The Nine Lives of Catseye Gomez

I first read it years and years ago when I was (probably too) young and I absolutely loved it. I just got it again and I can't wait to reread it! I think Gomez was the one who sparked my eternal love for the cynical, antihero character.

This is one of the funniest fantasy books I've ever read. Brilliantly done!

This was one of the first science fiction books I picked up off the bookshelves. It was the one that got me hooked. It's a great, entertaining blend of science fiction and fantasy starring a streetwise, one-eyed cat out to solve a murder mystery. I strongly recommend this book to any science fiction or mystery reader.

If you liked Brin's Uplift Series, you'll like this story. Man has found a way to raise the intelligence of animals and making them thinking, reasoning beings (i'm not gonna tell you how), and of course this brings on a whole new set of social problems. Read the book. It was a fun read, I read it through in only two sittings. Simon Hawke has written a humorous and entertaining tale. Catseye was a great character, callus with a wicked sence of irony. The book had me laughing out loud.

This book is great. While cat books seem to be "in style" this one is different. There is an explanation for why the "cat" is able to solve mysteries, talk, etc.(I won't give that one away!) He is like his favorite detectives, Mike Hammer and Travis McGee. I hope there is a sequel to this one!!!
