Publisher's Summary

The postal service frowns upon shipping severed heads. But a courier will deliver anything for a tip....

My name is John Cook, and my life began the day my heart stopped beating. After 500 years, I’ve finally avenged my parents and killed the right bastard who done me wrong. Commander Godwin is dead!

Except revenge has consequences - in my case, both Heavenly and Hellish debt collectors. And these guys are extremely dedicated to their jobs, vying for employee of the month status by being the first to acquire my head. Speaking of heads, one was just delivered to me by a secret admirer. Great. Super. At least things can’t get any worse....

Wait. My best friend, Depweg the werewolf, was just kidnapped. It seems I have another secret admirer. Or is it the same person, trying super-duper hard to win my heart?

Or...maybe take my heart.

Looks like I’ve got a sleepover to plan. For one of us, it will probably be a permanent dirt nap....

Another winner

Luke Daniels is one of my favorite narrators. Combined with Hunter Blain’s story, I was laughing a whole lot.

Then I got to the end. And no spoilers- kept listening. With tears of laughter streaming down my eyes. Thank you, Mr. Daniels.

Madcap story with heart, soul, and the creepies!

There is no rest for John Cook! And thank Heavens for that! Favorite characters return and you see them grow and change all while running to fight a variety of enemies, and even themselves.,

My only critique is that there seems to be a lot more use of the ef--word than the other book.
Luke Daniels is, however one of the
best narrator s. around,

Awesome sequel

So, what do you do when you're the most important man on Earth?

In John Cook's case, he's discovered that one of the final signs of the apocalypse is there only being one vampire left on Earth. Unfortunately, it turns out that he is one of the last two vampires on Earth and the other one is his mortal enemy as well as creator. Having Lucifer want you dead in order to trigger the apocalypse is bad enough but he's also managed to tick off heaven by killing an angel. Yeah, that's really not going to do much for his atonement.

The Preternatural Chronicles are a hilarious set of adventures from the perspective of an Irish vampire with a distinctly Harry Dresden-esque feel to him. He loves joking, making pop culture references, and killing Neo-Nazis for their blood. Okay, that last part isn't something Harry Dresden does but should. He's also got a talking dog/werecreature as well as a bunch of other oddball "friends" that now include the talking severed head of his worst enemy.

These are just incredibly entertaining books and you should check them out. Hunter Blain is a master of witty dialogue and absurd situations.

my new favorite book

the smell that saved the world

Hunter you are genius love John and the twins bet

awesome!!!

the story is well written and very entertaining! the narrator is ridiculously funny and makes the story that much better! must read series!

Best book in forever

Whom ever compared this series to The Dresden files is incorrect. This is atleast a category better in every way shape and form. Main character is just plain hilarious. I almost burnt my chest hair from spitting out coffee when I got to the ent part. Narrator did a superb job(as always).

John ALMOST Triggers Hell

Ok, so.. if whether you’re a mild Johniac(?) like me, or you’re like book 7 or so deep into the series, then you know that Johnathan Cook, or rather John isn’t your goody goody superhero or even hero in the same vein of Cap America or even your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. No, John is THANKFULLY like a certain amount of anti-hero’s like Venom or maybe even playboy billionaire Tony Stark. John never asked to be thrust into situations like the ones he has been thrust into, but Lilith damn it, he is & surprisingly makes the right choices. Read on if ur appetite has been whetted or your curiosity peaked.

fun entertaining listen

only small thing is the fighting was a lil too random with the blood powers. wasnt engaging for me cause it just felt too easy when the guy could green lantern anything basically only with blood. that being said i still enjoyed everything else and feel like a snob for feeling the need to say my one qualm, but ya. Luke Daniels, you ma boy!

Fangtastic!

Impeccably great addition to the series! The character development is amazing! I have found myself with 2 new favorite characters, Richard and Gabriel due to their medical ideology lol

fun series

Enjoying the series so far. Fin books to listen to. Hunter and Luke seems to be having fun with the series which I think is what is making it fun to listen to.
