OLD TIN SORROWS. GARRETT P.I. SERIES.
Markham Ontario : New American Library / Signet 1989. 252 pages 6 15/16" H. "A corps of corpses was what it seemed Garrett had committed himself to when Blake Peters turned up to reclaim some overdue favors. Someone was trying to kill Peters' boss wealthy retired General Stantor in a most lingering painful and maybe poisonous way. And Peters wanted Garrett to keep the general from becoming a ghost of himself. But Stantnor's mansion held a host of surprises for a human detective who thought he'd seen it all. For while the general was dying slowly his employees were losing their lives at a far speedier rate. And when some of the not-long-departed tried to enlist their comrades in the growing legions of the dead Garrett knew it was time to call in his own troops in the person of Morley Dotes the toughest half-elf around. Morley would guard his back against whoever had decided that Garrett too belonged six feet underground. And meanwhile Garrett would try to handle - or get his hands on - both the killer and the mansion's two elusive beauties - who seemed invisible to everyone but Garrett!"

FADED STEEL HEAT. GARRETT P.I. SERIES.
New York: Roc New York 1999 3rd printing. 1999. 356 pp 6 3/4" H. "Since the end of the war there had always been bigotry against non-humans in TunFaire. Even though many species had sacrificed in battle some groups of humans thought the 'Golden Rule' translated to 'Humans rule. Now give us your gold'. With the streets descending into bloody race riots and the organized 'human' brotherhoods flexing both physical and economic muscle TunFaire was a hairsbreadth from total chaos. Garrett is a wise-guy private investigator who speaks loudly and carries a big stick. He gets pulled into the game when a powerful gang of human rightists starts trying to shake down his employer. Backed by a circle of friends no one would wish on their worst enemy - and a foul-mouthed parrot that won't shut up - Garrett is caught in a conspiracy of hate that pits man against - everybody!" Interior - clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Exterior - minor corner wear. 1st Printing. Mass Market Paperback. Very Good. Illus. by Cover Art By Alan Pollock.

RED IRON NIGHTS. GARRETT P.I. SERIES.
New York: ROC 1991. 270 pages 6 13/16" H. "Blood-soaked blades had been taking their toll among the luscious lovelies in Garrett's home city of TunFaire. And though Garrett could be as civic-minded as the next guy - unless the next guy was Captain Block of the Watch - the private eye wasn't sure he really wanted to take on a serial killer psycho who did too good a carving job and never left any of the blood behind. Still having Block pay him for his services with lots of ill-gotten government funds and having his own partner the Dead Man strenuously urge him to take the case proved an irresistible combination for Garrett. And so the top - and only - private eye around found himself lining up his allies for a search that would take him from the lowest slums to the highest estates from confrontations with butterfly- and magic-spitting enemies to run-ins with the king of crime's wayward daughter to a final encounter with an ancient evil which had once again been loosed on his unsuspecting town." Interior - clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Exterior - very soft corner crease on front cover small corner crease on rear cover - migrates into pages light edge wear. 1st Printing.

Scarborough Ontario: New American Library / Signet 1987. 255 pages 7" H. "It should have been a simple job. But for Garrett a human detective in a world of gnomes tracking down the woman to whom his dead pal Denny left a fortune in silver was no slight task. Denny's family wanted to hang onto the treasure - especially sister Rose with a body hot enough to stop Garrett in his tracks but a heart colder than the metal he was packing. And suddenly vampires centaurs and other nasty creatures are in the way and Garrett would much rather be at home with a bottle of beer than in the wilds with fangs in his neck. Even with the aid of Morley the toughest half-elf around Garrett isn't sure he'd make it out alive from a land where magic could be murder the dead still talked and vampires were always hungry for human blood!"

Prince Ashurek grieving for Silvren his lost love looked up and shuddered." Interior - minor browning to pages otherwise clean and tight with no previous ownership marks.
