About this listen

Sandman Slim returns in a stunning, high-octane thriller filled with the intense kick-ass action and inventive fantasy that are the hallmarks of New York Times best-selling author Richard Kadrey.

The request from Thomas Abbot, the Augur of the Sub Rosa council, couldn't come at a better time for James Stark, aka Sandman Slim. For a man who's most recently met Death - and Death's killer - a few months of normal life is more than he can handle. He needs a little action, and now Abbott wants Stark and Candy to investigate the disappearance of a young boy - and help uncover council members who might be tied to Wormwood's power brokers.

Stark's plans change when he meets a dying angel who gives him a vial of a mysterious black liquid that could be a secret weapon in the ongoing war between angels who want to allow human souls into heaven and rebel angels willing to die to keep them out. When one of Stark's closest friends is poisoned with the black liquid, Stark and Candy have to go to the only place where they might find a cure: hell.

But standing in their way are the damned souls who, even after death, still work for Wormwood. The secret deal they've struck with the rebel angels is darker than anything Stark has encountered. The fate of not only the world hangs in the balance but also the souls of everyone in it. Stark has to find a way to break the stalemate in the angel war, score the Perdition cure for the black poison, and make it back to LA in one piece - where an old enemy waits to finish him once and for all.

this was a fantastic entry into the sandman slim series the only downside is that it had a slow start but picked up towards the middle love every moment of it and the end will leave you wanting more.

As always a performance on this was perfect. Gritty but so easy to understand. The writing is always dark and humorous at the same time. If you've read the rest I suggest you to continue. A real unknown addition to the horror and thriller urban fantasy genre that more people should read

Great continuation

Well written with some interesting plot lines involving the backstories of a few key characters. The Wormwood conspiracy is much more fleshed out in this new book, but doesn't come close to any sort of conclusion.

I don't quite understand why people had a problem with the pacing of this book. There is an adequate amount of action and suspense in between the exposition to make you not want to put it down. The pacing of this book seems similar to the second book in the series to me with an interesting ending. Can't wait until Kill Society comes out so I can see where Sandman Slim goes from here
