Known Devil by Justin Gustainis
“Justin Gustainis is a first-class writer; he’s smart and he’s fun, he moves quickly
and he takes corners at speed. Every time you think you know where he’s going,
he makes a point of going somewhere else. His characters are sharp and vivid,
his dialogue crackles with wit and tension, and when it comes to the scarier
corners of the magical underworld, he knows his stuff.”
– Simon R. Green, author of the Secret Histories and Nightside novels
My name’s Markowski. I carry a badge. Also, a crucifix, some wooden stakes, a big vial of holy water, and a 9mm Beretta loaded with silver bullets.
A new supernatural gang is intent on invading Scranton – as if I didn’t have enough to contend with!
Supernatural gang warfare? Not on my watch!

Praise and Reviews:
For Hard Spell:
“A cool mix of cop show and creature feature. Gustainis had me at ‘meth-addicted goblins’.”
- Marcus Pelegrimas, author of the Skinners series
“A magical mystery tour of a murder case rife with supernatural suspects. Sit down for an enchanted evening of otherworldly entertainment!”
- Laura Resnick, author of Unsympathetic Magic & Vamparazzi
“I enjoyed every page of Hard Spell. If Sam Spade and Jack Fleming were somehow melted together, you’d get Stan Markowski. I can’t wait to see what Gustainis does next.”
- Lilith Saintcrow, author of Night Shift and Working for the Devil
For Evil Dark:
“Fans of TV shows like Supernatural and Grimm will find this worth a read, and it’s a lovely mix of real world nightmare and fantastic horror.”
- Ed Fortune, Starburst Magazine
“Gustainis has proved himself time and time again, and it is no surprise to me that Evil Dark is another cracking novel.”
- Theresa Derwin, Terror-Tree
“I thoroughly enjoyed Evil Dark and would recommend it to those readers that enjoy paranormal crime novels. Justin Gustainis has made it onto my must-read-author list and I look forward to what he has in store for us next.”
- Sheila at Dark Faerie Tales
