‘Slayerz’, it’s America of the not-too-distant future’s favourite bloodsport. Fifteen pairs of criminals taken from either death row or a life sentence enter the arena and only one team leaves. Each team of two are linked together by a device called a ‘kill switch’. If one contestant dies they’ll take the other with them, forcing the pairs of ultra-violent odd couples to work together or perish. When ex-police detective James Hageman is recruited by the Slayerz’s producers he sees the deadly game as a potential second chance. But paired up with one of the worst serial killers in living memory, James begins to question what the true cost will be if they manage to slaughter their way to the finish line and go free. Up against hulking Nazis, crazed cannibals, Yakuza assassins and assorted hitmen, lunatics and killers nothing is for certain or off limits. The only rule is the team that slays together, stays together.

In the future, a bloody New United States reality television show called Slayerz pits fifteen pairs of convicts from either death row or life sentences to a gladiator-style televised mess of body parts and blood.
The fights to the death happen in an arena and if one of the pair dies, the other dies in a minute.
Ex-cop James Hageman is paired with Dali Dawson, the Babyface Killer. There are serial killers, Nazis, samurai killers, and more all on the rampage because the last pair alive is offered freedom.
There wasn't much character development but there was fast-paced action all the way through the book.
I'm now on the way to read the sequels: KILLER SWITCH: SERIAL ESCALATION and KILL SWITCH: FINAL SEASON.
I received this book from BooksGoSocial through Net Galley in the hopes that I would read it and leave an unbiased review.

Gruesome and gory but so much fun. Fast paced and full of action, not for the faint hearted. I loved the ads/commercials before each chapter. The character names were also fun.

Gory and fast-paced, this was an entertaining read. The commercials were an interesting touch! Warning: violet content, of course.

If you want violence and gore in your reading this would be for you.
This is fast moving and action packed, with very little back ground given to the characters.
A quick read.
