America's mad, bad vampires, werewolves, zombies, and other goblins have been given legal rights, and now it's up to Monster Czar Mike Hoffmann to arrest and prosecute monsters for the crimes they commit. The story opens with Dracula in the docket charged with murder, and closes at a diverse Manhattan dinner party that includes vampires and werewolves. In between you encounter high-school werewolves, monster run cemeteries and theme parks, monster prisons, and a monster crime family led by a youthful creature named Father. Welcome to a new Monster America.

My first 1⭐️read in ages 👎🏽. This brought up interesting ideas about racism, multicultural societies, and minority rights. And it was set up as a fun paranormal horror romp - sorta campy and slightly noir. All reasons I wanted to like it way more than I did, but I just couldn‘t get over feeling like I was reading a draft of a novel instead of a polished book. Almost abandoned it several times.

Laura317 With a vampire as attorney, would he have to go to Night Court? 🤔 5y
