A fresh take on supernatural detectives!

Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2021

Verified Purchase

A fresh take on supernatural detectives: John Conquer is an African American veteran who had his life shattered by crime and after returning from his Vietnam tour, sets up as a detective who, although not averse to pick up adultery cases, is more recognized by his knowledge of the supernatural.

The book has several short stories with cases ranging from vampires (also a fresh take), monsters, and of course, the most dangerous creatures, humans.

The prose is agile and the stories entertaining, I am eagerly waiting volume two, which gets an extract that will keep you waiting.

Recommended!

Another great book by Erdelac. He writes so many different styles, and I love it. This one is in Harlem in the mid 70’s. Definitely a new character to follow. I recommend this, and also his other books!

Can't get enough of John Conquer!

Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2021

Verified Purchase

Fantastic book for action, occult detective and monster hunter fans. A combination of Shaft with Blade is the closest I can come to a description - and there's even a reference to Blacula! I can't wait for more of the supernatural brother like no other and the 70s funk goodness contained within! Erdelac doesn't disappoint and all of his other books are highly recommended too!

Action Packed New York Occult Detective

Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2021

I'm not some professional book reviewer. Please don't expect some expert analysis of the book.

Conquer contains several short stories of the title character, John Conquer, and they're all quite entertaining.

Conquer is a hard working detective in New York City during the 1970s who ends up finding himself wrapped up in various dangerous occult affairs in what reads to me as an homage(?) to the Blaxploitation genre. Each short story is unique in the approach it takes to getting Conquer involved in the occult issue for that story. Without giving anything away, all but one was something new that I hadn't really heard of before in some other book, a movie or a television show.

As in Edward's previous stories and books, he has a great way of describing scenes and puts effort into researching time periods & locations, helping you picture them, drawing you in. The look of a bar, or music playing on a radio, to the general life on the street.

My only desire was I occasionally found myself wanting one or two of the stories to be a little more fleshed out by just a couple pages more. Perhaps Conquer seemed to get into the thick of it by accident, or a fight seemed to end rather quickly. Maybe it's just that I was drawn in and found myself at the end too quickly, wanting more.

Either way, I'm thrilled this says it's a series and this is just book one. I can't wait to read more John Conquer in the future.
