All hail Sandman Slim, author Richard Kadreys ultra-extreme anti-hero and recent escapee from Hell.
Legendary author William Gibson (Neuromancer) called Kadreys first deliciously twisted Slim adventure an addictively satisfying, deeply amusing, dirty-ass masterpiece, and in number three, Aloha from Hell, the ruthless avenger, a.k.a. Stark, finds himself trapped in the middle of a war between Heaven and Hell.
With God on vacation, the Devil nosing around in Paradise, and an insane serial killer doing serious damage on Earth, Stark/Slim is ready to unleash some more adrenaline-surging, edgy and violent supernatural mayhem and even pay another visit to Hell if necessary which is great news for fans of Jim Butcher, Charlaine Harris, Kim Harrison, and Simon R. Green.
Praise for Sandman Slim:
The best B movie Ive read in at least twenty years. An addictively satisfying, deeply amusing, dirty-ass masterpiece, Sandman Slim swerves hell-bent through our cultures impacted gridlock of genresits like watching Sergio Leone and Clive Barker co-direct from a script by Jim Thompson and S. Clay Wilson. William Gibson
If Simon R. Green wrote an episode of Dog the Bounty Hunter, it would read much like Sandman Slim violent, vivid, non-stop action of the supernatural kind. I couldnt put it down. Charlaine Harris
The most hard-boiled piece of supernatural fiction Ive ever had the pleasure of reading. all confident and energetic and fresh and angry. I loved this book and all its screwed-up people. Cory Doctorow, author of Little Brother
Paced like greased lightning (watch out for friction burns on your turning finger), blend the movie-ish delights of tough guy noir and such smart-mouthgore-fests as Reanimator and Army of Darkness, seasoned by soupcons of Gaimanian romanticism and Koontzian sentiment. Booklist
Nicotine and octane in equal parts might come close to the high-energy buzz from Richard Kadreys Sandman Slim. Crisp world building, recognizable and fully-realized characters, and a refreshingly unique storytelling style make for an absorbing read. Sandman Slim is my kind of hero. Kim Harrison
