Description
John works in his family's mortuary and has an obsession with serial killers. He wants to be a good person, but fears he is a sociopath, and for years he has suppressed his dark side through a strict system of rules designed to mimic 'normal' behavior.
Then a demon begins stalking his small town and killing people one by one, and John is forced to give in to his darker nature in order to save them. As he struggles to understand the demon and find a way to kill it, his own mind begins to unravel until he fears he may never regain control. Faced with the reality that he is, perhaps, more monstrous than the monster he is fighting, John must make a final stand against the horrors of both the demon and himself.

German Review on GosuReviews Finally got around to read a book of Dan Wells, after following him on twitter for more than a year :) I knew him from Writing excuses, but never came around to read a book him, so I started with John Cleaver series, because I heard a lot of good things about it. Reading a story from the POV of a sociopath was really fun and John is a great character. Sadly he is he only character I enjoyed, the rest were relatively flat. With excellent pacing and a fun story it was a quick and enjoyable read and I'm going to check out the other books in the series. PS: I just see that a lot of people had the same WTF? reaction I got, once you get reminded that it's a fantasy book and not a psycho thriller.
