Not quite as good as Warlord, but, overall, this was still a fun read. Taken together, these two novels certainly qualify John Shirley as having done a substantial “run” of Hellblazer, at least the equivalent of 20 issues, longer than some others, and I’d rank his tenure pretty highly. He nails the characterization and provides more interiority than the comics can. Both stories are quite large in scale, and this second one steps a bit too far into fantasy for my taste, but it’s not really out of the ordinary for Hellblazer. I would have loved to have gotten a collection of smaller fair, short stories or single issue comics from Shirley.
