Richard Kadrey writes urban fantasy, horror and dark speculative fiction with abrasive humour, occult violence and antiheroes who operate inside corrupt supernatural systems. Sandman Slim begins when magician James Stark escapes from Hell after years of forced combat and returns to Los Angeles seeking revenge on the people who sent him there. The series expands through angels, demons, gods and apocalyptic threats while keeping Stark's cynical voice and hard-boiled attitude at the centre. Kadrey has also written standalones and other speculative work, including Butcher Bird and The Everything Box, which combines supernatural crime with comic caper elements. His books are fast, violent and irreverent, closer to noir and pulp than to romantic urban fantasy. Sandman Slim is the key entry for readers who want occult action, antihero narration and a long supernatural series rooted in Los Angeles. Read more Less
