This year brings 22 more in-your-face stories that break boundaries and trash taboos, transgressive tales you can't "unread" (as Chuck Palahniuk says). Some of the stories you'll find here are loaded with very graphic descriptions of violence, sex, and depravities, while others may contain only one shocking moment of brutality. In others, the hardcore aspect may be less graphic and subtler than you might expect. Some of these quieter tales offer the listener some time to recover from the more disturbing ones preceding.

I loved this book! It's so very different from the books I usually choose. Superbly gory, DE2 is even grosser, crasser, nastier, and demonic than book one! the ending leaves room for a sequel, which I would dearly love, as it would mean an epic supernatural battle in Hell! Darby Croasdale did an amazing job narrating, with her expressive voice and great talent.
