The Suicide Motor Club

After reading and enjoying Christopher Buehlman's Between Two Fire for the podcast, it was only a matter of time until I picked up another one of his books. I went with The Suicide Motor Club, which proved to be a rip-roaring tale of drag racing vampires who run their victims off the road and then drink their blood. The vampires make a victim of the wrong person when they steal away a young woman’s son and husband; after “dealing” with the aftermath of her personal tragedy, she becomes a nun, which empowers her in some particularly juicy ways for dealing with the undead. This is absolutely a cracking novel--it would be easy to disappoint after the grotty heights of Between Two Fires, but damn if this isn't another near-perfect outing.
