About this listen

It was 6 p.m. when the devil walked into my office and had a seat. Bounty hunter Victor McCain always wondered how his brother, Mikey, went from down-n-out loser to one of Louisville's richest men. Now he knew: his brother sold his soul to the devil. And in 24 hours, Mikey would die and spend eternity in hell unless Victor agreed to hunt down a thief, a woman as deadly as she is beautiful.

On a journey of murder and betrayal, Victor must now put his own soul at risk to save his only brother, battle a dark underground organization with the goal of nothing less than global war between Christians and Muslims, and fight creatures from man's darkest nightmares. Then there's the Hand of God, God's own bounty hunter. In the end, will he be friend or enemy? Only heaven knows.

Jack Reacher meets Lucifer

What other book might you compare The Hand of God to and why?

I would compare this to the Jack Reacher series. The strong tough guy against the rest of the world. The supernatural twist just adds to the story!

modern day sam spade in a supernatural thriller

Would you listen to The Hand of God again? Why?

The story is very fast paced and you can miss hints if you are not paying attention. I've listened to a few passages again already.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Hand of God?

The sequence that takes place on the farm and the main character and others gets surrounded in the barn.

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

I think the narrator should pick up their pace during the action sequences. This would add tension and a sense of the speed at which the action takes place. When I'm reading a book, I find myself reading faster during action sequences.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I love how the dark moments are laced with humor.

Better than expected!

I went into this book after hearing about it at comicpalooza in Houston. This is the first I have read from this author and I was pleasantly surprised. The story was unique and the book moved along at a steady pace. I actually didn’t realize I burned through it in a day until I was already at the end. Definitely worth a listen!

It was okay but....

At first, after listening to a couple of paragraphs, I thought, "This was a bad choice. I don't think I can listen to this. It's so poorly written."

It was about that time I discovered that the book is set in Louisville, KY. I lived in Louisville for several years with my husband , who was from near there. Though we no longer live there and my husband as passed away, I always loved the city. Listening to this story reminded me of my husband so much. It was like taking a tour of Louisville. All the places, streets and buildings, are real. You can go to Google maps and find them.

The story was kind of preposterous and the characters overblown and exaggerated. But the places are spot on. If you miss Louisville, or just want to visit, this book's for you. Otherwise, I can't really recommend it.

I suppose book two might be better. If it's also set in Louisville, I might read it, too. I miss the place.

Neo-Noir Mystery Thriller

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

It’s a bit difficult to put this book in a genre, as at times, it feels like a noir detective story, and then can go full on supernatural action.

I really enjoyed the character development of Victor McCain throughout this novel. The narration was spot on, with great voices for the various characters. I think you can tell that a story like this is successful when at the end, it leaves you wanting more. The Hand of God definitely left wanting more, and looking forward to seeing where Victor McCain’s story goes next.

Not bad but not great

A nice start to what appears to be a promising series. The writing and story telling has some inconsistencies but there is decent character development, the story moves right along. There is plenty of action. The protagonist has a nice sense of humor. However, the protagonist also seems to spontaneously lose his empathy or morality when it comes to killing. It just seems hard to believe after surviving the military/war and now back working for a period in the US as a bounty hunter that in less than a 24 hour period he falls from grace so abruptly and suddenly. The story doesn't support this important event - it isn't clear the trigger (yea the girl partially but it doesn't feel right or complete). Anyway, onto the next book in the series.
