Richard Kadrey is the New York Times bestselling author of the Sandman Slim supernatural noir books. Sandman Slim was included in Amazon's "100 Science Fiction & Fantasy Books to Read in a Lifetime," and is in development as a feature film. Some of his other books include The Wrong Dead Guy, The Everything Box, Metrophage, and Butcher Bird. He also writes the Vertigo comic Lucifer.
"The prose simmers with Kadrey's characteristic blend of cynicism and absurdist humor, but the nuanced character development and exciting relationship-building make this feel like a brave new direction for the series. This addictive urban fantasy works in its own right--and sets things up for what promises to be one hell of a finale. -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)"As always, Slim's humor and action are right at the forefront. Perfect for readers who like their urban fantasy just a little bit over the top, and those missing Jim Butcher's Dresden Files." -- Booklist"In the Sandman Slim novels the reader can feel the heat of L.A., smell the smog, taste the carnitas and tamales, and know the joy of finally sliding into the AC and onto that barstool at the end of a brutal, bloody hard day of searching, fighting, killing, and just plain old surviving." -- New York Journal of Books"If this is escapism, it's the most masochistic kind I can imagine." -- NPR Books "I hope Kadrey keeps putting out Sandman Slim books for the next twenty years. They're that much fun to read." -- Wired"I loved where Kadrey started with this series, but I love where he's going even more." -- Cory Doctorow
