Richard Kadrey at LitQuake SF, 10/15/11

Richard Kadrey will be reading from ALOHA FROM HELL at Borderlands Books as part of San Francisco's fabulous Litquake festival.

Saturday, 10/15/11, 7:15pm-8:15pm

Borderlands Books, 866 Valencia Street, San Francisco, CA

Here's an excerpt of ALOHA FROM HELL at io9.com.

ALOHA FROM HELL Indie Next Pick

We could not be more thrilled--Richard Kadrey's ALOHA FROM HELL (on-sale 10/18) is a November 2011 Indie Next Pick!

"I've laughed at the opening page of every one of Richard Kadrey's Sandman Slim novels, and this one was no different. Kadrey's willfully angry, sarcastic, and borderline evil protagonist Stark is back, and he's here in style. With another war between heaven and hell brewing, Stark has some nasty business to take care of and he's going to have to go back downstairs to hell to deal with it. Kadrey wraps up a trilogy with this novel, and he does it the way he always has, with amusing, witty writing and a film noir patter that ranks up there with some of the best."

                                            -- Lincoln Eddy, Schuler Books & Music, Okemos, MI

This is particularly impressive given the other titles on the November Indie Next list--new books from Don Delillo, Jeffrey Eugenides, Chuck Palahniuk, Haruki Murakami and more. The full list is here: http://news.bookweb.org/news/november-2011-indie-next-list-preview

Richard will be reading and signing 10/15/11 as part of San Francisco's fabulous Litquake festival at Borderlands Books at 7:15pm.

"A fresh, different kind of fantasy novel set in our time and place. The novel feels homey and warm as well as dark and enticing—perfect reading to prepare for the upcoming harvest season."

Advance Reader Giveaways!

Richard Kadrey's third novel in the Sandman Slim series ALOHA FROM HELL goes on sale on 10/18, but email us now for a chance to have an early look and write us a review.

In Sandman Slim Stark came back from hell for revenge. 
In Kill the Dead he tackled both a zombie plague and being Lucifer’s bodyguard.

Once again all is not right in LA. Lucifer is back in Heaven, God’s on vacation, and an insane killer mounts a war against both Heaven and Hell.

Stark must head back down to his old stomping grounds to rescue his long-lost love, stop an insane serial killer, prevent both Good and Evil from completely destroying each other and stop the demonic Kissi from ruining the party for everyone.

Even for Sandman Slim, that’s a tall order. And it’s only the beginning.

If you are interested in reading the book early AND writing a short review for us, email us at [email protected] with your name and address.
