I’ve read mostly James R. Tuck‘s Deacon Chalk series, which is in his unrelenting Dark Urban fantasy style. Having a female cowriter for Robin Hood Demon’s Bane curtailed it not a whit.
Whether short story or full novel, Mr. Tuck creates a testosterone-driven roller coaster ride . Non-stop action beginning to end, with nothing wasted – even the slow build up the hill for the next fall into oblivion. The author promises gritty, violent mayhem and delivers.
In person at conventions, he is thoughtful and informative. If you want well-written books without much in the way of pesky emotions, look him up.
