The Pale House Devil by Richard Kadrey

4.0

This was a fun novella! Felt like one of the early episodes of Supernatural that were a one and done monster hunt. Or like, John Constantine vibes. Audio was performed with a great noir vibe, but it also kinda made it hard to place the time setting as contemporary, if that makes sense.

Our two MMC Ford and Neuland had an easy camaraderie and banter. They are a been-around-the-block private detective human/undead duo, and Tilda who finds them for this job fell right in step with them. I loved the glimpses we got from the creature’s POV, thinking about their yummy snacks. Disgusting. Love it lol. Ending was satisfying, I’d love to see another novella with this paranormal monster hunting team.
