It is a fun ride with old friends and new characters to add to Acevedo's mythos. Felix is thrust between Vampires,aliens and the government once again with both disastrous and hilarious consequences. Devotees of urban fantasy fiction should check out the series you wont be disappointed. This whole series is great fun -- more amusing than "dark". Third book in the entertaining Felix Gomez vampire detective series.

Felix Gomez #3: The Undead Kama Sutra

The second book set a high bar with strong character and character development as well as pushing the world with hints about vampire history and how certain vampire powers work. It also did away with the silly and poorly described alien plotline in the first book. Felix is called to the death bed of his replaced-by-an-alien friend from the first book. The alien has been shot with some sort of extraterrestrial blaster and he's too far gone to say much.

He gives Felix a name, the blaster, a roll of money, some map coordinates, and a request: Soon, Felix is off the the Florida keys investigating the murder.

He stays at an island resort for vampires and their humans and gets a command to follow the same investigation from the secret vampire masters. The sex plot this series always has one splits into two threads. The undead kama sutra of the title is a possibly-mythical document explaining how vampires can use sex magic to accomplish many things, including healing themselves from serious injury. Felix' friend at the resort is researching it and Felix is interested in her discoveries.

The other thread is a new collection of drugs for sale proven to increase bust size, erection strength, hair growth, etc. Of course we'll start to see connections between the alien killing, the drugs, a not-mysterious plane crash the Arcanum sends him to investigate, and the corridors of power ruling the whole G5. There are some goofy bits a sudden friendship with a bum, a spider whose bite allows vampires to endure sunlight, and the heights of politics that haven't shown up before in the series , but these are not unpleasant and may lead to something in later books.

In fact, this is the first of the books that feels like part of a series. It brings back plot elements we thought were dropped, it introduces characters and McGuffins we should expect to see again, it advances Felix' relationship with the Arcanum in interesting ways, and it clearly ends with the next book in mind. One thing to be aware of: The ending is even kind of a downer.

Nonetheless, it's a fun book with many funny moments, entertaining action, and a good conspiracy-laden mystery promising powerful and interesting recurring opponents. If you like the genre, check it out. Acevedo's Felix Gomez is an Iraq War vet turned vampire who has become a hard boiled private investigator in a classic noir sense.

He lazily relies on his supernatural powers hypnosis, stealth, etc. Both series portray the vampire world as coexisting in our modern world but in highly secretive fashion, with Gomez governed by and assisting, at times, the Araneum, a governing council for vampire behavior. In this third installment, Felix is searching for the complete "The Undead Kama Sutra", a manual of sexual positions that promises great psychic benefits for vampires.

This search ultimately teams him with Carmen Arellano, a sex driven vampire already deep into research on the manual. Their search is interrupted by the death of an alien who issues a cryptic warning to Felix to "find Goodman and save the Earth women". This dying request launches an extended investigation that ultimately involves vampires, other extra-terrestrials, governmental and military conspiracies, a cosmetic industry conspiracy with aliens, a pretty darn good mystery, and some heavy discussion of sexual encounters that remain more talked about than fulfilled.

If all that does not scare you off, then jump into the strange world of Mario Acevedo I enjoy reading the details of the rules and procedures for vampires living among the humans in Felix's life. For example, his joy at eating hot Mexican food laced with whole blood, or the various outcomes of his "fanging" a human along with how he controls the enzymes that have various functions in the process. Acevedo creates interesting fully fleshed characters and his plots are often unique to this genre.

He still has problems with pacing at times, but that is becoming a minor quibble as his works matures. I recommend this series to fans of vampire literature or of supernatural noir.

These books are, I think, entertaining but not all that memorable. Of course her friends and the vampire power structure want her back, but have no way to make it happen. Mar 13, Glennis rated it really liked it. That said, one is left with a sort of terrible anticipation at a certain point to know exactly what hopelessly idiotic thing is going to happen next. Felix' friend at the resort is researching it and Felix is interested in her discoveries.

But when an army hit man attacks Felix and the bodacious vampire sexpert, Carmen, not even the astonishing erotic powers of the Kama Sutra for the Undead may be able to save them. Oh, Felix Gomez series. I enjoyed the second book because it told a somewhat serious story of conspiracy and revenge. The plot this time, though? Aliens want to steal our Earth women. Yes, really; and yes, it is as dumb as it sounds. I was really hooping that the implication would turn out to be a red herring and something else would be going on, like how the previous book centered around a vampire conspiracy only to reveal a human as the culprit; but no, it really was that terrible hackneyed cliche.

As for the Undead Kama Sutra of the title, it barely features in the plot at all. Tune in next time to find out!
