Aloha from Hell: A Sandman Slim Novel ReviewWhen I saw that Kadrey's latest Sandman Slim book was available for review, I grabbed it as quickly as possible. The first book in the series, Sandman Slim, I picked up on a whim and I haven't regretted it since. That book and its sequel, Kill the Dead, are wonderful urban horror/noir/whatever you want to call it novels that are a mix of humor, darkness, wit, mythology and violence. You've got magic, demons, angels, talking heads, zombies and more set in current day Los Angelos, all courtesy of Stark, aka Sandman Slim, someone who got sent to hell as an act of betrayal and clawed his way back because of love and revenge.
Aloha from Hell picks up a few weeks from Kill the Dead, and there's one or two changes going on with Stark because of what was revealed about him in the second book (not to give away spoilers). After the usual mayhem and violence that always seems to find him, he ends up with the long awaited return to Hell to deal with some loose threads from the past two books. This is not a standalone book and it would probably be confusing for someone to pick it up without reading the previous two, which really do explain a lot of the relationships and past histories. While there's some summing up of what went down with whom, since everything is through Stark's first person point of view it's not very detailed.
There's a real momentum in this volume, a resolve to get things done. Stark's put off things for too long and now he has no choice, which only seems to make him more determined. Some very memorable characters from the previous books, such as Candy and Muninn, return. Some questions are answered, and the book leaves off in a place of decent resolution while still open to more sequels to follow. I certainly hope that there's more.
This is a series I enjoy recommending, something twisted and fun that's different enough from a lot of what's out there. It's yet to let me down. Stark's not your average good guy, he has his faults (least among them that he kills) and he's not blind to them. The characterization in these books is great, making you like beings you probably shouldn't and look at them in a fresh way.Aloha from Hell: A Sandman Slim Novel Overview
