Heart-pounding and totally disgusting!
This story is brutal but also funny. I have heard of characters in stories being morally grey, enter our main character, Alex Cole, a regular run of the mill fixer. Except he's above and beyond concepts like morals or color.
His morality is non-existent (at the end point of a singularity!) and we follow his exploits (as he inevitably bites off more'n he can finally chew) through some of the most gruesome, vile and disturbing scenes I've ever had the misfortune to imagine.
Having the gall alone to write the first couple chapters of this book deserves some mention of Mr. Ericmore in some perverted writer's Hall of Fame for sheer psychopathic imaginings. I'll certainly be eager to continue with the series.
All ye who open this book beware!

Story 5/5
Narration 5/5
Ash Ericmore, knows how to write a good sick story.
Pay attention to the title, it’s very important.
If you’re looking for a depraved, twisted, gory story, this book is definitely for you.
If you don’t, well, you know what to do.
I enjoy dark humor, I mean very dark humor, so I wasn’t disappointed by Alex’s adventures. He’s a sick, cold son of a b…. .

Plenty of violence and triggers in this diverting entry by Ash Ericmore. There are many moments of sick humor to entertain as well. Enjoy!

Hell Ride!
Well hell, this was fun!! Totally sick and f*cked up but had some humour also. This was my first outing with AE but I’m sure it won’t be my last! Not for everyone though, so take heed of the title, because that is exactly what you’re gonna get!!

What in the name of all things sane did I just read? Stacy, are you okay? Alex is beyond horrible! Then you meet Donna, and she gives Alex some competition on crazy island. This book is ridiculously twisted and disturbing, but I fell in love with the gore. I really need to get a therapist for all the crazy stuff I read. (Well, maybe.) This one's not for the faint of heart, so proceed with caution. I'm weirdly obsessed and can't wait to dive into book 2. Ash Ericmore thanks for the journey! I need to scrub my eyes now!

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Cool story, great concept, fun to be had for all.

Read the title, because that's what you get.
Definitely...Definitely not for most people. It's as sick and depraved as you can imagine with a title like that. Maybe I've been a bit spoiled with 4-5 star books recently... This one didn't really hit the home run for me. It was good, just... not amazing. I can't talk about anything in the book really, as I'll probably end up on some kind of list somewhere. The humour kind of works, I just felt like the book was trying a little too hard to be a black comedy. It was funny in some parts, though... depending on what you class as comedy, your mileage will vary. I guess I was in the wrong mood at the time of reading.
Would I recommend it? Sure - To the die-hards among the community. Anyone who needs trigger warnings for anything should probably take a VERY hard pass.
3 Stars.

This kind of extreme horror is not for everyone, and if you have any kind trigger warnings, this may not be for you. But if your into disturbing, gruesome, effed up horror then look no further, this one is right up your alley. The main character is truly and most definitely a sick f**k.

This started off strong, the first scene was horrific and everything a sicko horror fan loves. The story line of a “investigator” turned murderer who cleans up other people’s problems was really good and had so much promise and then in the middle, out of nowhere came a job involving deities and inter dimensional beings and I was lost. Sorry I like my horror to be sickening and horrifying and gruesome. I want to feel shocked and push my boundaries but to do this it needs to feel real and make me question humanity. The story went unrealistic and went from a potential 5 to lucky to get a 3 stars. On a plus side as did learn some new thing like Kuman Thong not that it is something I wish I ever knew about.

Well the title of this book definitely hit the mark. Plenty of violence in this one and the main character is definitely a sick fuck. This is my third reading from this author and I'm not disappointed he writes some violent shit and this book is no exception. Trigger warnings aplenty in this one. If you like extreme horror check this guy out.

“Oh, and when you next update whatever advertisements you’re using for me at the moment, can you add something to the end?”
“Of course. What?”
“Paranormal and interdimensional work accepted. Deities slain. Reasonable rates.”

Dang! WTF! Some real crazy ideas here. The book starts off with some really sick ideas. Big trigger warning for those even remotely sensitive. Ash presents the reader with extreme brutal horrifying sick fuckery!
The story continues with the grossness but then takes a really hilarious turn for the best!
What's not to love extreme gore and funny! Think Evil Dead sprinkled with brutality.
I'm ready for more.

“I blew my load. Set her whole body on fire. I think I saved the world too.”
Obviously this story is about a sick f*ck: Alex Cole…
This sleazy, murderous, deplorable man will do anything for money.
Filled with raunchiness, horrible depravities, and a little bit of humour, this story certainly kept me captivated. I didn’t know whether to toss the book across the room or douse it in holy water at some points. It’s 100% messed up.

Well, well... It looks like I've found a new fictional character to obsess over. I was halfway through this book when I immediately knew that Alex Cole is something else.. I think he's gonna be one of my favorite fictional characters of all time! This book is definitely going to my comfort re-reads pile, and I'm very excited to see where Alex will lead me!

Alex is truly a sick fucker who will do pretty much everything to pay the bills.

Alex Cole is a “private investigator” that specializes in very dark work. He is a desperate man controlled by greed and wealth and will do anything to make money. ANYTHING. Murder for hire? Male prostitute? Fake doctor abortionist? You betcha. A few jobs make him question his sanity but Alex Cole knows how to be a professional.
~MY THOUGHTS~
I actually really like Alex Coles character. You find out his origins and how he got in the business and after a rough start, he has a steady clientele. He is crude, insensitive and at times kinda funny. He’s also a bit sloppy with his work but so far things have worked out ok for him.
I wasn’t expecting the paranormal aspect and there are definitely triggers in this book so watch out.
I was totally on board throughout the book, I just feel like the ending was very rushed. Overall I really liked it. Very messed up. Very entertaining. This is the first book I’ve read by Ash Ericmore and I am definitely intrigued. I’ll be finishing this series and will be checking out more of his work in the future. It looks like he specializes in smaller, graphic novellas so give him a go if you’re looking for something intense and quick!

This was a fun read.
The book started off really strong and I was super into it until Alex met Donna and then the story took a weird and unexpected turn. Not bad per se but it just went in a different direction and I lost a bit of interest.
A quick read non the less that I enjoyed.

I was enjoying this until the very bizarre twist.. then it just fell flat for me

This is a staggeringly nasty book, which was obviously it's intention. The clue is kind of in the title, you know? Trigger warnings for just about everything indeed. It is actually quite well written, but it really is an 80s "video nasty" in book form. Succeeded in it's objective.

This really went from me laughing constantly, to having to skim part because I couldn't handle the gruesome acts, but then it had me back to laughing not a minute later. Like, I proper emberassed myself by bursting out in laughter on the bus. It's kind of dry and violent humour and it has me needing my inhaler from wheezing so much.

Sick F*ck
Ok so you’re going to see at least one review a week of this series from me, due to Ash sending me his arc for the 7th which is coming in October! I obviously had to get stuck straight in 👌🏻
Alex has zero F’s to give & is most definitely what the title says! He started out with his own legitimate private detective business, hoping to be big but ultimately failing at getting the clientele.
Until one day a situation fell in his lap, the guy wanted him to catch his wife cheating (easy right) but once that was done, he then wanted Alex to kill her…£10K to do so, of course he wasn’t going to turn it down! And that my friends was the start of a new business adventure!
He prides himself in doing his job to the best of his abilities no matter the case, whether that’s kidnapping & torturing a small child or simply killing off a wife, he’s great at what he does & he loves it, even with the situations he gets himself into! He is after all a sick f*ck!!
Oh I loved this!! I can see why this has been made into a series! You hate Alex at first but his humour has you hooked on him. I laughed just as much as I winced 😂 I really can’t wait to read the next one now!
This is also available on KU & is definitely one to check out! But do check your triggers!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A cross between omg I am so grossed out and omg where's the second book. I love short books because I can devour a lot of them and they get me through the day quite fast. This is definitely one I will experience again but definitely not safe for work

Ash Ericmore - You sick f*ck 😅
Another brilliant read as always.
Definitely more messed up than I was expecting.
Deliciously gory and rotten.
This is an extreme horror, so expect some triggers.
