What to read while waiting for the next P.S. Power book

Honestly, I don't mind smut in my books, but it get's a bit hard to bother reading it constantly when there's no story to go with it. Or it starts bashing too hard on one or the other types. Like, LKH Anita Blakes. For a long time, I just stopped reading her stuff because the books became all about Anita screwing for 300-400 pages, and the last 5-10 pages actually holding the story itself. Thankfully she's fixed that.

The other problems with most 'smut' books, are, the ones generated to straight sex, tend to bash on homo/les couplings. And vice versa, with gay/les themes generated to bash on straight sex.

I have yet to find an author that does one, or even both, without disparaging one or the other, or losing the 'story' behind the book to the smut factor itself. Atleast with Dale, he's admitted, it'll be there for the smut factor, not the story. LOL

Try Nial Teasdale. Nail writes a lot of bisexual women, with decent sex scenes. I'd recommend steal beneath the skin series first since it has an ending (may be continued) and is stronger than the first few thaumotology books. Thaumotology has gotten really good though.

Also try Good Intentions by the guy who wrote Rich ManS War. Probably right up your alley.

Fair warning, all three series have lots of sex. Not as "bad" as Anita Blake, but it's a bit heavy. Worth reading though.

If you want a better Anita Blake try Kim Harrison. Very similar but doesn't go full blown porno. I hate porno....

Read the PsyCop books by Jordan Castillo Price. They are really fun. Basically it's about a ghost medium working for the police and said medium is...a hot gay guy who can ruin his clothes completely on a donut snack table in ways that make others wonder if it isn't another near magical talent of his. As in: take donut. squirt marmelade inside all over his shirt after taking the first bite. Touch shirt with hands full of icing sugar. Try to remove marmelade and icing sugar with now icing sugar AND marmelade covered hands, spread mess further. Use a paper napkin trying to clean his shirt, rubbing the marmelade in and leaving little rolls of dirty paper from the napkin on his shirt. Give up and walk around with ruined shirt. On the other hand the MC is really cool and brave when it comes down to it. Just...not really suited to every day life.

LOL Thanks Float. I've actually got Good Intentions to read. I've pretty much already gone through the entire collection by Harrison. Loved the Hollows. Also gone through all of Kelly Armstrong's, Keri Arthur's, even Patricia Briggs and Ilona Andrews. As for the types. Rofl. Like I said, I'll read anything. Hell. I HAVE read everything. But as for the kind, rofl, I was one of those cheering for Rolph to get with Tor, instead of Sara. Before it came out with the whole Connie as Tor's genetic daughter.

Suttle doesn't do too bad with her bi/gay/les pairings, it's her straight pairings that make me want to scream bloody murder. Though Thankfully. She's limited that to her Finder Series. After the downhill rapey/abusive sexual relationships she put her female leads through for the Blood, God Wars, and High Demon series, seeing what she's done with her Saa, and the RD series gives me hope. Loved the two so far for her Saa, and the RD Cloud Burst I think it was called.

I'll have to check that one out Kat. The problem with a decent gay male lead character is alot of the times, the authors doing it are straight, and fall into the stereotype machine. Either they pop them up as effeminate wrist flops, or uber butch 'daddies'. Not, an average man.

Sigh. Yeah. Sadly, the Psycop ones are out of my budget unless I win the lotto. I can't justify paying paper back prices, for a digital copy, when it's not even an actual full length book. 150 pages for 4.99? Not gonna happen on my budget.

Ahh going in the old vain of superhero books. The Action Figures series by Bailey, VERY good. Just read the current two and depressed the third isn't out until Nov.
