Can't Wait Wednesday/Waiting on Wednesday #447: The Great Big Demon Hunting Agency by Peter Oxley

 


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event that had been hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine where we spotlighted upcoming releases we are eagerly anticipating. I'm now linking up with Can't Wait Wednesday hosted over at Wishful Endings.


From the publisher: London, 1868. The streets are haunted by thieves, murderers… and demons from beyond the Aether.

Spencer and Bart are the city’s most incompetent crooks, and they are in deep trouble. Hunted by both police and their fellow criminals, they are forced to consider the unthinkable —going straight.

Forming The Great Big Demon Hunting Agency, they thought their troubles were behind them, but they soon find themselves caught up in a web far more dangerous than they could ever imagine, pitched against demons, criminals and evil magicians.

Why are there so many demons roaming the London streets, and can Spencer and Bart stop them before it’s too late?

Who are the mysterious Tappers, and what are they doing with the women they abduct from the streets?

Can Spencer and Bart change the habits of a lifetime and not only stay on the right side of the law, but also save the day?

The Great Big Demon Hunting Agency is the new novel from Peter Oxley, the author of the Infernal Aether series. If you like dark gothic adventures with a light-hearted twist, then you’ll love The Great Big Demon Hunting Agency.

The Great Big Demon Hunting Agency by Peter Oxley is expected out March 2nd, 2023 from Burning Chair.

Why am I waiting on this book? I like the description, especially when it says "dark gothic adventure with a light-hearted twist." And I'm wondering why there are so many demons roaming the streets of London. I want to know if our "heroes" will prevail.

What book are you waiting on this week? Share it or a link in the comments so we can check it out and maybe add it to our TBR lists. Thanks for coming by and Happy Reading!

  1. The Great Big Demon Hunting Agency sounds fun! It's a good time period for such stories and, like you, I find myself drawn to the idea this one is a "dark gothic adventure with a lighthearted twist." I hope you enjoy Oxley's book when you read it!

    1. Thanks! And I hope you enjoy the books you highlighted as well. I was particularly drawn to The Villa as a gothic read.
