  • Antihero: His books tend to star these sorts of characters.
    • Frank is an excellent example of this, being the nephew of the Devil.
    • Theodore Crane kills people to assume their lives but is, nominally, on the side of the angels.
    • Kallie is an assassin who happens to work for the Church of a Dark Fantasy world dying from the Zombie Apocalypse.
  • Anti Anti Christ: Frank, again, is the nephew of the Devil but hunts demons.
  • Black-and-Gray Morality: A feature in his Demon Squad, Clandestine Daze, and other works.

  • Darker and Edgier: Some have described his Demon Squad books as The mean streets of the Dresden Files.
  • Dark Fantasy: Is a frequent author of these kind of books.
    • The Blood War Trilogy certainly qualifies.
    • As does Dirge.
  • Epic Fantasy: His Blood War trilogy is one of these.
  • Genre-Busting: Dark Fantasy Zombie Apocalypse, Cowboy Supernatural Tales, Urban Fantasy Demonology, and so on are just the tamer examples of his work.
  • Grand Theft Me: The premise of Clandestine Daze, though assuming the lives of his victims rather than their physical bodies.
  • Horror: All of his books, even those outside the genre, have elements of this.
  • Urban Fantasy: May be a pioneer in the idea of Dark Urban Fantasy.
    • The Demon Squad books take place squarely in this genre.
