highly recommended
Even better than the first book!
Studying to become one of America's defenses against the paranormal, federal agents at the
Bureau
13 Academy are thrown into the real world when a mysterious enemy lets loose every monster the Bureau ever had captured. And that was only to cover up the real crime...
Personal favorite of mine
I'm a huge fan of gaming novels and this one series is at the top of my favorites list. If you ever wanted to read a novel of a great gaming session this series has that in spades. I, too, find this one even better than the first book (though the still out of print third book "Full Moonster" is my all time favorite). If you've read the Crimson Skies novels or the Dragonlance Chronicles than you know what I'm talking about. That sense of action and adventure you ususally only get by playing the damn game yourself.
Do yourself a favor and sit down and enjoy this fun read.

Even Better Than the First book!
Wow. These just keep getting better and better. I really didn't think Mr. Pollotta could top the first book,
BUREAU
13, but he did it in this one. The big fight at the secret jail was funny and exciting (yes, I did recognize most of the monsters used), and the vampire football team was the most hilarious thing I ever read. And the terrible events at the motel had my heart pounding. For Fantasy humor novels, these have some really scary scenes in them. With things like BLADE and X-FILES on the big screen, why haven't these wonderful books been made into movies yet? Any chance there is a Bureau 13 fan club out there on the web?

Can we say biased???
I enjoyed the first book and was surprised to see me in the next two (no, I'd never run the games with him). Definately a cousin of X-Files and MIB and would be a great movie. If you like his stuff, you should look for more under his other aliases: Nick Smith and Jack Hopkins (there are more, but even I can't keep track of them all )
Loved it !!!!
This one is a keeper. I've read it twice, and I'm holding on to it to read again someday.
This novel was my first exposure to the
Bureau
13 books, and I went on to collected the others after reading it.
Many writers take a couple good ideas and reveal them slowly in a story. You're often left feeling short-shifted until you find that the writer was simply saving additional ideas to miserly hand out in future novels.
Not Nick. In this tail, he starts the concepts flowing and doesn't stop until the final page. He does this with the confidence that he'll simply come up with new ideas when he goes on to write future stories.
Bravo.

PROTECTING AMERICA FROM EVERYTHING...Robot kidnappers, poltergeist weapon-smugglers, demon terrorists, gremlin moonshiners... '
Bureau
13' is the ultra-covert branch of the FBI assigned to handle supernatural criminals. The public doesn't know they exist, the President denies any knowledge of their actions, and not every Bureau 13 operative is a human being. Yet these heavily-armed federal agents are America's first, last and only line of defense against the growing tide of monstrous evil. SILVER BULLETS ARE USELESS Hell is literally set loose on Earth during a massive jailbreak from the Bureau 13 Holding Facility. Among the horde of unkillable creatures is a madman with a plan to siphon off all of the magic in the world and become a god! Not good. Fighting every inch of the way to track the lethal escaped lunatic, Ed and his team of Green Berets and wizards grab some students from the Bureau Training Academy to replenish their weakened ranks. But the last to graduate is often the first to die....
