Publisher's summary

Jimmy Kaplan has a hard enough time staying on top of his graduate studies in chemical engineering and dealing with the death of his quirky, cantankerous grandmother, who raised him from childhood.

When a beautiful, mysterious woman appears in his apartment building and friends start turning up dead, Jimmy finds himself drawn into his grandmother's books on magic and demonology, even as he scorns them as superstition. But all is not as it seems. For his grandmother was tied up with an ancient legacy that Jimmy must face whether he believes in it or not. And he finds that magic and chemical engineering are not so incompatible . . . especially when it comes to beautiful, voluptuous demons.

Contains mature themes.

Engineering impressed

It is so rare that an MC is a PhD engineering student instead of a pure gamer or something of the sort. Nothing against those but it is way over done.

The details into the science was more fun to read for me than all the other fun stuff. The author really did their homework. As a PhD scientist myself and wanting something fun to listen too out side of the other 500 books I have this was fun.

If you like science and a book with some spice this will be a great listen. I’m already on the 4th book and thought it would do those looking for a book like this to help select, and give the author some positive feedback.

Please excuse any typos as this was written on a smart phone and was typed out quickly as I don’t like spending much time on reviews.

Enjoy

Relatable

So if you get your soul sucked out and sold to Hell, your buddy Jimmy will enslave and f**k the succubus on your behalf.. then bring her to parties with all your friends.
Think we all had a friend like that in college.

A great start

Michael Dalton is becoming one of my favorite harem authors out there, his books have been entertaining with great characters and the sex scenes aren't boring like 90% of the more popular harem authors. This book wasn't super action packed or fast paced, so if you're looking for that this may not be your cup of tea. But where there isn't constant action, there's a really good story, interesting characters and a big universe that's being slowly uncovered. I'm glad that I found this series when there are a few books out because I am now looking forward to listening to book two!

Amazing Sci Fi Hellbound Harem

Amazing Narration!! I think this Mr Dalton's best series so far !! Builds the story up and is slowly building up the back story as they go ...and the women slowly come and play there part in a great way! I hope the next book is as good as this one .....on to the next one!!!

Hype paid off!

I've been low key waiting for this series to debut in audio format. This series is up there with being a genre favorite of mine right along with series like Herald of Shalia. While the theme is completely different of course. Being urban, slice of life and action-intrigue. If I had to describe it; it would be The Code of Da Vinci, book/movie, combined with Supernatural the tv show, albeit in the harem genre. The author does a fantastic job of mixing his version of the occult translated thru science with modern technology.

Now admittedly, I was apprehensive of the length and narrator. Considering that most books in this genre tend to do better with dual narrators and that I was unfamiliar with Sierra Kline. However, she did an amazing job! I'm still on the fence about her dynamic range, but I'd have to listen to her other works or wait for more characters to be added to this series but for being a solo narrator was quite good. Her voice was smooth, not too calming like ASMR, but podcast/radio silky smooth voice. Within minutes she had me enraptured in one of my favorite stories of the genre. Definitely awaiting the sequels. Great job! Well worth the credit, imo.

Fantastic book 1

Do you like magic, sex, and murder?
Do you like down to earth protagonists and likeable love interests you just cheer on?

And most importantly, do you like a phenomenal voice actress that will make your ears feel like they were dipped in honey as she brings the story to life with her sultry delivery?

seriously, it's a damn good book and very tightly plotted. Left me wanting more, more, more!

Has sex with friends murderer instead of sending her back to hell.

Girl is a succubus that had been sleeping around and killing people for 1,200 years and ended up killing mc’s friend and neighbor. Instead of sending her back to hell and gaining revenge/justice for friend he bounds and screws her. Makes mc seem like a simp, creep with zero emotions. I would’ve offed the minx.

Low volume

In book 1 and 2 the volume is really low compared to all other audiobooks. I don’t think demon hunter fits with the story since the mc does not hunt demons.
