I read my first Charlie Huston novel because of someone who gets my fanboy flying.

Though Huston has written a number of standalone novels, my favorites of his are part of a series collectively called The Joe Pitt Casebooks.

Vampyres - crikey, not more vampires, no, vampyres - prowl the dark territories of present-day New York City.

They are ruled within clans that run each NYC territory. Joe Pitt is the hero/anti-hero of the books but he's not just a vampyre slayer, he is also a vampyre, and only a vampyre slayer when the need arises like when he needs to save his living dead ass. A cross between a PI and thug-for-hire, Joe's just trying to get by day by day, or is it night by night.
 

The 'Casebooks' include five novels published between 2005 and 2010.

  • Already Dead
  • No Dominion
  • Half the Blood of Brooklyn
  • Every Last Drop
  • My Dead Body
