About this listen

The Witcher meets the The Dresden Files in this Weird Western tale by the Audible number one best-selling duo, performed by Roger Clark (Red Dead Redemption 2’s Arthur Morgan).

James Crowley met his mortal end in a hail of gunfire. Now, he finds himself in purgatory, serving the White Throne to avoid falling to hell. Not quite undead, though not alive either, the best he can hope for is to work off his servitude and fade away.

His not-so-sacred duty as a Hand of God? Use his new abilities to hunt down demonic beings that have infiltrated the mortal realm.

This time, the White Throne has sent him to the middle of nowhere: a Western town called Dead Acre with a saloon, a moldy church, and little else worth talking about. There isn’t even a sheriff. But the local cobbler has gone missing at the same time as a number of graves were desecrated.

Crowley must follow the clues, all while dealing with a cutthroat gang that treats Dead Acre like they own it, an extraordinary woman who makes it hard to focus, and locals not keen on strangers.

Life isn’t simple for a Hand of God.

Great story, well narrated. A loveable protagonist cursed to do Heaven's work with a horse who's always late.

5 stars are not enough!

Unique take on a western/supernatural mash up. Narrator was very good. Story was as good as it gets for the genre. Highly recommend.

Original and Good

So, it’s a fairly decent western horror short story. I would’ve enjoyed it anyway, but to have Roger Clark narrating made it special. He’s the American Western equivalent of Stephen Fry, in that he could read the side of a cereal box and I’d happily listen along. What does a 19th century cowboy sound like? Well, this, exactly this. His female voices are a bit……manly, but it’s a price happily paid. Off to download the next one now and pretend it really is Arthur reading me a story around the camp in Horseshoe Overlook. RDR2 fans, y’all know what I mean.

Arthur Morgan reading a Western? Yep 🤠

A great weird western with a cool hero and killer performance from Roger Clark.

Fun pulpy listen

Short and sweet is what I'd call this one, delivering a solid story that introduces James Crowley, a hand of God, who hunts down demonic and supernatural beings. With a full-length novel on the way, this is a great introduction, and enjoyable from start to finish.

A good introduction to an interesting world
