Peace and Quiet. Time and Space
Murder is illegal... even in Hell Damon Cyrus is the envy of his fellow Daemossi; young, powerful, favored by the Dread Lord himself- Shaytan Lucifer. On the eve of the Night Sabbath, Hell's unholiest holiday, Damon is about to crush the Human Uprising once and for all, earning a place in Hell's Highest Council. Outwitted by Mister Gondaphares, the leader of the rebellion, Cyrus is powerless to prevent a terrorist outrage against the demonic offspring of Hell's Highest Houses. Shamed, shunned, and suspended from office, a frustrated Damon has a chance encounter that will change his existence forever. Forced to go on the run for a murder he has no memory of, Cyrus will lose friends, encounter old enemies, and uncover secrets about himself and the realm he calls home- secrets that will transform him forever. J.G. Clay, the author of Tales of Blood and Sulphur as well as Apocalypse Minor, presents a new vision of Hell- a once noble society, now decaying, corrupt, and ripe for revolution.

Disclaimer: J. G. Clay is an indie writer friend of mine. While I aim to be unbiased, the relationship should be disclosed.
This one’s a hard one for me to review, because I enjoyed it but it wasn’t perfect. There were quite a few typos dotted throughout, and I often found it difficult to tell what exactly was happening. That latter issue, though, is due to the fact that Clay has created such a dynamic world that I felt like a visitor in a foreign land, like when you’re on holiday and can’t understand what you’re looking at or what strangers are saying as they walk past you.
I couldn’t decide whether to give this a three or a four, but bear in mind that a three is average. It’s an above average book, but it could do with an extra round of proofreading. I also preferred Clay’s first book – Tales of Blood and Sulphur – but I think that’s because I was able to see more of the different backdrops that exist inside his head.
Overall, though, this is a pretty good read, especially for a book from an indie press. Worth reading for horror fans.

"One thing is for certain though, with the dark and atmospheric feeling in Peace and Quiet. Time and Space, JG Clay has once again proven that with his imagination and visionary writing, he has an extremely bright future ahead of him."

Despite having my copy of this book personally defaced by the author, never trust a Birmingham City supporter, I couldn't give it anything else than a 5 star rating. An excellent read, very gripping and atmospheric. Not for the faint hearted and quite gory but I loved it
