The Devil's Detective by Simon Kurt Unsworth

4.0

Essentially, this is a dtective noir novel, set in literal hell - but it's so much more. It's clever, it's witty, it's dark... but never in ways that come off as self-indulgent or pretentious. Simon Kurt Unsworth lets his story and vision of hell unfold very oganicly. We lean along the way just as our protagonist, Thomas Fool, does about the intricacies and startling truths about hell and othe aspects of the afterlife.

A well paced read that serves up action, philosophy, insight and humor in an engaging and immersive way. Definately recommended.
