Publisher's summary

Sympathy for the devil?

While some call him John, he's more widely known as the devil. He's fun, egotistical, and more than a little handsome, but more importantly, he's bored and looking for something to do to spark things up. Not to mention, he is in desperate need of some friends, which he inadvertently finds in Pierce and Calla - who are gods in their own right, but on the side of good.

Chaos and mayhem follow John at every turn, until he eventually loses all his powers to his bitch of a wife who overthrows him and takes on the role of Satan herself. But there's no need to feel sympathy for John - he is the devil, after all.

This is one comedic fantasy you won't be able to put down.

Fun ride

Any additional comments?

This was a very pleasant surprise. Good story with really good narration. Thought the ending was a little too neatly done, but was an entertaining story nonetheless. I think the author has a good niche with this group of characters, hopefully there will be more.

This book is funny!

Highly recommend for a light listen. The devil gets himself into some trouble and the performance lets you really have some sympathy for him. Excellent story.

highly entertaining!

This was a fabulous book! I found it highly entertaining. I was not sure how I would feel about having any sympathy for the Devil, but I was totally surprised. before you know it, you like "john" and even feel sorry for him.
it's totally worth the read, but you should be warned, I had the the song, "Sympathy for the Devil" stuck in my head for 2 days :)

Satan and white lighters as friends?

Welcome to a small town full of nice people, people with angelic powers and of course Satan, or at least John who took over the role of Satan. And now he's bored with his role so he's busy messing with everyone's lives. Pokémon app is now an addiction (which is a sin) that will get you sent to hell and more weird and fun concepts. Great listen. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Funny and innovative

This is a fun and creative story. I was easily captivated because I didn't try to determine where it was headed, which I don't think I would have accurately guessed anyway. The author expertly created a frolic with the devil that frequently impressed me with the ingenuity behind it all...and indeed, inspired sympathy for the devil. This could easily become a series (if it's not already) with the characters that have been created.

I received this book as a gift from the author and am very grateful.
