the city safe from all manner of monsters is one reason her relationship with workaholic lawyer (and werewolf) Alexander Kane is in constant limbo. Throw in a foolhardy zombie apprentice, a mysterious demon-plagued client, and a suspicious research Continue Reading
