Welcome to The Friday 56 hosted by Freda’s Voice.
This is a really fun meme!
The only rules are to grab a book (any book), turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader and find a sentence or a few (no spoilers) that grabs you and post it.
Then go over to Freda’s Voice and leave your link so we can visit your 56!
My 56 for this week is from
Dead Things
Eric Carter #1
by Stephen Blackmoore
Genre: Fantasy/ Urban Fantasy
My 56
It’s easy to forget how dangerous they are. Seeing them is one thing, but this is different. I’ve thinned out the barrier between worlds. Given half the chance, they’d eat me.
Read on if you want to know more.
Synopsis
Necromancer is such an ugly word, but it’s a title Eric Carter is stuck with.
He sees ghosts, talks to the dead. He’s turned it into a lucrative career putting troublesome spirits to rest, sometimes taking on even more dangerous things. For a fee, of course.
When he left L.A. fifteen years ago he thought he’d never go back. Too many bad memories. Too many people trying to kill him.
But now his sister’s been brutally murdered and Carter wants to find out why.
Was it the gangster looking to settle a score? The ghost of a mage he killed the night he left town? Maybe it’s the patron saint of violent death herself, Santa Muerte, who’s taken an unusually keen interest in him.
Carter’s going to find out who did it and he’s going to make them pay.
As long as they don’t kill him first.

I know. I’m ready to dive back into it.
OOOOhhhhh, pulled me right in there… lol
Happy weekend!
Yeah. It did the same to me. LOL
I love this extract! When I see the word Necromancer in a synopsis I always think of Anita Blake though. 🙂 #girlpower
Anita Blake. Good one!
Sounds really good! Here’s mine: My Friday Post
Not too far into it but liking it already.
Sounds good. Mine is also urban fantasy. My book this week is Unholy Blue by Darby Kaye. Happy reading!
I enjoy a good urban fantasy now and then:)
This sounds good! I love a book with ghosts!
So do I, Katherine.
He looks far from dead. 😉 In fact he looks pretty darn good 😉
Sure does. Kind of reminds of my Keanu Reeves in Constantine.
I hope you are enjoying this one…it’s definitely not for me. LOL. But thanks for sharing…and for visiting my blog.
I like dead things. LOL
Aw, my type of book!
I second that!
Yay! 🙂 I’m glad you’re enjoying it.
