About this product
Product Information
"Richard Kadrey is a genius." -Holly Black "Sandman Slim is my kind of hero." -Kim Harrison All hail Sandman Slim, author Richard Kadrey's ultra-extreme anti-hero and recent escapee from Lucifer's overheated Underworld playground. Legendary author William Gibson (Neuromancer) called Kadrey's 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, Warren Ellis, Charlaine Harris, Kim Harrison, and Simon R. Green.

“Kadrey really is the anti-Twilight. Raw, real, funny, furious, all full of piss and hemoglobin. His third Sandman Slim novel, in which the supernatural anti-hero must go back to Hell to stop a war with Heaven, may be his finest.�, "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.", This bad-ass supernatural horror stuff is clearly the material he was born to write. Kadrey has an ungodly (literally) amount of fun with Stark's wryer-than-wry and violenter-than-violent observations and dialog., Kadrey's prose is raw and gutter-tough, Raymond Chandler meets Lux Interior at the Whisky a Go Go at the end of days., Everything a sequel should be; that is, more. … There's hardly a moment where you're not chewing your fingernails to the wrist wondering what happens next. … Kadrey is a hell of a writer, versatile and seasoned, and these pulpy, dark, ultraviolent novels are his best work yet., His best work yet. . . . Kadrey tells his story in a swirl of tight, darkly intense prose. . . . Sandman Slim is very, very good indeed., Richard Kadrey's 'Sandman Slim' series is one of my favorite sets of fantasy books from the last few years…, Kadrey knows how to spin a story, his prose is crisp and effortless, and the entertainment value is high., James Stark, antihero of 2009's Sandman Slim, returns in this gritty, over-the-top tale of supernatural mayhem…Profane, intensely metaphoric language somehow makes self-tortured monster Stark sympathetic and turns a simple story into a powerful noir thriller., Full of action, wit, and suspense, this grabbed a hold of me and wouldn't let go. Kadrey is a master storyteller (overused, I know, but very apt) and he will have you rooting for him in Hell and on Earth., 'Kadrey's tale lives on a tightrope, but the author nails the right balance of detective fiction and theological fantasy, seriousness and humor, pathos and absurdity.' (Lincoln Star Journal), Kadrey really is the anti-Twilight. Raw, real, funny, furious, all full of piss and hemoglobin. His third Sandman Slim novel, in which the supernatural anti-hero must go back to Hell to stop a war with Heaven, may be his finest., 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 couldn't put it down., Nicotine and octane in equal parts might come close to the high-energy buzz from Richard Kadrey's 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., Dirty, disgusting, vulgar, violent, poisonously testosterone-driven, so politically incorrect it ought to be prosecuted, and generally all-round offensively in your face. … I loved it. It's amazing., Witty, gritty, over-the-top mayhem to care. If you mixed Jim Butcher with Christopher Moore, forced a kicking and screaming Warren Ellis in after them, and shook well, you'd get . . . well, I'd be careful opening the mixer. But the result wouldn't be too far away from this., The most hard-boiled piece of supernatural fiction I've ever had the pleasure of reading. … all confident and energetic and fresh and angry. I loved this book and all its screwed-up people., The perfect escapist storyline … side-splittingly funny. … gruesome slapstick mixed with down-and-dirty Hammett-esque mayhem and double-dealing. … If you've been hoping someone would bring the full-strength SoCal toxic waste to the urban fantasy game, then Sandman Slim is your poison., 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 couldn't put it down., If you like your horror stories with a little camp, a little quirkiness and a whole lot of blood and gore then Kill The Dead: A Sandman Slim Novel by Richard Kadrey will be right up your alley., '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 couldn't put it down.' (Charlaine Harris), The most hard-boiled piece of supernatural fiction I've ever had the pleasure of reading. . all confident and energetic and fresh and angry. I loved this book and all its screwed-up people., Hilarious belongs up there with Dresden Files and Felix Castor novels. some of the best supernatural buddy comedy ever created. ... This is that rare sequel that s actually better than the first book (which was plenty great) and manages to take several leaps forward., 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., “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 couldn’t put it down.�, A sharp-edged urban fantasy, drenched in blood and cynicism, tipping its hat to Sam Peckinpah, Raymond Chandler and the anti-heroes of Hong Kong cinema. Kadrey brings it off through the propulsive force of Stark's in-your-face, first-person, present-tense narration. It's a bravura performance., If authors were tarot cards, Richard Kadrey would unarguably be the Hierophant of Paranormal Fantasy., Kadrey's tale lives on a tightrope, but the author nails the right balance of detective fiction and theological fantasy, seriousness and humor, pathos and absurdity., Hilarious … belongs up there with Dresden Files and Felix Castor novels. … some of the best supernatural buddy comedy ever created. ... This is that rare sequel that's actually better than the first book (which was plenty great) and manages to take several leaps forward., Everything a sequel should be; that is, more.

Sandman Slim is my kind of hero.�, Sandman Slim is one of the best books I have read in a very, very long while. Richard Kadrey is a genius. I read it on the plane ride home and was totally blown away., Compelling...brilliantly metaphoric...profane mixture of noir atmospherics, black humor, and nonstop action will please Kadrey's many fans., I hope Kadrey keeps putting out Sandman Slim books for the next 20 years. They're that much fun to read., …endlessly inventive and high-octane…Kadrey's an excellent writer who's able to juggle all of it without dropping a single pin., Kadrey combines humor and horror to create a lively, scary tale of urban warfare with plenty of gory action in Kill The Dead .'|9780061714337|

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages.
I’ll definitely make another purchase soon!
Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!
