Trash Fire Necromancer, Part Nine

Are you a fan of John Constantine?

Have you been lured in by Harry Dresden?

Against your better judgment, are you entranced by the Trash Fire Magicians, those hapless practitioners of various arcane arts who can't seem to stop pissing off people more powerful than they are (usually for a good cause though), and then having to make terrible choices to get out of it?

HAVE I GOT A NECROMANCER FOR YOU

His family is dead, he's being hunted by at least three different powerful entities all of whom want him for one thing or another, and he can't stop seeing dead people. Eric Carter is a hot mess, in several different senses of the phrase over the course of several novels. His friends want to punch him and his enemies want to marry him. He Goes Through Some Shit. And this is the latest (and possibly the last) adventure.

BUT FEAR NOT. If you want to start from the beginning, I have five free copies of the first book for you! And if you don't snag one, it's on sale for $1.99 on Amazon today (July 11th 2023).

Go on, have a look. You know you want to.

"I have a bag over my head. I hate having a bag over my head. It's always the same goddamn thing with kidnappers. "Let's put a bag over his head. That way he won't know what's happening!" I know what's happening. I'm being kidnapped. Don't have to be Sherlock fucking Holmes to figure that one out. Oh, and protect the location of your secret hideout? Really? Do you have any idea how easy it is to track a cell phone? I can feel mine inside my pocket. But wait! What about frightening and disorienting your victim? Blow me. I'm already disoriented. Fucking flash-bang did that for me. And frightened? Seriously? Do you have any idea how many times I've been kidnapped, stuck in a trunk, handcuffed, or left for dead in the desert? Try something new. Shoot me into space or something" - Eric Carter, Bottle Demon by Stephen Blackmoore

Similar little details in urban fantasy books

I am currently reading a book in which the main character decides to steal a car to get to a location. He decides to pick a fancy car because he figures that it would belong to someone who is well off. He doesn't want to ruin a person isn't well off day.

I read something similar in the Sandman Slim series by Richard Kadrey. Main character stole cars all the time.

I think I also read something similar in the Eric Carter series by Stephen Blackmoore.

It appears that all these urban fantasy authors take inspiration from each other.

It's such a nice detail to include that the main character is only stealing a rich person's car because they could afford it.

Today We Honor Eric B. & Rakim

In 1987, during the golden era of hip-hop culture, there was a seismic shift in the complexity of rap activated by Eric B. & Rakim and their album Paid in Full.

Rakim introduced internal rhyme schemes that pushed rap into new directions and challenged every MC that followed.

“I was shooting for something different,” Rakim told NPR in 2009. “You know, like, some of my influence was John Coltrane. I played the sax as well. So, listening to him play in the different rhythms that he had, I was trying to write my rhymes as if I was a saxophone player.”

Tom Terrell of NPR called them “the most influential DJ/MC combo in contemporary pop music period.”

Paid In Full was ground breaking and paved the way for MCs who elevated the culture.

“A group of ghosts is a fraid. No, really. I don’t know what jackass came up with that one, but it’s a real thing. A fraid of ghosts. Clearly, they’ve never seen a group of ghosts. Otherwise it’d be a “Pants-Shitting Terror” of ghosts.” - Eric Carter, Broken Souls by Stephen Blackmoore

So, I mentioned my Agent Cuddy AU before, and by that I mean...

Gregory House fought in WWII. He was a decent soldier, but a better spy, however, he was sent back out into the warzone for mouthing off too much. He lost his leg in the war, leaving him with a shoddy prosthetic, a cane, and a limp. [Yes, he’s like if Sousa was an asshole. Also I gave him his cane instead of the crutch, because, like in House MD canon, House is knowingly punishing himself, so of course he’d go with the cane instead of the more practical and comfortable crutch like Sousa had.]

Lisa Cuddy worked alongside Project Rebirth during the war, even allegedly becoming romantically involved with Lucas Douglas, aka, Captain America [yeah yeah, I know. Not my fav place for him either, but I think it fits. He’s a dorky little guy and he’s genuinely good, so, you know, it works well enough]. She was one of the best agents they had, but after the war she was put back into the SSR, forcing her to earn their respect all over again.

James Wilson is the butler to young, rich, and insanely brilliant Dr. Robert Chase. James often finds himself caught up in Lisa’s cases and adventures, proving to be a loyal and helpful friend in even the most complicated and dangerous of situations. He is married to Julie Wilson. [because this is the 1940s, she can’t really cheat, get a divorce, and be alright financially right away, so in my mind she doesn’t cheat here. I would have him be married to his first wife, but then we’d have Sam Wilson, and that’s already a mcu character and I’d like to avoid confusion]

Eric Foreman also works for the SSR. He follows his orders, whether he agrees with them or not. He later takes over as chief.

Dr. Robert Chase is a brilliant, young, rich, somewhat insane weapons inventor. He met and befriended Lisa during the war, but afterwards, he recruited her to clear his name. See, Dr. Chase had indirectly killed a (different) genocidal dictator, and the SSR is out for his arrest.

Allison Cameron is a waitress who quickly becomes one of Lisa’s closest friends and allies.

Remy Hadley, known only as “Thirteen” in the spy circuit, was trained in the Red Room. She proves to be one of Lisa’s biggest adversaries, but also turns out to be useful later on.

Amber Volakis is a brilliant actress who later gets caught up in something bigger than herself. She aims for genius, but ends up in unhinged territory.

Jessica Adams is a nurse Greg meets while in Los Angeles. She proves to be a valuable ally when Lisa is injured.

Lawrence Kutner, Jeffrey Cole, and Chris Taub are all part of the 107th, which are still active even after the war.

Dr. Travis Brennan [...whatever the fuck samberly was good for lmao. It can’t be taub bc samberly gets no bitches and taub very much somehow gets bitches]

Chi Park is Lisa’s connection at the phone company.
