Quote from "School of Fish" by Amy Lane: Oh dear lord. "Feelings?" Jackson asked, appalled. "You want me to talk about my feelings? Werewolf fucking Jesus, when did that happen?"

Heh.

Quote from "Fish on a Bicycle" by Amy Lane: "My boss," the guy snuffled, "is going to kill me." "Is that like, 'My boyfriend's gonna kill me if I forget milk' kind of kill?" Jackson asked, prodding him again. "Or my drug-snorting, psychopathic, criminal, douchebag boss is going to stick a gun in my mouth and twitch?"

This really DOES beg for clarification, doesn't it?

Quote from "Fish in a Barrel" by Amy Lane: As they searched the shadows, Ellery was bumped from behind by a man in a silk suit, holding three drinks. "I'm sorry, are you just going to stand there?" he snapped. Ellery's eyes narrowed and his lip curled, and he eyed the man up and down with disdain. "Second year out of law school," he deduced. "You've lost that perpetual studying squint, you've had a couple of good paychecks and can afford the suit, and you're young enough to be out drinking on a Thursday night. But you're not old enough to know who's who in your town, and you think it makes you look tough to go bullying people in bars." He sniffer. "Walk around."

Snappy dialogue and beautiful put-downs are a favorite of mine. I really love this scene.

Quote from Amy Lane's "Red Fish, Dead Fish": There's things you have to remember about living with a ticking time bomb. Thing the first - just 'cause you can't hear it ticking doesn't mean the mechanism ain't a 'go'. Thing the second - just 'cause the bomb will probably not go off when you're in the room don't mean you won't get hurt. Thing the third - it's possible to control the blast. Or so I hoped. 'Cause the kid holding the gun at Alba's head was looking scared and shaky - and Sonny was looking like a dirty bomb.

So much fun to read! I love the extended simile through this passage.

Quote from "Red Fish, Dead Fish": An EXTREMELY uncomfortable half an hour later, he was hurrying to the morgue, Ellery trying to keep up at his side. Ellery's dress shoes rang sharply on the tile, and Jackson's tennies just sort of squeaked pathetically. Aces.

I love when authors take an element of the environment and use it to set a scene. This is fab.
