El hombre mediocre publicado en el año 1913, trata sobre la naturaleza del hombre, oponiendo dos tipos de personalidades: la del hombre mediocre y la del idealista. Analiza las características morales de cada uno, las formas y papeles que estas personalidades han adoptado en la historia, la sociedad y la cultura. José Ingenieros dice que "no hay hombres iguales", y los divide a su vez en tres tipos: "El hombre inferior, el hombre mediocre y el hombre superior", pero no arremete contra los dos primeros, sino que hace ver a los tres y exalta al segundo. El hombre mediocre es incapaz de usar su imaginación para concebir ideales que le propongan un futuro por el cual luchar. Sumiso a toda rutina, a los prejuicios, a las domesticidades, parte de un rebaño o colectividad, cuyas acciones o motivos no cuestiona sino que sigue ciegamente. Dócil, maleable, ignorante, un ser vegetativo, carente de personalidad, contrario a la perfección, solidario y cómplice de los intereses creados que lo hacen borrego del rebaño social. Los mediocres no son genios, ni héroes, ni santos. Un hombre mediocre no acepta ideas distintas a las que ya ha recibido por tradición, sin darse cuenta de que justamente las creencias son relativas a quien las cree, pudiendo existir hombres con ideas totalmente contrarias al mismo tiempo. Entra en lucha contra el idealismo por envidia, intenta opacar toda acción noble, porque sabe que su existencia depende de que el idealista nunca sea reconocido y de que no se ponga por encima de sí.

A shapeshifting demon is bumping off Crimson Seal's biggest clients in gruesomely unpleasant ways. All of them seem to have links to the biggest anti-spectral organization in the city, which means they had politically powerful human friends and even more supernaturally powerful enemies.Tim Lovecraft knows this isn't going to be like any other case he's been assigned to since joining the Special Investigations Unit. Everyone is going to be watching his progress very closely - and certain unspeakable entities don't want him to solve it.In most other respects, Tim's life is the same. His boss is still a demon with two heads and no regard for the company's scent-free workplace policy. His bloodsucking vampire brother, Keef, still hasn't moved out of his apartment. His semi-paranoid friend Stake is still working in security but is now running his own company like a private army prepping for the undead apocalypse. His interfering mother is still trying to set him up with psychics. And his police sergeant girlfriend Tabitha is too busy working her own cases to return his calls.Tim has also been assigned a trainee, a half-vampire who hates humans with a passion that borders on murderous. As the bodies and insurable losses pile up, Tim isn't sure who to trust or where to turn for answers.Like Demonic Indemnity, Infernal Negligence is just another hilariously evil day in the supernatural insurance business.

Tim Lovecraft has been sent to the small town of Abomination to investigate an agent who has mysteriously disappeared after submitting a large number of highly suspicious claims.First on the list is a mauling at a werewolf safari park and petting zoo that is staffed entirely by ex-cons and run by a man with a checkered past and a raging Narlune addiction. Next is a total (and supposedly accidental) exsanguination at a craft blood brewery run by twin satyrs who are not as diligent as they should be about how they source their primary ingredient. And last but not least is a possessed vehicle rampage at a drive in/used car lot/hot tub emporium run by a man who isn't really a vampire but likes to play one on TV.As he begins to look more closely into each, Tim starts to get the impression that things in Abomination are not remotely what they seem. Menaced by demon gangsters and a sex-and-musical-theatre-crazed succubus, Tim quickly realizes that he may have made a mistake in leaving the big city - and sinister municipal forces are determined to make sure that he never returns.The third book in the Demonic Indemnity series is another madcap reminder that in supernatural insurance, everyone can hear you scream because it's part of the job.
