What Amazon Readers are Saying:

★★★★★ 'Phoenix is an anti-hero.... but still a hero, and he's sarcastic, raw, and freaking REAL.'

★★★★★ 'Move over, Stephen King. You have competition.'

★★★★★ 'Hilariously sophisticated, intentionally exaggerated, Undead as a Doornail, Aicher's first book in this series, has me impatiently waiting for Bones and his next gruesome hunt.'
