The Undead Kama Sutra (Felix Gomez, Book 3) Review"The Undead Kama Sutra" is Acevedo's third installment in the Felix Gomez series and while I have some minor quibbles, the overall effort shows growth and maturity in the writing and in the character development. Acevedo's Felix Gomez is an Iraq War vet turned vampire who has become a hard boiled private investigator in a classic noir sense. He lazily relies on his supernatural powers (hypnosis, stealth, etc.) to solve everyday cases and make a living while trying to balance his past as a human with his needs as a vampire.Acevedo has created a plausible world of modern vampires that rivals that of Charlie Huston (see "Half The Blood In Brooklyn"). Both series portray the vampire world as coexisting in our modern world but in highly secretive fashion, with Gomez governed by and assisting, at times, the Araneum, a governing council for vampire behavior. While the texture and mood of their modern day vampire worlds are clearly different in the renderings of Huston and Acevedo, the vampire/human relationships and interactions and the philosophy, "laws", and governing structure underpinning their worlds are fun to unravel.
In this third installment, Felix is searching for the complete "The Undead Kama Sutra", a manual of sexual positions that promises great psychic benefits for vampires. This search ultimately teams him with Carmen Arellano, a sex driven vampire already deep into research on the manual. Their search is interrupted by the death of an alien who issues a cryptic warning to Felix to "find Goodman and save the Earth women".
This dying request launches an extended investigation that ultimately involves vampires, other extra-terrestrials, governmental and military conspiracies, a cosmetic industry conspiracy with aliens, a pretty darn good mystery, and some heavy discussion of sexual encounters that remain more talked about than fulfilled. Wow! If all that does not scare you off, then jump into the strange world of Mario Acevedo...it is a fun world to visit.
I enjoy reading the details of the rules and procedures for vampires living among the humans in Felix's life. For example, his joy at eating hot Mexican food laced with whole blood, or the various outcomes of his "fanging" a human along with how he controls the enzymes that have various functions in the process. Acevedo creates interesting fully fleshed characters and his plots are often unique to this genre. He still has problems with pacing at times, but that is becoming a minor quibble as his works matures. I recommend this series to fans of vampire literature or of supernatural noir.The Undead Kama Sutra (Felix Gomez, Book 3) Overview
