Sin du Jour: The First Course : Envy of Angels, Lustlocked, Pride's Spell by Matt Wallace

Indulge in a Darkly Humorous Supernatural Feast with Sin du Jour: The First Course

This Sin du Jour omnibus collects the first three books in the series from Hugo award-winning author Matt Wallace: Envy of Angels, Lustlocked, Pride's Spell, and the bonus short story "Small Wars".

Enter Sin du Jour, the expert caterers to demons, goblins, faeries, and everything in between. Lena Tarr and Darren Vargas, the newest line chefs at this supernatural catering agency, must navigate a world of bizarre culinary challenges. From approximating angel meat to evading amorous lizards and providing craft sacrifices for a Hollywood debut, their first month on the job is far from ordinary.

Meanwhile, their coworkers contend with zombified clowns, the Easter Bunny's hit squad, and capturing a golden fish for a goblin royal wedding. As if surviving as a New York City chef weren't hard enough, a mysterious employer adds a personal transformation to the mix.

Dive into this darkly comedic urban fantasy series that blends the paranormal with the culinary arts. Perfect for fans of funny horror and humorous paranormal novels, Sin du Jour: The First Course serves up a delightfully twisted tale of magic, mayhem, and mouth-watering morsels.

Praise for this book

"Matt Wallace’s Sin du Jour series is a crass, funny, gross, and sweet blend of fight sequences and top chef cooking, with entertaining characters and their all too human (and extra-human) dilemmas the cherry on top. Chicken nuggets and the Easter Bunny will never look the same to you again." —Kate Elliott, author of Black Wolves andCourt of Fives

Praise for Pride's Spell —

"A smart, action-packed, hilariously absurdist romp." —SF Bluestocking

Praise for Lustlocked —

"Magic and humor combine with delicious results in this unusual, wildly fun novella." - Publishers Weekly starred review

"This series continues to combine magic, food, and a hefty scoop of humor." —Library Journal

Praise for Envy of Angels —

"No one makes me think, 'Dammit, I should have thought of that!' like Matt Wallace. The Sin du Jour series is something I read with equal amounts of envy and delight." — Mur Lafferty, Campbell Award winning author of The Shambling Guide to New York City

"Matt Wallace tells a raucous, riotous tale of culinary madness — a jaw-dropping horror-fantasy restauranteur Thunderdome that makes the 'monkey brain' scene in Temple of Doom look like something you'd see on Nickelodeon. It's like I dropped a heroic dose of acid and turned on the Food Network for eight hours. It's funny and demented and sticks in you like a pinbone. Matt Wallace writes like someone just jammed a needle full of adrenaline in his heart — and then, in yours. From this point forward, I'll read anything this guy writes." — Chuck Wendig, author of Blackbirds and Zer0es

"Envy of Angels is one of the most original urban fantasies I've read in a damn long time. Angels, demons and the New York restaurant scene. It doesn't get any weirder than this. Matt Wallace is an author to watch." — Stephen Blackmoore, author of Dead Things and Broken Souls

"Envy of Angels is exactly the breath of fresh air I didn't know I needed: darkly funny, sweepingly inventive, and just plain fun to read. Every time I thought I got the hang of this book, the next turn took me someplace even more breathtakingly weird and wonderful. Buy it. DO IT NOW. It's the only way we can force him to write a dozen more of these!" — Andrea Phillips, author of Revision
