Wild new urban fantasy
TENTACULAR
The Wild Files (Book 1)
Don't stare ...
Don't turn your back ...
Don't speak their name ...
I'm Zara Wild, and I am a scientist. Yesterday, my life, my relationship, and my job were run-of-the-mill, normal, mundane even. Today, my lover is dead, I’ve been arrested for his murder, and the cop questioning me is sprouting thick slimy white tentacles from his head. By the way he's looking at me, he either wants me dead or he wants me for supper.
To escape, I’ll need to put my trust in a mysterious animal guide — a large red rodent with an outrageous French accent and magical powers. Together we’ll look into all the dank, dark places the Dullards fear to tread.
One thing is for sure: these freaks have just messed with the wrong woman.
Tentacular has serious Harry Dresden vibes with just a touch of CSI.
I really enjoyed this book, it was a bit different, the kind of fantasy I love.
The ending is fun and sets itself up for the next in the series ...
It is an excellent story. Love it.
