Review - Edmund, Accountant of the Night by Angel Martinez
My rating: 
Edmund has been on the run from Hunters for a long time. The Hunters are single-minded in their pursuit of magical beings, whom they tear apart when they catch them. It’s not like Edmund is a danger to anyone. He may be a vampire, but he’s a vampire fruit bat. The only thing he sucks the life out of is ripe fruit. In desperation, Edmund flees to Mereston, although he’s not sure he will be welcomed even there.

Everyone has a guaranteed basic income and the freedom to pursue their interests. But the Guardians permit no dissent. Those who do speak out tend to disappear. River works in the diplomatic service for the Guardians, dealing with other aliens who come to Earth.

Review - Lazarus, Home from the War by E. H. Lupton
My rating:
Lazarus has returned home from the war in Southeast Asia and is trying to get used to civilian life. It isn’t easy, since he has what we now call post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It gives him flashbacks that can result in blackouts. The episodes come at some of the most inconvenient times, like when he meets an interesting man in a convenience store. As a neurologist, Eli recognizes Laz’s condition.
