King Maybe by Timothy Hallinan

5.0

We have come to expect certain things from the Junior Bender books: expert burglaries, sometimes in spite of himself; well-meaning, if bumbling, personal relationships; the coolest set of secondary characters since Fox Mulder hooked up with the Lone Gunmen; all tied together with a healthy dose of humor. And Hallinan does not disappoint. But King Maybe is also darker than we've seen before, from Junior ruminating on Gruddists, to a bad guy who is much closer to straight-up evil. Altogether, the most satisfying of all the Junior Benders. Highly recommended.
