About this product
Product Information
The page-turning first novel in the charmingly gothic, fiendishly funny Faustian series about a brilliant scientist who makes a deal with the Devil, twice. * "The spot-on work of a talented writer." -- The Denver Post Johannes Cabal sold his soul years ago in order to learn the laws of necromancy. Now he wants it back. Amused and slightly bored, Satan proposes a little wager: Johannes has to persuade one hundred people to sign over their souls or he will be damned forever. This time for real. Accepting the bargain, Jonathan is given one calendar year and a traveling carnival to complete his task. With little time to waste, Johannes raises a motley crew from the dead and enlists his brother, Horst, a charismatic vampire to help him run his nefarious road show, resulting in mayhem at every turn.

Reviews
Praise for Jonathan L. Howard'sJohannes Cabal the Necromancer "Jonathan Howard has written a delightfully wicked and inventive story on the game of beat the devil. He turns conventions of the Faustian tales into a modern carnivalesque that is witty, macabre, and unexpectedly touching. If you like the dead to have a little life in them yet,Johannes Cabal the Necromanceris the kind of book you'll die for." -Keith Donohue,New York Timesbestselling author ofThe Stolen Child "That ole black magic has never been more fun than it is in this deft and quirky Faustian tale, and the voice is fittingly sardonic as in 'sour juices dripping from crushed hopes.' Johannes Cabal may be soulless, but he's also cocky, darkly hilarious, and cheerfully irreverent. A diabolical romp." -Elle Newmark,author ofThe Book of Unholy Mischief www.doubleday.com [book or author website?], "Witty, inventive, and thoroughly entertaining, this rollicking Faustian adventure grabs the reader and holds him until the very last page." --Tucson Citizen "The spot-on work of a talented writer." --Denver Post "Howard makes it look easy to paint a soul-stealing murdering necromancer as a sympathetic character; that, folks, is worth the price of admission. Step right up!" -San Diego Union-Tribune "For anyone whose taste edges towards the intelligent and macabre, this book is a gift." -Fangoria "Amusing and clever."-The Free-lance Star "Populated with some of the most creative, and odd, characters to be found . . . hysterical and fascinating."-Bookgeeks "A delightfully wicked and inventive story." --Keith Donohue, author ofThe Stolen Child "Cross Susannah Clarke'sJonathan Strange & Mr. Norrellwith Gregory Maguire'sWicked, and you have this witty and sometimes touching debut novel in the Faustian tradition."-Library Journal "That ole black magic has never been more fun than it is in this deft and quirky Faustian take.
