2 posts | 2 read | 3 to read
Life and death takes on an entirely new meaning for half-angel, half-human hero James Stark, aka, Sandman Slim, in this insanely inventive, high-intensity tenth supernatural noir thriller in the New York Times bestselling series.James Stark is back from Hell, trailing more trouble in his wake. To return to L.A., he had to make a deal with the evil power brokers, Wormwood--an arrangement that came with a catch. While he may be home, Stark isn't quite himself . . . because he's only partially alive.There's a time limit on his reanimated body, and unless Stark can find the people targeting Wormwood, he will die again--and this time there will be no coming back. Even though he's armed with the Room of Thirteen Doors, Stark knows he can't find Wormwood's enemies alone. To succeed he's got to enlist the help of new friends--plus a few unexpected old faces.Stark has been in dangerous situations before--you don't get named Sandman Slim for nothing. But with a mysterious enemy on the loose, a debt to pay, and a clock ticking down, this may truly be the beginning of his end. . . .

In Hollywood Dead, Kadrey strips away all the trappings of the series, making it another raw Stark vs. the world tale. It‘s the perfect way to re-energize the series while reminding us how important the peripheral characters are to Stark. The ending is as it should be, things are tied up but not nearly at all leaving the reader wanting more, knowing there are storm clouds in the distance. MacLeod Andrews is at his gravely best.

Finished Rogue Protocol, and will plan on writing my review tomorrow. Was wondering which book in my large TBL pile to start next then discovered this came out yesterday.

Screw the TBL pile, it‘s Sandman Slim time.
