"Sandman Slim is my kind of hero." â??Kim Harrison
"Richard Kadrey is a genius." â??Holly Black
Sandman Slim is back from Hell. After wreaking unholy havoc in author Richard Kadrey's resoundingly acclaimed Sandman Slim, the demon-slaying anti-hero and half-angel fugitive from the underworld returns in a brutally funny, eye-poppingly inventive, and totally addicting follow-up, Kill the Dead. If you're a fan of Buffy and Jim Butcher, Christopher Moore, Neil Gaiman, and Warren Ellis, or you dig the dark urban fantasy vibe of Charlaine Harris, Kim Harrison, and Simon Green, you'll cheer Lucifer's onetime personal assassin as he signs on as his ex-boss' Hollywood bodyguard...and takes on the zombie apocalypse almost single-handedly. … (altro)
I just couldn't get into this one like I did the first. I still really like the character and the world being built. The plot was all over the place and the cast so large it was hard to remeber what some characters meant to the plot. I was a good 150 pages into it and struggling to keep going. The story had really gone nowhere, suddenly I found myself skimming. This is never good. I will probably give the next one a chance to redden itself or not. ( )
Entertaining and fast read. Urban fantasy is not my genre--so many seem formulaic and shade too close to romance novels for my taste--but this series avoids most of that. The noir atmosphere is successful mostly, and helps keep it interesting. Zombies, I dunno. ( )
I'm officially hooked on Sandman Slim. The second book was even better than the first one, and the next promises to be even better. I really like Stark's voice and the odd assortment of characters. Keep 'em coming, Richard Kadrey! ( )

If I was a religious man (and no, knowing there's a Heaven and Hell, God and devil and angels doesn't help being religious one little bit), I might take what I see as a sign.
