Vor der Trauung sterben, um ein Vampir zu werden? Das hebt den Begriff 'toxische Beziehung' auf ein völlig neues Level.Wenn es nach Jeremy ginge, würde Linett, so wie die Hochzeitsvorbereitungen, in den letzten Zügen liegen. In den letzten Atemzügen. Denn Linett soll ein Vampir werden - wie er.Leider schwankt Linett gehörig zwischen ihrem menschlichen Leben und der Liebe zu Jeremy. Dabei ist das Leben als Vampir doch gar nicht so übel. Zumindest wenn man nicht auf Linetts Pro- und Kontra-Liste nachsieht. Aber es wird noch besser (oder schlechter - je nachdem, wie man es betrachtet): Ausgerechnet Linetts erklärter Todfeind Lorenzo Sivori taucht bei ihnen auf und bittet um Unterschlupf.Jeremy weiß zwar nicht, wie Linetts Nemesis bei ihnen zwischen Kindererziehung, Familienalltag, Wandlungsängsten und Hochzeitsvorbereitungen noch ins Programm passen soll, aber in einem ist er sich todsicher: Ab jetzt kann es nur noch schiefgehen!Auch der siebte Band der witzig-skurrilen Erfolgsreihe 'Verflixt und zugebissen' ist in sich abgeschlossen. Egal ob du die anderen Bände kennst oder nicht, bei diesem Roman bleibt vor Lachen kein Auge trocken - und auch der ein oder andere Blutstropfen könnte dabei fließen.

"I was expecting a throne made from the skulls of your enemies.""It can be arranged." I'm not saying the entire magical population of North Yorkshire want us dead. Just the majority. Which is why we fled Leeds to hide out in the dubious safety of the seaside town of Whitby, where no one should've been looking for us. But lying low isn't really in our skillset, and when one of our few remaining friends is taken by the sea, we can't just walk away. We've got to get her back. Especially as her partner is a reaper with a scythe that can slice through reality, and the whole situation might be a teeny, tiny bit our fault. We're not going after Emma alone, though. We've got a one-eyed pirate captain, a bloodthirsty parrot, and a deeply dodgy mermaid, and not even the storm of the century is going to get in our way. The Black Dogs, the kraken cult, and the Sea Witch, on the other hand, might be a bit of a problem. Leeds is looking better by the moment ... This is the sixth book in the Gobbelino London, PI urban fantasy series, centred around the adventures of a mercenary feline PI and his human sidekick. It contains snarky cats and other gods, many bad jokes and terrible puns, plus a large serving of mythological and real creatures behaving badly. It will appeal to anyone who likes their fantasy funny, modern, and filled with friendship rather than romance - and also to those who suspect their cat may be living a great and secret life when they're not looking. A Menace of Mermaids contains some violence, particularly involving mermaids with a grudge and threatening kraken, but none of it is graphic. It contains no sex and only mild language. It does, however, contain blasphemy.

Following a simple yet powerful philosophy, Broccoli Bunch shows kindness and honesty to everyone she meets. She always sees the best in people, regardless of who they are, where they come from, and what they've done. Her beliefs have won over even the most skeptical and rigid warriors and leaders, making her the perfect builder of bridges between the diverse diplomats attending the peace summit in the kingdom of Sylphfree.

And since the disagreeable diplomats refuse to believe they're being manipulated, Broccoli must convince Rainnewt to abandon his plan and let her cleaning magic wilt the Evil Roots without inciting war. But when Broccoli confronts the fiendish flora, she will come face to face with her greatest fear . . .
