Kill the Dead (Sandman Slim, #2)

by Richard Kadrey

Fear is like curling up under a warm blanket for some people,

I would never accuse you of planning things.

I know that thinking goes entirely against your ethos,

“What do you have against them?” “They’re the government. They’re police. That’s enough.” Can’t argue with that.

“Under the provisions of the U.S. Patriot Act, the Department of Homeland Security has declared Lucifer an unlawful foreign combatant as well as a suspect in a number of terrorist activities around the world. I have a federal warrant for his arrest.

Urban fantasy was so worth it y'all. We had to get through all the overplayed stuff so the writing gods would let us have these perfect lines.

“Did you really come all the way back from Hell for a woman?” “Wouldn’t you?” “Shit, man. I do it every day.”

Everything alive wants revenge, even if it’s simply for the affliction of existence.
