John Cabal 01: Soul Catchers - Jonathan L. Howard




John Cabal Necromancer, and is researching what it takes, will give a final aspect is missing him but to his Foschungen - his soul. Cabal wants to have them back and goes with Satan on a bet. 100 souls in one year. John gets asked a fair, on which he can work as a soul-catcher.
John is totally socially incompetent and pulls his vampiric brother Horst to the before his undead life, interpersonal could come up a lot. The two
experience a very bizarre year by making it even more or less works well start with the souls, Satan has but a very special interest and tries to sabotage.

I felt a biting satire to fantasy in front of me. It was at times just too delicious. The author is English, which has been reflected in the fantastic black humor. The conflicts that John and Horst unsubscribe, were brought over well.
John is not lovable, aer loathe him you can not.
The remaining characters in this book were, each in itself strange, freaky, nasty, but just great! More like, I'm thrilled!

9 points!



Summary
who sells his soul should not play with the devil!

The road to hell is not the most pleasant. But John Cabal is left no alternative but to connect him anyway if he wants to have his soul. He had sold himself to the devil to be necromancers. But without a soul, it lives only half as good, and therefore John is once again in hot warehouses. Satan is not like her but what he once possessed. Only if John can recruit 100 souls within one year, he gets his own again ... a fair deal, right?

One year, 100 souls and a carnival with a difference: a soul-catcher tells all.

The start of a fantastic trilogy with a truly witty dark hero.

Johannes Cabal the devil was supposed to be grateful to him he could sell his soul to learn the art of the Necromancer. But first, John now knows how to brings the dead back to life, and, second, life without a soul but only half as good. So he has no alternative but to seek the devil again.

Finally, it is Satan's favorite pastime to collect souls, and if he even has one, he does it as soon not go again. In the end he goes to John, however, a bartering: Returns this to him within one year of 100 souls, he gets his own back. And so, John sets out on an adventurous journey in the luggage a fair, was put at his disposal the devil himself. Because he could not quite dare without the help of his task, he goes to his brother, who unfortunately did not speak too well of John. After all had left him after an accidental vampire attack once in a tomb. But his brother has to win something in the matter - namely, his freedom - after all, he can finally leave the dark cave and take back alive. As undead, the time under the ground are in fact quite long. So he moves with John on an old steam train through the country. And soon you will also find one or the other soul. For a better life, a visibly appealing and other amenities are exchanged so also like to know. Especially something old-fashioned and superfluous as his heart.
