Red Hot Steele

Daggers & Steele, Book 1

By: Alex P. Berg

Narrated by: Alex P. Berg

Detective Jake Daggers likes his murder investigations the way he likes his women - straightforward, easy, and with a killer body.

So when his older-than-dust partner throws his back out on a goblin raid, his captain assigns him a new running mate - a sexy young half-elf by the name of Shay Steele.

It seems like a match made in Daggers' imagination, but Steele's no pushover. She's a powerful forensic psychic, and she's got sass oozing out of her boots.

In a debut case teeming with fire mages, foundries, and a dead guy who's crispier than bacon, it's pretty clear Daggers isn't the only one getting a heaping helping of RED HOT STEELE.

Loved this fun fantasy mystery book

What made the experience of listening to Red Hot Steele the most enjoyable?

Red Hot Steele (Daggers & Steele #1) by Alex P. Berg is a fun, snarky, clever book that I gulped down in one read. What fun! Witty, good mystery, great fantasy, crazy characters, snappy dialogue, and it made me smile a lot! Just what I needed! I listened to the audio version and the narration was perfect. Great job. I originally gave it a 4 star but I just kept thinking of it so if it was effecting me that much I figured it was worth a 5 star, esp. when I wanted the next book right away.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

it was and i did

More

I tried to buy his other novels but they are not in English. How do I find the others in an English translation? I loved this story.

Kinda grew on me.

I didn't care for the narration when I started the book so I put it away for a few weeks. I decide try it again and realized his quirky way of speaking fit right in with his main character! I liked the relationship he has with Daisy and found it intetesting the lack of technology involved.

Red Hot Steel is NOT So Hot

Story was O. K. The reader did a good job. The story line and plot were weak. It is an O. K. read for some, but I've read better (listened to) better books.

so the elven version of Psych?

I thought for a while that this was a children's book. It wasn't bad, just kinda like a tv show.
