#20 - The Coyote Kings of the Space Age Bachelor Pad, by Minister Faust

[chipmunk_planet]

Hamza and Yehat are ultimately geeky black college-educated roommates in Edmonton, Canada, best friends since grade school, who run day camps for the kids in their neighborhood and are two all-around nice guys. But they're what you might call underachievers: Hamza's a dish-washer, Yehat works at the local movie rental store. But they're the Coyote

I had POV issues, too, and the guy with the awful dialect was just unreadable.

But you're right, the characters ROCKED. And I loved getting to read some urban fantasy that wasn't all fairies & Irish folklore. I dont' generally like urban fantasy at all because the cities don't feel real, and in this one not just the city but the neighborhoods were distinct and detailed.

Plus, you have to love a character who moves the stack of comics off his table and lists the titles. Geekiest book ever.

This books sounds like a lot of fun! Definitely putting it on my TR shelf. :D

So I checked out this book from the library and after the first chapter I'm not sure I want to continue. The pseudo-intellectual snob viewpoint has already turned me off. Should I continue on or is this the general idea of what the book will continue to be like?
