About this listen
Always read the fine print. Especially when you’re making a deal with the devil.
Because demons are sneaky bastards.
That’s how they got me. Well, and the rest of my hometown. A few hours of what I asked for and then we were all dragged to Hell. Luckily, those jokes about lawyers and Hell are pretty accurate. After a lengthy court case downstairs, I’ve been released on Hell’s very first work-release program with a time limit and a quota. All I have to do is hunt down and kill the things that go bump in the night like; rawheads, poltergeists, bunyips, dab tsogs, and harvest gods. If I kill enough to meet my quota, the souls of the other townsfolk are set free. If I don’t, we all stay downstairs...permanently. So, no pressure or anything.
On top of that suck salad, a tribe of cannibals want to put me on the menu, a pair of murderous Pucas are taking people joy-riding, and a teenage hitchhiker with a hot-handed problem is riding shotgun.
So, when I heard about a big daddy demon that was hellbent on taking me back downstairs ahead of schedule, I knew it was time for another challenge: Figure out how to ice a demon. If I succeed, all the souls in my deal, including mine, go free. If I fail...well, at least I’ll go down swinging.
But, I’ve got Peeps, whiskey, and a sawed-off. What more does a gal need to do the job?

Story
In the world’s most magical metropolis where spirits run noodle shops and cash-strapped dragons stage photo-ops for tourists, people still think fairies are nothing but stories, and that’s exactly how the fairies like it. It’s a lot easier to feast on humanity’s dreams when no one believes you exist. But while this arrangement works splendidly for most fair folk, Lola isn’t one of the lucky ones.

But Shining is now something more than human. And the scrapyard is no longer just a scrapyard, but a place full of secrets. This life she has built, while empty, is predictable and safe. Until the only friend left from her previous life shows up, dead, in the back of a scrapped Tesla warplane. Clutched in her cold fingers is a note to Shining - warning her of a coming attack.

A world on the precipice of the apocalypse. A secret forged in the flames of war. A chance to start over. For John Sutton, only one of those three things matters. Retired from a decade of brutal war, he wants nothing more than a quiet pastoral life while he does his best to stem the steady increase of his Doom Points before they hit 100, signaling the start of the end. He’s been given a small farm on the outskirts of the empire as thanks for his service, but no matter how far he travels, it's impossible to escape the war's devastating effects on the world.

The last thing he expects to hear is that his son Isiah has been murdered, along with Isiah’s white husband, Derek. Ike had never fully accepted his son but is devastated by his loss.

It doesn’t take this comic book obsessed 21-year-old long to figure out what’s going on: somehow, she’s developed super powers. And she’s not the only one; across the country, people are coming forward and sharing their gifts with the world.

I used to eat rocks as a child. The family doctor diagnosed me with pica, dooming me to years of intensive therapy and extensive dentistry work. It wouldn’t be until much later that I would understand the all-consuming, insatiable craving that spurred me to eat a variety of rocks and minerals wasn’t a mental disorder, but an innate gift that allows me to extract the magic contained inside them: tourmaline for speed, celestite for strength, augite for a powerful laxative effect (that I had to discover the hard way).

Fresh and exciting
Great Start to a series. We jump right into the middle of the action and slowly learn bits and pieces of the MFC's background. The slow reveal really heightens the tension and drives interest. She does make a few wrong moves but apparently she's still getting her feet under her at hunting. The characters are solidly crafted and interesting. I could easily picture them and their mannerisms. The narration is good - it really supports the story.

I was so impressed. Normally I’ll avoid author narrated books but I have to admit, she’s really good and the story was just fun. Great world building and a compelling “Supernatural” esque story. Fans of the genre won’t be disappointed

There's no deal like a bad deal
Bane has one hell of a debt to pay. The only way to pay off that debt is to hunt down those who go bump in the night. Along the way we'll meet cannibals, demons, hunters, and an unwitting hitchhiker.
This is a fun ride of a book, quirky dark humor from a talented author, I look forward to the next book.

New Author, New Series, Read!
It's always a little uncertain when you pick up a novel from a new author and a new series. I do it because I'm looking for books I can read (hopefully more than one book) where I enjoy the books, enjoy the series, and enjoy the characters. With luck, I'll have some fun along the way.
At this point, I'm well along in this series and decided I should share my thoughts with folks who are considering whether this first book in a series is worth buying.
Oh ya.
This series is amazing in the way it starts out as just fun stuff. If you like the Supernatural TV series, you should already be reading this series of books. Lots of fun supernatural creatures, good characters, interesting story, lots of action, told in a deceptively simple and honest narrative that will have you thinking of these characters as your friends--or at least people you know--in no time at all.
It's true that the main character's (Bane's) language can be a little crude at times. But don't worry. Rosetta's there to take her to task for her potty mouth. Noah's along for the ride... literally... and there's always some big bad lurking just on this side of radio reception that will lead to the next great adventure. But it's so much more wonderfully complex than that. And it's a great listen, too. I really like the narrator. I think she captures the characters extremely well. She does an especially great job of sounding like I think the main character would. And I love the humor! It's so hard to find these days.
The best news? There are tons of books in this series and they're coming out as audible books fast and furious. Heck, by the time you read this, the whole series will probably be done. So no George R. R. Martin here. No Robert Jordan. If you're the type who can't wait for the next book to come out, this is a great series. If you're always looking for another great book to read, this series has you covered.
I'll just add that now that I'm way into the series, everything you read seems like it comes into play later in an unexpected way. Nothing is wasted or throw-away. Each book leads seamlessly into the next book. The series all hangs together. There's real danger, there's real emotion, and there's lots of energy--and some nice sass that keeps everything moving and brings a smile to your face. And surprises, too. Just when I think I know what's going to happen next, something better happens that I couldn't even imagine.
So... highly recommended. Not just this book, but the whole series (at least what I've read so far). Get to it.

Please Ms.Wolfe, stop narrating your stories!
I love the stories and the world Ms.Wolfe Has created but the self Narration is killing me. It really kills the story and prevents me from enjoying another book in the series. There are so many great voice actors that could really make these stories something really special. Instead the narration is so monotone and boring, I want a refund
