Death's Apprentice A Grimm City Novel

Forget about Once Upon a Time . . . Built on top of the gates of Hell, Grimm City is the Devil's capital on earth. A place where every coffee shop, nightclub and shopping mall is the potential hunting ground for a ghost, a demon, or any of the other supernatural entities that inhabit the Grimm City world. Death's seventeen-year-old apprentice, Nathaniel, comes into his own as he leads an uprising against the Devil with the help of a half-dead wraith and a giant hit-man. What results is a bloody, brutal revolt that calls upon the loyalties of both the living and the dead. Based not only upon the Brothers Grimm well-known fairy tales, but also upon their "unknown" sagas and essays, Death's Apprentice is the first novel to be based upon the entire Grimm canon. Such a comprehensive, in-depth adaptation of the works of the Brothers Grimm has never been published before!

GARETH JEFFERSON JONES became a writer after enjoying a successful career as an actor. For the last twenty years he has lived in Germany, where he has worked as a screenwriter, a documentary maker, and a story editor for TV. Death’s Apprentice is his literary debut.

“An edge-of-your-seat thrill ride through a dark world born of our deepest fears where demons and witches fly the skies, the dead stalk the earth, and a trio of unlikely champions battle the Devil for domination in humanity’s final battle.

Deftly-plotted, intensely visceral, and written with a muscular style which transports the reader right into the thick of the action, this first installment in the Grimm City trilogy had me at the first fight scene. The urgency was manifested so completely I couldn’t stop reading nor could I turn the pages fast enough. A horror-packed, cinematic tour-de-force through an apocalyptic world imagined in thrilling (and sometimes sickening) detail.”
—Jo Treggiari, author of Ashes, Ashes

"A dark tale of Death, the Devil, and destiny."
—Jennifer Estep, New York Times bestselling author of the Elemental Assassin series
