There's more of Jay Bonansinga than Stan Lee in this story of five special operations agents who make a deal with the devil to escape torture. Both writers owe a huge debt to Charles Everett for narrating this powerful audiobook. Without flashy sound effects, Everett expertly leads listeners through this story about a disparate group of warriors who use the devil himself to do good. With all due respect to the late Stan Lee, the sophisticated dialogue and writing in this work clearly come from Bonansinga. The heroes are given powers that are extensions of their own natural abilities—leadership, physical prowess, and strength—to bring down a despot armed with powerful weapons. Riveting. M.S.

From the Publisher
A brilliant, devious, thoroughly exciting thriller! A perfect blend of high-concept SpecOps action and devious horror. Stan Lee and Jay Bonansinga bring the pain but never forget the heart!”
—Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of V-Wars and Rage
“A fast and wildly entertaining mix of military derring-do, demonology, romance, crackling wit, and verbal dexterity that will keep readers panting for the next installment.”
—Gary Braver, award-winning and bestselling author of Tunnel Vision and co-author of Choose Me
“A twisted, high-powered cross between SEAL TEAM and DOCTOR FAUSTUS. A rag tag group of soldiers winds up forging a deal with the devil and literally ends up saving the world. Memorable heroes and a gripping, hard-pulsing writing style elevates one of the final works of Stan Lee for an eager audience.”
—Peter David, New York Times bestselling author
