Summary

In a lightless world, only darkness can drive out darkness.

My name is Ethan Drake and I’m a police detective...and I got plenty darkness to give.So does my partner, who’s a demon, and frankly, a royal pain in my ass. But occult investigators are in short supply in the PD, so what are you going to do? Anyway, we just caught a body-snatching case that has the stench of occult workings all over it. Seems someone wants to summon something bad into this world, something that threatens the very fate of humanity. I could care less about the fate of humanity myself, but hey, when it’s your job, you gotta do something, right?

Only my job has been made harder by a demon who’s decided it wants me as a vessel, and will stop at nothing until it gets what it wants. Internal affairs are also gunning for my badge over the murder of some guy who deserved it, and on top of that, I’m trying to solve the murders of my ex-wife and daughter. Oh, and don’t even get me started on the snarkiest Hellicorn in the known universe...you know that thing threatening all of humanity? I might just let it succeed....

Harry Bosch meets John Constantine in this gripping urban fantasy noir thriller.

Enjoyed this!

Dark contemporary fantasy with a unique take on demons etc and the cop who helps to 'hold back the tide'. Decent pace and occasional humour with plenty of action.

Looking forward to the second book when it's released on audible.

Not all the fallen are angels...

Ethan Drake is an ex super-soldier security enforcer turned cop, who finds himself still battling the same demons, and frequently outside of the law. Making use of all the bodily upgrades he received in his previous occupation, it takes more than just his cutting-edge biotech to keep the city safe.

It seems there's a fair bit of (one of my favourite Legends), Constantine, in the inspiration for Drake. Ethan lacks John's roguish charm, however, and in many ways is less anarchic than D.C's introspective antihero.

This book is quite graphic in places. If you like to listen to audiobooks in your lunch break this is not the book for you. There are also repeated references to child loss.

I enjoyed Martin's storytelling, and it takes some skill to help the reader (or listener) care about a character who isn't sure whether or not he really cares about himself - or anything else - anymore. The writing is a bit clunky in places with lots of repetition in certain scenes and more than a few clichés, but it doesn't detract from the story.

The Hellicorn provided some much-needed levity, albeit of a very dark kind, and I hope he features in the rest of the series.

Disappointingly, none of the female characters were anywhere near as well-developed as the men, and many conformed to distinct negative stereotypes but, admittedly, the men in this book aren't healthy role models either. None of the characters are really likeable; nor are they meant to be.

This was my first audiobook narrated by Brian Wiggins, but I enjoyed his performance and felt that he had a good pace and tone to his voice. The slightly flattened, hollow tinge to the voice he gives Drake anchors the performance in grief and speaks of a man whose torment has exhausted his spirit. I was less keen oin the echoey telepathy sound-effects.

I'd recommend this to anyone who is looking for a new fantasy crime series and is happy with a hero who not only gets his hands dirty but accrues a few nasty stains on his soul as well.

*I received this audiobook free of charge in the hope of an honest, unbiased review.

Very entertaining

I loved this, I'll just mention this before I give a warning about the 'foul' language, there is a lot of it so if this offends you try a different book because you won't like this one, but if, like me, it doesn't bother you, then grab it now.

The story is good, about Ethan Drake a police detective with 'powers' and a demonic partner, long story there, but if you buy it, you'll discover what happened. He's being pursued by another demon who wants his body ...

The production is even better, it's a joy to listen to, Brian Wiggins is a fantastic narrator and has just been added to my top ten male narrators.

I would definitely recommend this book and will be grabbing book 2 if and when it's available.

Infernal justice

Format: audiobook
Narrator: Brian Wiggins

I like this narrator, he has good delivery and a pleasant voice, the only thing I didn’t like about the audio was the special effects noise when he’s talking telepathically to his demons, it’s distracting and makes the dialogue difficult to hear clearly.

As for the story, I really enjoyed the whole combination of supernaturals and the impact on the real world making Ethan Drake a necessity but also complicating his life as a cop.
Great characters, snarky dialogue and plenty of action to keep the story interesting.

Brilliant storyline and laugh out loud in places.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I really enjoyed listening and I was in fits of giggles several time especially at the names of the Hell B@#£&*%s and their escapades. The narrator did a great job of all the characters and I am eagerly awaiting more escapades from Ethan and his Hell-pers 😂
