The characters are generally interesting with pregnant assassins, demolition experts and generally naughty rogues but I think the downside due to the shortness of the book, doesn’t have that many if any well developed enough for my liking, could of meated out a few. This is a wild western/alternative future/caper type story.īut it is a short one (150 pages approx.) and is about a band of rogues, that are brought together by our main hero Houndstooth to pull off an operation to rid an area in the murky marshlands of Louisiana of lot’s and lot’s of feral Hippos. Other Hippo’s are tame, trained and people in this story ride them like horses and are very fond of them. Some of these Hippo’s have gone feral and wild and have forced people out of certain areas of America due to their size, behaviour and all round danger levels they offer.
The story is about an alternative America in the late 19th century, where based on real life plans which didn’t quite happen, Hippo’s have been brought over and bred in America for meat. The premise had me gripped enough that I even pre-ordered it. I stumbled across this book on Amazon Kindle, recommended for you. Book #28 – River of Teeth by Sarah Gailey
