Lime Gelatin and Other MonstersKyle Monroe, his irritating new partner and their fellow freaks at the 77th Precinct must learn to work together to stop a vicious murderer that might not even be human.Kyle Monroe s encounter with a strange, gelatinous creature in an alley leaves him scarred and forever changed, revealing odd abilities he wishes he didn t have and earning him reassignment to a precinct where all the cops have defective paranormal abilities.Just as he s starting to adjust to his fellow misfit squad mates, Kyle s new partner arrives. Tall, physically perfect, reserved and claiming he has no broken psychic talents, Vikash Soren irritates Kyle in every way. But as much as he d like to hate Vikash, Kyle finds himself oddly drawn to him, their non-abilities meshing in unexpected ways. If they can learn to work together, they might be able to stop the mysterious killer who has been leaving mutilated bodies along the banks of the Schuylkill.The Pill Bugs of TimeRelationship and communication issues plague Officer Vikash Soren, but those are nothing compared to facing stick-throwing tumbleweeds, pill bugs and time travel?Vikash Soren, the perfect police officer except for his odd paranormal ability, never seems to lose his temper. Always serene and competent, he s taken on the role of mediator in a squad room full of misfits. But on the inside, he s a mess. Unable to tell his police partner that he loves him, Vikash struggles silently, terrified of losing Kyle as a lover, partner and friend.But life in the 77th Precinct doesn t leave much room for internal reflection. A confrontation with a stick-throwing tumbleweed in Fairmount Park leads to bizarre consequences involving pill bugs, statues and time travel? If Vikash manages to survive the week and stay in one point in time, he might be able to address normal things like relationship problems. He just needs Kyle to have a little more patience. Maybe a few centuries worth.Skim Blood and Savage VerseWords damage more than just feelings as Carrington hunts feral books menacing the city.When a ferocious book attacks Carrington at his own birthday party, he believes it s an isolated incident. But similar books soon pop up all over town, menacing innocent people with harsh bits of poetry and blank verse that deliver damaging physical blows. It s a frustrating case with too many variables and not enough answers, and the stakes go up with each attack.With the help of his misfit squad mates at the 77th and the public library s Rare Books Department, the missing pieces decrease but not Carrington s vexations. His commanding officer rakes him over the coals at the beginning of every shift. His police partner has lost patience with what she sees as his delusional relationship choices and his inability to pick the right man in a vast field of two. City Hall demands that the books be stopped immediately. It s enough to put a nutritionally challenged vampire off his skim blood.
