Rob Thurman's latest novel in the Leandros series: Blackout. GAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So pumped!!! Going to poop my freaking pants!

Here's the cover. Of course Cal's a pyro. Love it. ^^
And here is the intro:
"I was alone, and I was lost. I didn’t know where I was; I didn’t know who I was. It doesn’t get more lost than that. Knowing what I knew and not knowing anything else at all, why would I want to be in the darkness where monsters hide?
Because killers hide there, too…
Half-human Cal Leandros has always walked a bloody line between keeping his mortal soul free and clear (sort of) and unleashing the horror of his otherworldly heritage. The one thing that’s always saved him is the memory of his brother, Niko, his friends, and those he loves.
Until now.
Cal wakes up on a beach littered with the recently slaughtered remains of a variety of hideous creatures that were obviously looking for trouble. The fact that he was the one doing the slaughtering doesn’t bother him. The fact that he feels like a natural-born killer doesn’t either. What bothers him is that Cal doesn’t remember Cal anymore…
And he’s not sure he cares."
Fuck, this is going to be as good as the first novel (my favorite book EVER, have I mentioned that before??), if not better. Thurman is so brilliant with her twists in her novels, better than any author I've ever read. I mean, WOW. So good. And yes, I'm ruthlessly promoting my favorite author because she damn well deserves a metal for awesomeness or, idk, an island or something. Totally rocked my literary world and inspired the lens through which I view the world. She is the Budda to my personal dogma. Love her writing. Would love to meet her. Have a beer. And yes, I'm ruthlessly promoting her...because I want her to be successful. Want her book? If you live in the States go buy it you morons, if not, shoot me an e-mail and I will mail you out a copy.
OMG, I'm going to pass out. So fucking pumped!!
***Also, people, go buy Rob's newest book, The Grimrose Path, on September 7th!!!***
