âAnother full caseload for the zombie detective . . .â in this âinventiveâ urban fantasy novel from a New York Timesâbestselling author (Kirkus Reviews).  To Be Dead Or Not To Be Dead  In the Unnatural Quarter, golems slave away in sweatshops, necromancers sell black-market trinkets to tourists, and the dead rise upâto work the night shift. But zombie detective Dan Shamble is no ordinary working stiff. When a local senator and his goons picket a ghostly production of Shakespeare in the Dark--condemning the troupeâs âunnaturalâ lifestylesâDan smells something rotten. And if something smells rotten to a zombie, youâre in serious trouble . . .  Before his way of life, er, death, is destroyed, Dan wants answers. Along the way he needs to provide security for a mummified madame, defend a mixed-race couple (he's a vampire, sheâs a werewolf) from housing discrimination, and save his favorite watering hole, the Goblin Tavern, from drying up. Throw in a hairy hitman, a necro-maniac, and a bank robber who walks through walls, and Dan Shambleâs plate is full. Maybe this time, the zombie detective has bitten off more than he can chew . . .  Praise for Death Warmed Over:  âA darkly funny, wonderfully original detective tale.â âKelley Armstrong, #1 New York Timesâbestselling author of A Twist of Fate).  âAn unpredictable walk on the weird side. Prepare to be entertained.â âCharlaine Harris, #1 New York Timesâbestselling author of the Sookie Stackhouse True Blood series  âLike Alexander McCall Smithâs Mma Precious Ramotswe, [Andersonâs] sleuths really do settle most of their cases, and they provide a lot of laughs along the way.â âKirkus Reviews |
