About this listen
Nobody knows the seedy underbelly of Las Vegas like Daniel Faust, a sorcerer for hire and ex-gangster who uses black magic and bullets to solve his clients' problems. When an old man comes seeking vengeance for his murdered granddaughter, what looks like a simple job quickly spirals out of control.
Soon Daniel stands in the crossfire between a murderous porn director; a corrupt cop with a quick trigger finger; and his own former employer, a racket boss who isn't entirely human. Then there's Caitlin: brilliant, beautiful, and the lethal right hand of a demon prince.
A man named Faust should know what happens when you rub shoulders with demons. Still Daniel can't resist being drawn to Caitlin's flame as they race to unlock the secret of the Etruscan Box, a relic that people all over town are dying - and killing - to get their hands on. As the bodies drop and the double-crosses pile up, Daniel will need every shred of his wits, courage, and sheer ruthlessness just to survive.
Daniel Faust knew he was standing with one foot over the brink of hell. He's about to find out just how far he can fall.

Story
Marie Reinhart is an NYPD detective on the trail of a serial killer. When she sleeps, though, she dreams of other lives; she dreams of being a knight, in strange wars and strange worlds. On the other side of the city, Nessa Roth is a college professor trapped in a loveless marriage, an unwilling prop in a political dynasty. She's also a fledgling witch, weaving poppets and tiny spells behind closed doors. When Marie's case draws her into Nessa's path, sparks fly. What comes next is more than a furtive whirlwind affair; it's the first pebbles of an avalanche.

Felix Castor is a freelance exorcist, and London is his stomping ground. It may seem like a good ghostbuster can charge what he likes and enjoy a hell of a lifestyle, but there's a risk: sooner or later he's going to take on a spirit that's too strong for him. When Castor accepts a seemingly simple ghost-hunting case at a museum in the shadowy heart of London, what should have been a perfectly straightforward exorcism is rapidly turning into the Who Can Kill Castor First Show, with demons and ghosts all keen to claim the big prize.

Story
Alex Verus is part of a world hidden in plain sight, running a magic shop in London. And while Alex's own powers aren't as showy as some mages, he does have the advantage of foreseeing the possible future-allowing him to pull off operations that have a million-to-one-chance of success. But when Alex is approached by multiple factions to crack open a relic from a long-ago mage war, he knows that whatever's inside must be beyond powerful.

Story
When he was 19, James Stark was considered to be one of the greatest natural magicians, a reputation that got him demon-snatched and sent downtown - to Hell - where he survived as a gladiator, a sideshow freak entertaining Satan's fallen angels. That was 11 years ago. Now, the hitman who goes only by Stark has escaped and is back in L.A. Armed with a fortune-telling coin, a black bone knife, and an infernal key, Stark is determined to destroy the magic circle.

Excellent Story, Distracting Sound Engineering

I love this book

Just to address this, a lot of other commenters compare this to the Dresden files, and there are some similarities especially at the beginning but Jim Butcher does not have a monopoly on the genre. Every magical detective novel is likely to have some overlap but the style of this author is different and thus far it's pretty good.
Pretty solid fantasy detective novel

But I’ve listened to 100s of audiobooks at this point and I’ve never come across a narrator who was so awful with female voices. It took a lot away from the listening pleasure. To the point where I’m 50/50 on continuing the series.
Good Story, Awful Narrator

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I couldn't stop listening to this book and ended up getting all the books in the series and whipping through them. The story is a Mickey Spillane type story, but filled with magic and demons both good and bad. Daniel Faust is the sorcerer detective that keeps getting involved with saving humanity with the help of his magic friends and demon girlfriend. Fun characters and great narration.Have you listened to any of Adam Verner’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Loved Verner's reading, so natural and full of emotion.Fun Vegas Detective Story with Magic

average at best

For an even grittier UF series with an even more anti-hero MC, I recommend the Nightwise series.
For a pulpier, more fantasy leaning series try the Valkyrie Chronicles.
Decent noir urban fantasy
