Synopsis

New York Times bestselling author Dan Wells continues his popular John Wayne Cleaver series in Over Your Dead Body.

John and Brooke are on their own, hitchhiking from town to town as they hunt the last of the Withered through the midwest--but the Withered are hunting them back, and the FBI is close behind. With each new town, each new truck stop, each new highway, they get closer to a vicious killer who defies every principle of profiling and prediction John knows how to use, and meanwhile Brooke's fractured psyche teeters on the edge of oblivion, overwhelmed by the hundreds of thousands of dead personalities sharing her mind. She flips in and out of lucidity, manifesting new names and thoughts and memories every day, until at last the one personality pops up that John never expected and has no idea how to deal with. The last of Nobody's victims, trapped forever in the body of his last remaining friend.

Goodreads review by Bradley on March 30, 2018

Simply gorgeous. A tale of friendship between a suicidal demon and the remnants of dead girls and a psychopathic boy set on destroying the rest of the demons. It's a roadtrip novel, a cry for help, full of despair and love, goodness and evil. This ought to be enough to describe it, but it isn't. The p......more

Goodreads review by Meli on February 06, 2017

Lo sentí un libro de transición, en el que hay más reflexión que acción. Sin embargo, me encantó. John empieza a dejar de esconderse debajo de su máscara de sociopata y comienza a plantearse otras caras de su humanidad. Y todo esto prepara el terreno para lo que se dislumbra como un final de saga hi......more

I feel bad for giving this such a low review but... I wanted to love this, and I did love a good portion of it, but after The Devil's Only Friend, which had me conflicted, this one seemed to be the one that would decide whether or not I liked where the series is going. Plotwise, it seems I don't. I l......more

Quotes

"John’s attempts to deal with his desire to kill, his contradictory feelings toward Brooke, and the mundane struggles of their nomadic existence make the tale much richer than a simple monster vs. monster story." - Publishers Weekly
