About this listen
When Oliver applied for a job in the Hell dimension on a whim, he didn't expect it to turn his whole world—or his heart—entirely upside down.
Recently graduated at twenty-six, and two months behind on rent, Oliver Barnes is desperate. So desperate, in fact, that he applies for a job in the Greed district of Hell's Pentagram. But when he misses his train and, subsequently, his job interview, he stumbles, instead, upon a strange little coffee shop in the middle of Purgatory's barren desert—and into an unexpected opportunity.
It isn't the job he came to Hell for, but maybe it's exactly the job he needs.
As he navigates the demon dimension and tries to survive the ridiculous shenanigans of his unholy co-workers, Oliver soon falls head-over-ass for a tentacled lawyer with electric fingers and a deadly-sharp grin. Together, they discover that, sometimes, love and happiness can be just a train ride away.
Join Oliver and the rest of the eccentric staff of The Passing Through Cafe in Nik Knight's new rom-com urban fantasy series, full of found family, embarrassing encounters, spicy situations, and love that crosses dimensions

Cosy fantasy at its finest

That said, the book did feel overly long at times. Some scenes—especially between the various side characters—dragged on more than necessary, making it easy to lose track of who was who. While the supporting cast was endearing, they could also be a bit frustrating. Still, the variety of demons and their interactions created some fantastic imagery, giving the book a Lily Mayne-esque vibe that I really enjoyed.
Overall, it was an entertaining and engaging read. If the pacing had been a bit tighter, it would have been even better, but I’d definitely be interested in more books focusing on different characters in this world!
