The Devil's Only Friend

By: Dan Wells

Narrated by: Kirby Heyborne

John Wayne Cleaver hunts demons: they've killed his neighbors, his family, and the girl he loves, but in the end he's always won. Now he works for a secret government kill team, using his gift to hunt and kill as many monsters as he can . . .

. . . but the monsters have noticed, and the quiet game of cat and mouse is about to erupt into a full scale supernatural war.

John doesn't want the life he's stuck with. He doesn't want the FBI bossing him around, he doesn't want his only friend imprisoned in a mental ward, and he doesn't want to face the terrifying cannibal who calls himself The Hunter. John doesn't want to kill people. But as the song says, you can't always get what you want. John has learned that the hard way; his clothes have the stains to prove it.

When John again faces evil, he'll know what he has to do.
The Devil's Only Friend is the first book in a brand-new John Wayne Cleaver trilogy by New York Times bestselling author Dan Wells.

Critic reviews

"Top-notch writing and well-structured suspense elements keep the story moving briskly."—Publishers Weekly

Netflix, please make this book into a tv series

This is a really well written series and the characters are really well developed. I enjoyed learning how it would be to live as a sociopath. The education of the mindset of a sociopath and the sci-fi sprinkled in for good measure made this series an enjoyable listen. Narration was excellent as well.

Good story and as always great narration

Good story keeps you engaged and interested. Fun characters that you get to know with every book
