Pandemonium by Sean FarleyMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Jackson Armstrong is a gambling addict with just 2 advantages in life - an amazing memory and a young son who loves him no matter what happens. However life suddenly changes for him when he is killed in a car accident and finds himself in the strange world of Pandemonium where demons rule and he is trapped in a dystopian world. Then he starts to have visions that convince him that he will get back home to his son and he forms an alliance with the demon called Lilith. Can they stay in front of the evil that is older than time itself which is chasing them through the brutal world they are in?
This story had a lot of promise that it didn't completely live up to. I liked the overall premise of the story and it could have been a great story, but it lost its way a little and got stuck on the brutality of the world they were travelling across. Definitely a hybrid horror/fantasy story that is quite deep in places with the analysis of relationships and motivations of the characters. There are definitely some twists and turns in the story that added to the enjoyment of it.
