The Kill Society

Sandman Slim has visited Heaven and Hell and plenty of places between, but he has never seen the far edge of the Tenebrae, the bleak territory where the lost dead end up. He arrives with no map and no idea how to get home. Trouble, as usual, finds him first.

Inland, he runs into a caravan of the damned on a mysterious crusade under the ruthless Magistrate. The company is human souls, Hellion deserters, rogue angels and Father Traven. With nowhere else to go, Slim joins them.

His landing here is no accident. His attempt to open Heaven has sent shock waves through the universe, and the afterlife is breaking apart in warfare. When Heaven learns he is nearby, the angels put a large bounty on his head.

Riding across dangerous plains with a violent band is hard enough. Doing it while bounty hunters, vengeful angels and smiling enemies all want him to stay dead is harder. This ninth book in the Sandman Slim series is urban fantasy built on fast action, and it turns on whether Slim can repair the chaos he started.
