If it is a curse or a blessing, well, that remains to be seen."

Story
On November 1, 1951, war hero John Ashton was promoted to detective. His first assignment: find the district attorney’s missing daughter. But his only lead is Alena Francon, a high society sculptor and socialite committed to Bellevue’s psychiatric facility. Alena has a story for the new detective. A story so outlandish John Ashton refuses to heed the warning. Alena admits to incarnating Golem, a demonic force, into her statue. A devil so profound he’s infiltrated every part of New York’s infrastructure.

Haunted book, demonic and a past that haunts!
- By T.Jarrell on 06-11-24

Publisher's summary
Chain-smoking bisexual, Mantis, finds herself in the midst of a demon apocalypse. With the book of Revelations unfurling before her very eyes, she recruits a reformed prostitute, a bubbly stripper, and a hopelessly-smitten DJ to try to stop the biblical event in its tracks. Can Mantis and her uproarious crew of misfit degenerates save the world before it's destroyed?
Locked-and-loaded with sinister creatures, twisted villains, violent action, and a horny heroine with the charm of a rabid wolverine, Mantis will take you on a hilarious, blood-soaked road-trip through the bowels of America's Deep South and drop you on the doorstep of the Devil.
From the demented author of Vanity Kills, Bad God's Tower, and DERAILED comes a profane, blood-soaked, laugh-out-loud novel full of guts, gore, and good times. A religious, comedic-horror blend of Dogma and Tales From the Crypt's Bordello of Blood.

Wild ride!
This is such a fun and wild book! It’s got humor, horror, demons & sex! It’s a very enjoyable read and a really fast paced book.
(“The corset made from human skin” was one of my favorite lines!)
There are lots of powerful female characters, which is always awesome to see! The main Character Mantis, is definitely an exciting and wild person! The goal of the story is to find Betty’s son and deal with all of the craziness that leads up to that and afterwards as well. The ending was my favorite part of the story! So much going on that I wasn’t able to stop listening!
I feel like this is a great summer read! This author is definitely one to follow!
The narrator did a great job with the audio book!

Sarcastic Supernatural
When the phrase "Hell has no fury like a woman scorned" is spoken, they must be talking about the snarky, mean as a pit viper MC Mantis. She will make you laugh, but if you aren't careful, she will also take your head clean off before you can blink. I loved the humor, gore, sarcastic wit, and action-packed storyline that also gave me B-movie vibes. The storyline and comradery of the characters are unique and entertaining. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves comedic horror. I received this book for free upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased review here of my own volition.

Okay
This book has a lot of good reviews and I do enjoy apocalypse-themed stories, but I just couldn't get into this one. Mantis is a strong heroine, which I can always appreciate, though I didn't really like her or her attitude. We do have quirky supporting characters. And demons to slay. I listened to this audiobook for about an hour and forty-five minutes before stopping. I'm not saying it's bad, but just isn't for me at this time. I might consider going back to it in the future. Tina Smith's voice definitely suited Mantis' personality.

I definitely enjoyed the characters and the storyline. It's funny. It's sarcastic. It's gory. It's action-packed. I most definitely recommend for anyone looking for something different.

I didn't know what this was about entirely before I started but man was it good. So much comic relief in an apocalyptic world. I liked Mantis and Dylan the best. Another Greta one by Erica Summers!

so fun!
What a fun book! It's such a crazy and wild ride with some of the most insane and badass characters. Once again, we get some very strong female leads and queer representation, which is common with Summers books.
This really is a fantastic blend of genres. I loved both the horror and the humor elements. If this gang got a show, I would watch the shit out of it. Other readers have said it gives off supernatural vibes, and I can totally see that!
I listened to the audiobook, and I thought it was great. I was especially fond of the narrators voice for both Mantis and Sweet T.
Definitely recommend checking out this audiobook!
