Book 1 of 7: Southeast Asia Paranormal Police Department

See all formats and editions

New demon, New rules.
Officer Mark Vedis has just been put in charge of a special operations group in the Southeast Asia Paranormal Police Department (PPD). The post was awarded after an incident in the Kansas City PPD that caused him to merge with a demon. That turned him into the first warlock in existence for a long time.

He's learning real fast that people don't like warlocks. They've got a penchant for being dangerous. Very, very dangerous.

Too bad Southeast Asia is dealing with multiple supernatural mafias who are battling it out with each other, and it's been getting worse by the minute. One group has created a new supernatural creature that is proving to be nearly unstoppable.

The only thing that might have a chance against this beast is...you guessed it...a warlock.

Timing is everything.

If Mark doesn't learn to master his new powers--and the demon inside--the world isn't just going to crumble, it's going to turn to ash.

From the Publisher

Being a warlock is hard

Mark never wanted to be in this position, but heroes seldom do. Of course, heroes aren't usually thrust into a situation where they have to have a demon as a partner. In all fairness, though, Bert's not a bad demon. He's just misunderstood...by nearly everyone.

Mark Vedis was a fledgling cop until he was merged with a demon.

Being a warlock used to be cool. Now it gets you nothing but an annoying demon partner and a huge target on your back.

Mark Vedis ran a regular beat as a PPD officer. He mostly dealt with werecows and werebulls and a partner who ate too much.

As fate would have it, though, he ended up facing down a new kind of villain that was more disturbing and powerful than he could've ever imagined.

The darn thing nearly killed him.

While in his death throes, Mark was given the gift (curse?) of a demon companion that opened his ability to become a warlock. That's when the crap really hit the fan.

Noah is a writer of comedy, in whatever form seems like the most fun at the time. Most of his work is in horror comedy/ urban fantasy, but only because Hasbro won't let him write books about Transformers.
Noah grew up in Southeast Kansas, then lived in Asia (South Korea, China, and Thailand) for most of a decade, acquiring a wife and daughter in the process. He is currently living back in Kansas and is openly resentful about having to grow up and settle down. He plans to take frequent vacations abroad, just as soon as his books are turned into movies or he hits the lottery.
Noah never really knows what’s going on, but attempts to have a good time anyway. He hopes you have as much fun reading his books as he does writing them.

Disclaimer: I love the world of John Logsdon’s Paranormal Police Department, so reviews may be slightly biased

This is a fast paced and quick and easy read. Oh, did I mention it’s also funny as hell? It’s biggest downside is that it ends too quickly. The ending, however, WILL catch you by surprise. You see, when it’s all over, it ain’t over. Fair warning.

This particular book starts a new series in the universe and introduces us to some new and unusual inhabitants. After so many books, I’d thought we’d met them all, but I was wrong. Don’t worry, even if you’ve read none of the others, you’re not missing a thing (besides a lot of fun), and this will make a great introduction.

Pick it up and enjoy a good laugh and a great time.

Format: Kindle Edition
kindle unlimimited, is basically part of the {Las Vegas} Paranormal Paranormal Police Department, as are A Piper & Payne Supernatural Thriller - Netherworld Paranormal Police Department, and there will be more coming from that 'universe' soonish, thought bit of an odd addition to that universe, but did have couple of {minor} cross over with both the others, and it's just the first book of that series, but seemed to fit in reasonbly well. though if asked for order to read them in {not counting any other series of Logsdon's} would say Ian Dex ones then Piper & Payne then SE Asia PPD one, so no possible spoilers or confusion, etc, though to me it wasn't really, but have read all of the others already

Why sell your soul when you can rent it? Mark Vedis is an average cop. Average for a mage in the Paranormal Police Department (PPD), anyway. After years of doing the jobs nobody else wanted, his career, and life, seemed to be on hold. Then he met a foul-mouthed demon who filled him with power, turned him into a warlock, and dumped him into a world of wealth and debauchery that was disturbing at best.

When an enemy strikes who is far beyond what the cops in the PPD have ever seen, Mark is forced to travel to Thailand and face threats from all sides. But he soon learns that the chief of the Bangkok PPD is on the take, the local mafia is stirring up trouble, two of his team members have already been killed, and his new partners have trouble keeping their clothes on in public. Okay, the public nudity is probably the least of his worries.

Worst of all, everyone in the supernatural community despises what he's become. To them, 'warlock' is a dirty word...

Great new urban fantasy!!

Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2018

Verified Purchase

I’ve read one of the authors, but the other author is new to me. I both love and hate books like this: Will these two authors together make a great book or a terrible one? No worries! This is the type of book I absolutely love: fun plot, great characters, and an interesting plot. Once I started this book, I pretty much read it until I finished it. This book is an offshoot of another series, but you really don’t need to have read the other series to thoroughly enjoy this one as I’m behind on the other series. If you love well-written, light urban fantasy with some fast action, you really need to give this new series a try! Highly recommend!

I really enjoyed this book. It has the same irreverent self-deprecating humor found in the Dresden files. There is way to much sexual innuendo and focus, so not 5/5, but a good series for the less prudish

Another fantastically funny paranormal police department series

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 9, 2018

Verified Purchase

This fantastically funny first book about Mark Vedis starts another Paranormal Police Department series this time based in Southeast Asia. It is linked to, but still works if you haven't read, the Ian Dex series which started with The Merging. The humour is there from the start and the team are all the better for being fun, sarcastic and neither perfect nor pc. There is a great mixture of laugh out loud humour, action and storyline in this first book of another potentially addictive series which kept me wanting to read more even though I knew I had to get up early for work in the morning?! I have been enjoying the development of the Ian Dex series, and the Piper and Payne netherworld ppd series, and can’t wait for more of this one too!

I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I loved the paranormal element of warlocks and demons and everything else you could imagine. I really liked the main character, Mark, finding his powers. I loved the twists and turns of the plot, excellent read, and great distraction. Thoroughly recommended! And I can’t wait to get hold of the next book
