Love & Bullets Megabomb Edition<\/strong><\/a> by Nick Kolakowski<\/strong><\/p>\n

Trade Paperback: 432 pages
Publisher: Shotgun Honey Books<\/p>\n

First sentence…<\/p>\n

\n

Listen.\u00a0 At some point, a poor sap will look at you and say, “This is the worst day of my life.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Overview:\u00a0 Beware of Spoilers\u2026<\/p>\n

Bill is a conman on the run from the Rockaway Mob.\u00a0 They want Bill dead and the two million dollars that he stole from them back.\u00a0 Lucky for Bill, his girlfriend, Fiona is on the lam with him.\u00a0 Fiona’s got brains and can handle herself.\u00a0 As this modern day “Bonnie and Clyde” try to stay alive they find themselves at odds with crocked cops, hired assassins, other criminals, an Elvis impersonator, a government hit man and more.<\/p>\n

The Love & Bullets Megabomb Edition<\/a> is actually a reworking of three novellas featuring Bill and Fiona (A Brutal Bunch of Heartbroken Saps<\/a>; Slaughterhouse Blues<\/a> and Main Bad Guy<\/a>), but thanks to some clever re-editing and additional material, it reads like one rollicking adventure.\u00a0 I absolutely loved the characters, plus the right mix of violence, humor and heart.\u00a0 Kolakowski has the ability to make all of his major characters not only unique in voice and look, but the feel that any of them could be the “star” of their own tale.\u00a0 I blazed through Love & Bullets Megabomb Edition<\/a> loving every page.\u00a0 I was so impressed by Nick Kolakowski that I immediately ordered three more of his novels.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n
