“A gritty romp sure to please fans of Jim Butcher and Mike Carey.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Demons. Monsters. Witches — His sacred duty is to hunt them down.


Life isn’t simple for a demon hunter. James Crowley didn’t choose this life. No. He didn’t choose life at all.

Shot dead in a gunfight many years ago, now he’s stuck in purgatory, serving the whims of the White Throne to avoid falling to Hell. Not quite undead, though not alive either, the best he can hope for is to work off his penance and fade away.

This time, the White Throne has sent him to investigate a strange bank robbery in Lonely Hill. An outlaw with the ability to conjure ice has frozen and shattered open the bank vault and is now on a spree, robbing the region for all it’s worth.

In his quest to track down the ice-wielder and suss out which demon is behind granting a mortal such power, Crowley finds himself face-to-face with hellish beasts, shapeshifters, and, worse…temptation. But the truth behind the attacks is worse than he ever imagined.

Because in the West, there are worse things to fear than bandits and outlaws….

The Witcher meets The Dresden Files in this Supernatural Fantasy Western series by USA Today Bestseller Rhett C. Bruno and Audie Nominated author Jaime Castle. The West has never been wilder, and now it’s Cold as Hell.

As a bonus, this definitive edition also contains Dead Acre, a Black Badge Prequel Novella, for the first time outside of audio format. The smash-hit Audible Original which kickstarted the series with millions of listens can only be read here!

• “Mashes gunslingers, divine intervention, and the supernatural into one hell of a story.”—Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of V-Wars

• “The rich mystical elements feel every bit as authentic to the west as the gunslinging and grit.”—Shirtaloon, author of He Who Fights with Monsters

• “Cold as Hell? More like fun as hell.”
—Matt Forbeck, New York Times bestselling author
