Hellzapoppin'
Hellzapoppin' | Iain Grant, Heide Goody
3 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
Life at St Cadfan's is never dull. There's the cellar full of unexplained corpses. There's the struggle to find food when the island is placed under quarantine. And there's that peculiar staircase in the cellar... Being a demon in Hell has its own problems. There's the increasingly impossible torture quotas to meet. There's the entire horde of Hell waiting for you to slip up and make a mistake. And there's that weird staircase in the service tunnels... Brother Stephen of St Cadfan's and Rutpsud of the Sixth Circle, natural enemies and the most unnatural of friends, join forces to solve a murder mystery, save a rare species from extinction and stop Hell itself exploding. The fourth novel in the Clovenhoof series, Hellzapoppin' is an astonishing comedy featuring suicidal sea birds, deadly plagues, exploding barbecues, dancing rats, magical wardrobes, King Arthur's American descendants, mole-hunting monks, demonic possession and way too much seaweed beer.

Mehso-so

Book four in the Clovenhoof series and my least favourite so far which was mainly down to not being into this set of characters.

At the beginning there is a conversation about the management of Hell reading Dante and then they implemented circles and now everything in hell is circle this, circle that, which was absolutely hilarious.

At time of posting this series is available on Kindle Unlimited

jimfields3 “Circle this and circle that...” Great description! Hell goes corporate. 😄 Fits my own corporate experiences. 3y
Michellesibs @jimfields3 yes! I hadn't thought about it in terms of hell goes corporate you are absolutely right 🤣🤣 3y

The unlikely #friendship between a christian monk and a demon from #hell made a very funny and silly read, with all the scenes in (corporate) hell being my favourite parts.

And while reading the book I had most of the time this song stuck in my head... https://youtu.be/5DmYLrxR0Y8

So literature has much more influence than one would expect... 😁

Maike Welcome to Litsy! 😊 we're organizing a German Litsy meetup on September 30th in Cologne, interested in joining us? 7y
Frau_Bluecher @Maike, merci für den Empfang und die Einladung, aber abgesehen davon, daß Köln zu weit weg ist, bin ich auch nicht so der Rudeltyp 😉 Sollte es irgendwann ein Meeting deutscher Horrorliteraturfreunde geben, würde ich evtl. schwach werden, aber die würden wohl alle an einen Stammtisch passen... 😬 7y
Jamesmelvinmitchell I've had this application for a long time and without a doubt you have the greatest name ever. @Frau_Bluecher you made my day. 7y
Frau_Bluecher @Jamesmelvinmitchell you made me blush 😚 7y
