Summary

Always read the fine print. Especially when you’re making a deal with the devil.

Because demons are sneaky bastards.

That’s how they got me. Well, and the rest of my hometown. A few hours of what I asked for and then we were all dragged to Hell. Luckily, those jokes about lawyers and Hell are pretty accurate. After a lengthy court case downstairs, I’ve been released on Hell’s very first work-release program with a time limit and a quota. All I have to do is hunt down and kill the things that go bump in the night like; rawheads, poltergeists, bunyips, dab tsogs, and harvest gods. If I kill enough to meet my quota, the souls of the other townsfolk are set free. If I don’t, we all stay downstairs...permanently. So, no pressure or anything.

On top of that suck salad, a tribe of cannibals want to put me on the menu, a pair of murderous Pucas are taking people joy-riding, and a teenage hitchhiker with a hot-handed problem is riding shotgun.

So, when I heard about a big daddy demon that was hellbent on taking me back downstairs ahead of schedule, I knew it was time for another challenge: Figure out how to ice a demon. If I succeed, all the souls in my deal, including mine, go free. If I fail...well, at least I’ll go down swinging.

But, I’ve got Peeps, whiskey, and a sawed-off. What more does a gal need to do the job?

Good Story?

This is a difficult one to review. I think if I had read this I would probably have a much more favourable view of this book.
However, I just found the narration really hard to get past. The author chose to narrate this themselves, which in my view was a mistake.
She has an intonation that makes her sound bored by the whole thing. She distinguishes different characters through a change in pitch, so it is quite easy to tell them apart, but her intonation remains constant.
Her voice for the main character is pretty much the same as the one for the one she uses to describe what is going on.
I have found myself constantly rewinding sections as her apparent lack of engagement is catching. I'm an hour from the end and I just don't care anymore. For me this is hard work. A shame, as I suspect it is a reasonable book.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
