Publisher's Summary
Beelzebub, the prince of demons, is bored. It's his destiny to one day rule the dark underworld known as the Red Realm, but it's sooo boring down there. All he wants to do is lay around all day in the lava pits (ahhh), boss everyone around (rude!), and maybe play a cruel prank (or two). But Beelzebub's father has had it with his son's nasty attitude. No one backtalks the Red King. NO ONE.
A disgraced Beelzebub is banished by his father and cursed to spend his days in the worst place either of them can imagine. EARTH. Now Beezer (his new name...which he hates...) has to navigate a family (who are way too nice for his liking) that doesn't know the truth behind where he really came from. Oh, and his human body? Not a fan. Too many feelings! And it makes weird sounds.
What would Beezer do to get back home and reclaim his rightful place next to his father? Anything it takes. That is unless, he finds a new path (ugh work).

Story
Samantha is a professional seductress and con artist with a heart of gold. If she talked about her work, she’d tell you she only pilfers organs for medical research and that she only takes one kidney, and she only steals those kidneys from dishonest people. It’s hell on her social life. Abe is the doctor and Sam's partner in crime. He isn’t much of a criminal. Except for the kidney stealing. But he’s using that money to fund his research that he anticipates will be able to cure diabetes. So, all for a good cause...? You decide. Of course, it's hell on his social life.

In the summer of 1937, Amelia Earhart is the most famous woman in the world - a record-breaking pilot, a best-selling author, and a modern woman shattering the glass ceiling in the early days of aviation. And then she vanishes. In Tampa, Florida, 15-year-old Lizzie Friedlander spends her afternoons glued to her father’s radio, tapping into the enormity of a world she longs to travel. Lizzie can hardly believe her ears when she picks up a radio signal from a faraway source that sets her heart racing: “Amelia Earhart calling SOS!”

For thousands of years, there has been a cycle: a Demon King rises and conquers, and a Hero is reborn a hundred years later to defeat him. Each time, civilizations are ground to dust beneath the Demon King's hordes, but humanity has remained secure in the belief that a Hero of legend will always save them. There's just one slight problem. It's only been 23 years since the Demon King's latest rise, and this time, he's already conquered more than half the world. If humanity simply waits for the Hero's return, there may be no world left for him to save.

Science fiction allows us to go places we can only dream of seeing - other worlds, distant stars, entirely different galaxies. While not every story is concerned with the hard science behind space travel and other futuristic ventures, fiction can give us amazing insight into what we could be capable of and what we dream of doing. In these 10 lectures, Professor Erin Macdonald interweaves real science and the achievements of the imagination to reveal the truth that underlies our favorite stories and sheds light on what the future may hold.

The tide is turning against the colonists in the Revolutionary War, and 18-year-old Elizabeth Morris cannot sit by idly. Quietly disdainful of her Tory parents, who drag her along to society events and welcome a British soldier into their home during their occupation of New York City, Elizabeth decides to take matters into her own hands. She realizes that, as a young woman, no one around her believes that she can comprehend the profound implications of being a nation at war - she is, effectively, invisible. And she can use this invisibility to her advantage.

What do I know?
This is not the first time this has happened:
- put on a kids' audio book in the car for my kids
- they listen silently and I can't tell if they're engaged or bored silly
- I think, "this is a lame story," but I say nothing
- get to the destination and one kid gushes about how much they love the story
Obviously I am old and do not understand what kids like. My kids sure like this book though.

Intro to Satanism for kids 101
The next Rick Riordan, or J.K. Rowling this is not.
This audiobook aimed at children and tweens is intense with the sound effects of cries from tortured souls in Hell, loud hellish growls, roaring flames, screams of anguish, and attempts of humor to offset the aforementioned with demons eating with sloppy lip smacking, lusty crunching, grotesque descriptions, and characters' pants wetting and flatulence.
You don't need a religious affiliation or belief to know that there are some topics that are not for children, no matter how old they are or how mature we think they are.
The law says that the age of eighteen is the age when one becomes a legal adult and can enter into binding contracts, or join the military, yet they cannot legally purchase alcohol or a gun until the age of 21.
Bearing the above in mind, most everyone can agree that when a child is exposed to a positive or negative influence, it can have far reaching consequences that remain with them well into adulthood.
Sometimes a good experience can ignite a desire to learn more about a subject and the child grows up to fulfill a lifelong desire to become a scientist, doctor, soldier, mechanic, inventor or president.
While bad experiences can spur some on to greatness, it is far more common that they scar a child's tender psyche sometimes beyond repair or sometimes create a trigger of recurring nightmares, anxiety and low self esteem that also can foretell the child's future.
We know this is true from the many examples of individuals from harsh backgrounds that become successful, but greater than those numbers are the lifers in prison who started with negative exposures that snowballed them to hurt animals, bully others, shoplift, runaway from home, sell or take drugs, rob, and kill.
Their stories explain that they were triggered by events or exposure to something beyond their maturity level. And even if for the briefest of moments, it impacted some aspect of their childhood and that fear, moment or bad memory forever negatively changed their impressionable minds.
This story disguises the nightmare inducing topics of: being condemned to Hell, evil, "familiars" in your home in the demonic possession of family pets, casting spells, eating souls, and human hearts. This is heightened with special sound effects and clamoring noise that inevitably compels the listener's mind to run wild creating it's own horrible pictures.
The malignant themes are subtly entwined are among a few thrown in token wholesome values: "family, love, telling the truth, and being yourself" to render the disturbing themes as cute or funny and innocuous.
Encouraging children to enjoy or desensitize these negative topics is reckless. Children are keenly impressionable and are drawn to stories of magic, the fantastic, and kids as heroes.
However, encouraging them with these themes is reminiscent of the beginings of many self proclaimed occultists, murderers, serial killers, or others on death row.
The greatest numbers yet are those who try to live a good happy life, but are still plagued with fear, anxiety, low self esteem and never reach their potential.
Be careful what you feed a child's mind.
As an adult, I enjoyed the story. I think my youngest son of 14 would likely find it amusing as would many other children even younger. But, I would rather he play video games than be entertained by this "free" audiobook, where the chance that he be influenced negatively is unlikely, it has no other purpose except as a warning for parents in what not to let their children access.

good short story
Some of the storyline leaves me unlikely to recommend it to children though. [Particularly foster or adoptive child as evil/ son of the devil.] I know, I know it is a good over evil thing. But I have heard that remark before and it is harmful to traumatized kids when uttered in real life.
That said, the story also has very empowering themes for being able to overcome past evil inflicted in your life.
To sum it up, I wouldn't be mortified to learn of kids reading it, but it isn't one I would recommend.

Peaceful
I finished this book in one sitting and just enjoyed it. I love simple books low key about demons and dark stuff! And this was a cute idea.

A wonderful story
I loved how this kept me engaged and excited to keep listening for me. I wished it was much longer, because it was such a wonderful story.
