The Perdition Score (Sandman Slim): A Sandman Slim thriller from the New York Times bestselling master of supernatural noir: Book 8

by RichardKadrey (Author)

Synopsis

Sandman Slim returns in a stunning, high-octane thriller filled with the intense action and inventive fantasy that are the hallmarks of New York Times bestselling author Richard Kadrey.

For a man who recently met Death - and Death's killer - a few months of normal life are more than James Stark, aka Sandman Slim, can handle.

So, when Stark and Candy are asked by the Sub Rosa council to investigate the disappearance of a young boy, the request couldn't come at a better time. But their plans change when a dying angel gives Stark a vial of a mysterious black liquid - a potential weapon in the ongoing war between the angels.

And when one of their closest friends is poisoned with the black liquid, Stark and Candy have to go to the only place where they might find a cure: Hell.

But standing in their way are the damned souls who, even after death, still work for the subversive Wormwood. Stark has to find a way to break the stalemate in the angel war, score the Perdition cure for the black poison, and make it back to LA in one piece -where an old enemy waits to finish him once and for all.

Media Reviews

Praise for Sandman Slim:

The best B movie I've read in at least twenty years. An addictively satisfying, deeply amusing, dirty-ass masterpiece, Sandman Slim swerves hell-bent through our culture's impacted gridlock of genres...it's like watching Sergio Leone and Clive Barker co-direct from a script by Jim Thompson and S. Clay Wilson. William Gibson

If Simon R. Green wrote an episode of Dog the Bounty Hunter, it would read much like Sandman Slim - violent, vivid, non-stop action of the supernatural kind. I couldn't put it down. Charlaine Harris
