In the sewers is no place to wake, but Belial’s initiation into the Djinn life left him few choices. He survived a brutally violent battle and desperately needed a hiding place. His Djinn-given abilities healed him physically, but deep mental scars haunted him. A Djinn organization, The Oneiroi, sent in one of their newest recruits, Eris, to track Belial. Her unique honing ability located him with ease. Fortunately for Belial, she wasn’t the enemy. The Oneiroi were providing transportation and weapons, as well as a target, The Mercury Corporation, and they requested Belial’s assistance. The hazing was over. From the Midwest of the US, to the reserves of South Africa, and into the underbelly of Rio De Janiero, they go on the hunt. A ferocious and bloody path is carved through a ring of poachers and human traffickers. Belial and Eris’s take-no-prisoners attitude would be tested to the core when the truth behind The Mercury Corporation’s motive is far more complex than anything they could have imagined.

From the Author

When I first started writing Poacher Hunters, it started simply off as having a set of characters head off and battle the poachers in some distant reserve somewhere in Africa. What it became was something far greater. As I researched South Africa and Rio De Janeiro, I gained an insight into regions of the world that were vague images in my head. My first experience of seeing South Africa on the big screen was the sci-fi flick "District 9" which was loosely based in the suburb of Johannesburg called Alexandra. What I found in my research was that while they used aliens in the movie, the xenophobia and social dilemmas of the community were real.With some help from Twitter followers I was able to gain a better view of both regions, including the lore that is represented in this story. So, mixing older familiar characters from my "Gods of Chaos" series with a character from "Azazel" I was able to develop a story that can stand on its own, or work as a part of the greater story. If this is your first time experiencing the Djinn World, worry not, this novel may be read as an individual tale. This supernatural action/adventure has quite a bit of dark humor that I hope my new readers enjoy as much as those who had the pleasure of experiencing before. After all, this story was injected into my head by Narkissos. If the interpretation is wrong, I blame him for the terrible dreams giving me numerous restless nights until finishing the story.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Jack Thanatos is a visionary of a fictional existence, a specter of Reality. He mentally harbors the world around him, watching the strings pulled and writes a supernatural infused version of what he sees. Real life has a way of getting away from us with the daily grind forcing us away from what we truly wish for ourselves.

Jack merely wishes to bring the world back to one of simpler means, a world governed by ancient gods and new deities pulling the strings that normal folks shouldn't naturally have the ability to even know about. A world where the Dreaming and Reality can work together as friends with benefits. A world where cyberspace is a place that can be physically traversed.

The Djinn universe will encompass each and every entry into Jack's anthology. The characters will work within the same limitations (or lack thereof). The hope is that once this is all done, every reader will look at the fragile existence around them with a slightly more skeptical attitude, that maybe these beings could really be hanging out behind the scenes.

This is an amazing read--violent, delightful, with an ending that will make the most vicious poacher hater smile. The story flows, the dialogue and character interaction is flawless, and anyone who hates the word bae like I do is automatically my hero. A must-read, 5-star wild ride--I enjoyed every page!

I wanted to like this book. Story progressed in an unusual way. But the writing style was so choppy and forced it was hard to enjoy. I wouldn't recommend the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book that is full of surprises and nice touches
Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2017
This is my first Jack Thanatos book and I am very impressed. Aside from the title I knew nothing about the book and that it involved international locations. On account of that I felt I shared a lot of the main protagonist's confusion as the story unfolded around him.

It made me almost think of the novel The Glory Road by Robert Heinlein, in that it is a supernatural tale or heroism.

I also was thinking of the Blue Ant trilogy by William Gibson on account of the mysterious benefactor, with near limitless resources that can be called upon to achieve your goals.

I was also pleased that the ending came as a complete surprise (no spoilers)

The characters were an interesting blend of personalities which I think worked well together. I would hope to read the sequel if there is one in the pipeline.

5.0 out of 5 stars Someone should make these into a movie series.
Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2016
Various guns? Hell yes.

Various melee weapons? Hell yes.

Various supernatural abilities? Hell yes.

Various acts of violence? Hell yes.

Expensive vehicles? Hell yes.

Basically, it has everything a growing boy needs. Even some good old fashioned dirty humor.

This is the second book I've read by Jack Thanatos, and once again I was not disappointed. I would only recommend reading through "Azazel" first before reading through "Poacher Hunters", as some of the references to past events may otherwise be confusing for those who are new to his work. However, it should be easy to pick up even for those who have never read his work before; it is still easy to follow and the pace of the story is just right.

You will not be bored. Buy this book and enjoy the hell out of it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great ride, courtesy of Jack Thanatos
Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2016
Another great ride, courtesy of Jack Thanatos! It's been exciting to watch him grow as an author and storyteller. This book is another foray into the world of the Djinn. There's a few new frightening creatures, a few new exciting locales, and the new powers never fail to delight as they cause you to imagine the many ways they could be used in order to save the world. I love a story where someone who's on a bad path in life can realize their calling and turn themselves around to do good, all while keeping their old salty personality and the things that make them who they are. The characterization in this book is so fun and so true to life that you'll forget you're reading fiction... well, that is, until you find out some of those tales they tell to scare the children are real.

5.0 out of 5 stars the Tokoloshe is probably one of the best things Jack has come up with
Reviewed in the United States on December 21, 2015
This book surprised a few laughs out of me in some places just because some scenes were so deliciously bizarre! I mean, the Tokoloshe is probably one of the best things Jack has come up with. It was weird, creepy and, I'm sorry, but I laughed at some of the reactions it got. Like Azazel, I like how fluid and fast-moving this book was. We go all over the place in this one, and it makes everything actually more interesting. The scenes in Johannesburg were especially well-written and set a perfect scene.

I have read several Jack Thanatos books and they get better and better with each episode.
I loved this story of magic and mayhem, Eris and Belial and MV tracking down rare animal poachers, finding out more about their individual powers and having other adventures and getting into scrapes on the way.
The story races along with lots of action and their task takes them from US to Canada to South Africa and back. I had read 12 chapters before I even looked up from the book!
This is one of those books that once you start reading it, you can't stop as you want to find out what happens next.
Can't wait to read the next one!
I would definitely recommend the whole 'Djinn Trial' series.

I really enjoyed this book and was drawn into the D'Jinn Universe, the characters are diverse but close, each with their own foibles looking out for each other, especially when trouble appears! I look forward to reading the series x
