Publisher's Summary:
A smart, kick-arse urban fantasy from a new master of the genre. The Perdition Score is the eighth book in the fantastic Sandman Slim series.
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. Not only does the fate of the world hang 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.
Critic Reviews:
Praise for Sandman Slim: "The best B movie I've read in at least 20 years. An addictively satisfying, deeply amusing, dirty-ass masterpiece, Sandman Slim swerves hell-bent through our culture's impacted gridlock of genres...it's 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 couldn't put it down." (Charlaine Harris)
Members Reviews:
You can never go wrong following Sandman Slim's exploits.
Another Stark escapade into the dark realms of hell to keep the war between the two opposite forces from destroying us mortals. You always feel fulfilled at the end of one of Kadrey's stories in this story, but this one ended in a cliff hanger. The next one was just released, so I'm going to be saving my pennies to get it. Please keep the series alive.
Once More Into the Breach
Okay, I've got every one of these books in hardback. Why? Because I re-read them. Does the fact that there are no chapters bother me? No...just thought I'd mention it for those anal retentive types who need chapters. Anyway, this particular iteration picks up where the last novel ended, with Sandman Slim working for the Sub Rosa (supernatural overseer types). A way-cool drug shows up on the scene, a milky substance that just happens to give life to bacon. Yes, bacon.
