Necromancer Johannes Cabal

Johannes Cabal, a brilliant scientist and notorious snob, is obsessed with one goal - to bring the dead back to life. But for that he needs his soul, which he once sold to Satan without hesitation in exchange for the secret of necromancy. To get it back, he has to take a devilish bet: has one year to get a hundred people to sign their souls away. If he fails, he will be damned forever. Satan provides him with an unusual tool for this - a travelling carnival full of demonic attractions and seductions. So Cabal sets off on a journey across the English countryside, accompanied by his charismatic vampire brother Horst, to complete his quest. The audiobook is a darkly comic variation on a Faustian theme, combining a gothic atmosphere with dry British humour. The story is full of absurd situations, sarcastic dialogue and unexpected twists that will delight fans of authors like Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman. Inspired by Ray Bradbury's This Way Something Bad Comes.
