Resumen del Editor

Sandman Slim returns in this stunning, high-octane ninth thriller in the series, filled with the intense, kick-ass action and inventive fantasy that are the hallmarks of New York Times best-selling author Richard Kadrey.

Sandman Slim has been to Heaven and Hell and many places in between, but now he finds himself in an unknown land: the far, far edge of the Tenebrae, the desolate home of the lost dead. Making his way inland with nothing but his unerring instinct for trouble to guide him, he collides with a caravan of the damned on a mysterious crusade, led by the ruthless Magistrate. Alone and with no clue how to get back home, he throws in with this brutal bunch made up of human souls, Hellion deserters, rogue angels - and Father Traven.

Slim didn't land in Tenebrae by chance. His little stunt of trying to open Heaven has set off a tsunami across the universe. Now the afterlife is falling apart because of the ensuing warfare. And when Heaven finds out Slim is close by, the angels put a fat bounty on his head.

It's one thing to ride with a ferocious criminal pack across the treacherous plains - it's another to do it when everyone in the land of the dead is itching to keep you there permanently. But Slim's not too worried. He's been fighting cosmic forces bent on destroying Heaven, Hell, Earth, and him for years. A pack of vicious bounty hunters, vengeful angels, and dangerous enemies with friendly smiles isn't going to stop him fixing the chaos he's caused...one way or another.

5 stars as usual

I love the Sandman Slim stories, this one is without his usual companions, since he wakes up dead in an unusual place. While trying to get his bearings, he's over ran by caravan of roughians on a religious crusade, headed up by the mysterious Magistrate. Stark, has to play it by ear, as to how to escape, finding some old allies along the way. The narration is on spot with MacLeod Andrews; can't imagine any other voice for Sandman Slim.

classic sandman slim

strong story. the right amount of humor and well spoken. better than the last 2 and well lots of murder and mayhem

amazing

if you've made it this far into the sandman slim series you know that it's already amazing right and you know what you're getting yourself into. if you felt like the last book moved a little bit slow this one picks it up in the beginning and keeps the pace.

Fantastic Series

The story is always great and the narration is spot on. I always look forward to the next book in the series.

Sandman Slim Rules

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. I would recommend the entire series because of the writing and the characters.

Which character – as performed by MacLeod Andrews – was your favorite?

Stark. He doesn't give a crap about who he offends

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Stark sees Candy/Chihiro

Any additional comments?

I was glad to see Mr. Kadrey didn't stop the series after Perdition Score.

Awesome Awesome Awesome

one would think that after so many books the story would get stale not the case here once again after getting through the entire book I am once again left hanging waiting for the next installment of this series to come out damn you Richard kadrey damn you sir!!!

Mad Max meets Charles Manson

I really enjoyed this book. I had absolutely no idea where they were going with this but overall the story was great. I do feel like Stark took his permanent death a little too lightly but of course if you are a fan of the series you already know he doesn't get a chance to dwell long. This is a crusade with a ominous goal, and because of that it left me wanting to keep listening to see what would happen next. The performance from McCloud was great as normal. Even the twisted were good. I'm looking forward for more

Nailed it!

Kadrey keeps delivering the goods. Still my favorite series after finding Sandman Slim 4 years ago. I wonder if he hears Macleod Andrews' voice in his head when he writes?

Helluva tale yet again

I've listened to every Sandman Slim novel, and they just keep getting better. Kadrey has a talent for dialog and badassery.

Another excellent adventure

Well done snark and good fun. Refreshingly boldly offensive in an enjoyable way that is unique to Sandman Slim. Kadrey and Andrews are a fantastic team and I can’t wait for more.
