Devil of a Time (Paperback)


In this satirical take on the dangers of believing your own fictions, a corporate climber named Bob is just about to pull off the sweetest deal of his corrupt career when it's snatched from his grasp. In his anger, Bob suffers a fatal heart attack that sends him plummeting into the pit of Hell. He's greeted by a flea-bitten Cerberus, a snot-nosed demon gives him a book of impossibly complex rules to follow and he's sentenced to an eternity in the pit of boiling...well, his punishment isn't pleasant. But eternity is a long time for someone as ambitious as Bob. Besides, he has a secret weapon: a beautiful but insistently tedious young woman who has attached herself to the Devil like a white shadow. Will the Devil manage to repower the faltering volcano that's the physical symbol of his potency? Will Bob wrest Hell from him and turn it into an amusement park? Will the Devil's white shadow redecorate everything in sight? Whatever happens, you can be sure that all hell is gonna break loose
