The Good Read
5.0 out of 5 stars The Good Read
Reviewed in Spain on 4 August 2023

I have read a lot of this authors series if you like action and amusing dialogue and can get over there political views they range from good to very enjoyable but after about five books in the various series they tend to get to much even ridiculous at times but up to that point they are still a good light read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another kick ass read by Deleo
Reviewed in the United States on 8 February 2016

Another great read by Deleo. Spoiler alert.

This one starts with Jedidiah Isreal Blake. Blake is a Dhampir. A Dhampir has the strengths and cravings of a vampire, but none of the weaknesses. Right now he's in the wood taking down a deer. He doesn't kill the deer, he just drinks some of her blood then lets her go.

Jed is a child prodigy. He completed college at sixteen in computer and engineering technology. He's twenty four and creates apps for computers and mobile technology. His monetary worth makes even thinking about it unnecessary. There is also a bit of consulting in his life on the down low.

Jed is 6'5. One big guy with the wealth and ability to do anything he wants to do.

His best friend is Erin. She lived next door to him as they were growing up.They did everything together. She taught him that he couldn't drink from people and to control his strength. When he does drink from people he inherits all their knowledge. Its something he doesn't do much of but sometimes this ability comes in mighty handy.

The first time Jed killed someone was when they were kids walking in the woods. They were approached by a man looking for his lost dog. Erin and Jed both knew this was a crock of S**t and knew this man meant them harm. Jed killed him, drank his blood and knew he was a pedophile who'd done this same thing many times.

Erin is Jed's Igor and she's now a police officer for the Sacramento Police Department. She calls Jed in when his expertise is needed. If there is blood at the scene Jed can taste that blood and draw visions of how it happened. He can also smell hints of anything connected to the murder. Since Erins goal is to be the youngest detective in the SPD Jed's help is invaluable. He's also well thought of by the police, CSI and forensics units of the PD.

Jed and Erin are also lovers as well as partners. They aren't exclusive though and Erin does date other guys and Jed does what he does.

The latest murder Jed and Erin investigate turns out to be a serial killer wanted overseas. Erin will be the bait and of course Jed will be her backup.

So begins another great read by Deleo.

This one has Jed, Erin, Jed's mother Jill who has always been his rock, his grandparents, mansions, an Erin who will do almost anything to become a detective, an Erin who tries to run every show, a serial killer, the death of that serial killer, Jed's Mothers new boyfriend, George Canelo, a problem he's having, his daughter Marilyn, her so called boyfriend, his thugs, his Father, the assassination of a Congressmans wife, her killer, his death, a CSI member named Kelly Lamb who's far from a fan of Jed and his computer, programs, a Kelly Lamb who will come to Jed for help, a weapons dealer named Al-Taei, the Muslim Brotherhood, the history of Jed's father, Jed's new driver, his Batmobile, a man named Brett Grein who works for the Govt., A Govt. that wants Jed to help them fight the bad guys, a Jed and Erin who are a team in more ways than one and Jed Blake doing his best to protect the country, take out the bad guys, protect those he loves and continue to survive. +

Five Stars.

I like everything Mr Delco. Writes, some more than others.

I was fortunate to review this as a short story before he completed. It is a very good pulp fiction action book as are all of his books.

Well written, non stop action along with humor.
Enjoy it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dhampir...a WINNER!!!
Reviewed in the United States on 2 February 2016

Mr. DeLeo, you did it again! Dhampir is a winner. The son of a vampire father and human mother, huh? Pulp fiction at it's best. "Darth Jed" and "Eerie" make a wonderful pair of crime fighters. Seeing Jedidiah's powers evolve is fascinating. Being able to filter out the evil he absorbs yet keep his humanity is just another example of how you instinctively know what your readers want. Your imagination knows no bounds. I love the fact that some people in the government understand that thinking and acting outside the box is essential to keep fighting the bad guys. You really see what's going on in the world and in every single one of your books your heroes try to right the wrongs. I can't wait for your next book and don't care if it's another Cold Blooded, Cantellli, Hard Case or Demon. I love them all!!! So...get back to work. You have too many fans out there who, like me, can't be kept waiting.
