Dragons? Vampires? Unicorns? Mallory's your man.
Down on his luck (naturally) Big Apple gumshoe JOHN JUSTIN MALLORY needs a bit of sunshine in his life when we first meet him in 1987's Stalking the Unicorn.
His wife has has run off with his partner, who's also taken a powder. As a eresult, the business is going to pot as well, and just to add to the fun a couple of legbreakers are on his case. no wonder his drinking's getting out of hand.
Or at least that's what he keeps telling himself -- that it's the booze getting to him. How else to explain that's he's suddenly found himself in a bizarro parallel universe Manhattan populated by demons, rogue elephants, dragons, kinky catwomen, vampires, and horny leprachauns. Or the fact a small green elf has apparently hired him to recover a missing unicorn.
Stalking the Unicorn was always something of a cult fave, and twenty years later, sci-fi author decided to bring Mallory back.
