Description

The best B movie Ive read in at least twenty years William Gibson

A smart, kick-arse Urban Fantasy from a new master of the genre. Perfect for fans of Jim Butcher.
Sandman Slim must save himselfand the entire worldfrom the wrath of some enraged and vengeful ancient gods in this sixth high-octane adventure in the New York Times bestselling series.

Being a half-human, half-angel nephilim with a bad rep and a worse attitudenot to mention temporarily playing LuciferJames Stark aka Sandman Slim has made a few enemies. None, though, are as fearsome as the vindictive Angra Om Yathe old gods. But their imminent invasion is only one of Starks problems right now. L.A. is descending into chaos, and a new evilthe Wildfire Ripperis stalking the city.

No ordinary killer, The Ripper takes Stark deep into a conspiracy that stretches from Earth to Heaven and Hell. Hes also the only person alive who may know how to keep the world from going extinct. The trouble is, hes also Starks worst enemy . . . the only man in existence Stark would enjoy killing twice.

Reviews

One of modern horror's greatest series Cory Doctorow
