And once educated, he is released to wander Hell on his own. He

battle between Heaven and Hell, angel and demon, demon and damned.

| This
is a novel not to be missed. Here's what people are saying: "Jeffrey
Thomas' imagination is as twisted as it is relentless. Every page
of Letters From Hades presents new and original horrors. If there
is such a place as hell, the demons have a suite reserved in Jeffrey
Thomas' name for writing this delightfully blasphemous novel." F.
Paul Wilson
Letter
from Hades is not only thrilling entertainment, it's also a brave
and subversive book. Thomas manages to entwine a touching love story
within a gruesome and graphic depiction of Hella sort of metaphysical
Romeo and Julietall the while tackling theological issues head-on.
Read it with an open mind. And be good. Tim
Lebbon
"Jeffrey
Thomas offers us a unique vision of hell that's as beautiful as it
is savage, as hauntingly poetic as it is heinous. Thomas Letters
from Hades mines a different corner of perdition to strike a rich
vein of soul and profundity. I'm a hardcore fan." Tom
Piccirilli, author of A Lower Deep |

Letters
From Hades' nightmarish vision of a fundamentalist afterlife is worthy
of Michael Shea's Nift the Lean and Bosch's landscapes. Thoroughly rendered
in precise and poetic language, Jeffrey Thomas' rich and textured underworld
provides a powerful medium for the story's characters as they overcome
torments and despair to grow and surprise the reader. This tour de force
is mesmerizing in its revelation of pain and compassion, punishment
and the possibility of redemption. Jeffrey Thomas' odyssey through hell
is an imaginative and compelling journey every reader should take. Gerard
Houarner, author of Road to Hell,
I
can't rave enough about Jeffrey Thomas' Letters From Hades. This is
a stupendous read from beginning to end, an honorable man in Hell even
Dante would find compelling. Now get off your damned asses and buy this
book! Charlee
Jacob, author of
"Jeffrey
Thomas' visions of Hell in Letters from Hades are as compelling and
as beautifully horrific as any ever put down on paper." World
