Necromancers On Drugs

by Jason Murphy

"Don't do drugs, kids! Especially not wizard drugs. Wizard drugs are a bad time ." Last year, the Occultex team participated in one of the largest paranormal investigations in history. And now they're broke. While running odd jobs for the sinister Lazlo twins, Clark and Zeke lose track of a drug-addled, geriatric necromancer. It's a mad race across the strangest corners of the city as Occultex tries to find their missing necromancer before incurring the wrath of the Lazlos.

Stayed up and read the whole thing

An excellent sequel to Killer Candy! I preordered the ebook and started reading 1 minute after midnight. It's now 3:43 am and I have work tomorrow. Absolutely worth every minute. I can't wait to see what happens in future books.

Looking forward to the next book in the series. Cos this leaves me wanting more.

Mmm mm mmm

They just keep getting better. Another fucking banger from the one and only Jason Murphy. I'd take one Occultex entry over a decade worth of Dean Koontz shovelware or Stephen Kings spooky cars and cowboys.
Charge more for these dude, they're worth far more than I'm paying..

P.s. Can we please get another inbetweener with some background on Violet and Andi? I'm itching for more Rich Witches and magic travelers.

Voice of the dang storm

This book stressed me out. Maybe the next one can be a little more chill. I'm not really into chase tales but I like these characters and that is nice. Liking another man's imagination is nice. I'm going to keep doing it.

Occultex #2 is as funny as it is gripping. The suspense hides beneath Murphy’s lax comedy structure and drags you along without a fight.
