Sidekick Saturday #6 – Comedic Relief

Sidekick Saturday is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by Jaclyn at JC’s Book Haven. There are many secondary characters that are as great as the primaries. In some cases, the sidekicks actually steal the show and you like them better than the heroine or hero. Maybe they didn’t have enough page time for how great they were. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

• Choose a sidekick *or someone other than the hero or heroine* that you would like to put in the spotlight that fits in this week’s type
• Share a picture (if possible) and information about the character
• Give the title and author of a book the character can be found in
• Please don’t include too many spoilers when describing why the character is such a great sidekick
• Put your link in the Linky thing and comment

This week, Jaclyn has chosen a side character who gives some comedic relief

My choice is Simon Hunt from Dannika Dark’s Mageri series. He is such a hoot, and quite provoking at times as well. He is the perfect sidekick for loosening things up in a tense situation!

“I never arrive unannounced without something big and juicy in hand.” (From Sterling)

“Self-doubt is a persuasive mistress; careful not to shag her or you’ll never get your balls back.” (From Twist)

“So I flirt with disaster once or twice. Who doesn’t?”
He snorted. “You don’t just flirt with disaster, you have intercourse with it.” (From Impulse)

Simon laughed heartily. “I’m afraid the rest of us have to find talents to get our women into bed. Of course once they’re there, I have other talents that keep them right where they are.”
“Handcuffs hardly count,” Christian said offhandedly.
“If you mean the ladies cuffing me to the bed so they can explore Hunt Island,” he said, rubbing his chest, “…then point taken. These hands are capable of making any female climax by the mere brush of a pinky across her bare breast.”
“I must have gone to the wrong island,” I said with a private laugh.” (From Impulse)

So, what about you? Who is your comedic relief sidekick for this Saturday?

Thanks for stopping by! Happy reading.

    • LOL! I haven’t read the Iron Druid series, but a snarky dog sounds like a win!

      Thanks for stopping by Traci 🙂

    • LOL isn’t it nice that we won’t ever run out of reads? And I think Sterling is $.99 on kindle now…

      Have a great Sunday Robyn, and thanks for stopping by!

    • Simon is hilarious! I’m sure I could have found lots more quotes by him, but I have a lot of stuff highlighted on my kindle, and I was really tired yesterday…

      Thanks for stopping by Jaclyn!
