Bestselling author Richard Kadrey continues his acclaimed Sandman Slim series with this high-octane fifth adventure that takes Stark into a dark and dangerous mirrorworld of LA

"The perfect escapist storyline . . . side-splittingly funny. . . . Gruesome slapstick mixed with down-and-dirty Hammett-esque mayhem and double-dealing. . . . If you've been hoping someone would bring the full-strength SoCal toxic waste to the urban fantasy game, then Sandman Slim is your poison."-io9.com

James Stark, aka Sandman Slim, has managed to get out of Hell, renounce his title as the new Lucifer, and settle back into life in LA. But he's not out of trouble yet. Somewhere along the way he misplaced the Qomrama Om Ya, a weapon from the banished older gods who are also searching for their lost power.

The hunt leads Stark to an abandoned shopping mall-a multi-story copy of LA-infested with Lurkers and wretched bottomfeeding Sub Rosa families, squatters who have formed tight tribes to guard their tiny patches of this fake LA. Somewhere in the kill zone of the former mall is a dead man with the answers Stark needs. All Stark has to do is find the dead man, get back out alive, and outrun some angry old gods-and a few killers-on his tail.

3.0 Stark, Kumpel, bist du's?
„Sandman Slim“ soll verfilmt werden. Mein Kumpel Stark auf der Leinwand. Eine seltsame Vorstellung. Die Pläne für eine Verfilmung reichen weit zurück. In einem Interview von 2012 sprach der Autor Richard Kadrey bereits konkret darüber. Diese Realisierung kam offenbar nicht zustande, denn laut aktuel...

3.0 Kill City Blues
3.5 rather than 4 really. Sandman Slim is out of the job of Lucifer, he's left that to another sucker. He's still living in the palatial hotel suite for Lucifer, his relationship with Candy is still complicated. Then someone comes and tries to kill him while he's in a coffee shop with Samael tryi...

3.0 Kill City Blues: A Sandman Slim Novel
Of all the books thus far, I found this to be...the weakest.Sandman Slim is...happy. I am not sure if I like him happy...I mean of course we want him to be happy, he has been in hell. But do we REALLY want him to lose that edge? But things are looking up and its not exactly a happy ending. And this ...

I have a penchant for loving books that are impossible to assign to a genre.This one, for instance.Is it horror? Well, sort of. Some horrible things happen. There's plenty of fear and terror and monsters and devils (three of them, actually--or, technically, two ex-Lucifers and the current one). But ...
