THE EVERYTHING BOX
Coop is a thief who specializes in stealing magic objects. He has no magical abilities, just a natural resistance to magic, the way some people never seem to catch colds. Because of this, he comes from a long line of thieves.
After getting out of prison for trying to steal a magical artifact, Coop is out of a jobuntil a mysterious (and probably evil) rich man offers him a lot of money to steal a magical box. Coop puts together a gang of fellow thieves to help him steal itand then discovers a secret government agency is after it as well. Along with the Mafia. And a cult. And another cult. And then there's the angel who misplaced the box, four thousand years ago, who would really like to find it before he loses his job.
THE EVERYTHING BOX is the first book in a brand new comic fantasy series. It's lighter in tone than Kadrey's earlier Sandman Slim novels, more in the tradition of Christopher Moore and Terry Pratchett.
Richard Kadrey is the New York Times-bestselling author of the SANDMAN SLIM series, which has been translated into Czech, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Polish, and Russian. The sixth Sandman Slim novel, THE GETAWAY GOD, was a 2014 Goodreads Choice Award nominee, and his standalone fantasy novel BUTCHER BIRD was nominated for the Prix Elkaban in France. He has also written over fifty short stories, including Goodbye Houston Street, Goodbye, which was nominated for a British Science Fiction Association Award.
