Demon

A Memoir

By: Tosca Lee

Narrated by: Joe Hempel

From the author of the New York Times best-selling Iscariot comes an award-winning novel that poses the question: if a demon came up to you and offered to tell his story, would you listen?

Clay's life has reached a standstill. Recently divorced, he spends his days drifting from his drab apartment to his equally lackluster job as an editor for a small Boston press and back again. His dreary routine has left him mired in a seemingly meaningless existence, until the night he meets Lucian - a demon - and everything changes. With the simple words, "I'm going to tell you my story, and you're going to write it down and publish it", Lucian catapults Clay's mundane life into turmoil.

What begins as an intriguing mystery soon spirals into a chaotic obsession as Clay struggles to piece together Lucian's dark tale of love, ambition, and grace - only to discover the demon's story is strikingly similar to his own. And the only thing that matters now is finding out how the story ends....

Thought-provoking.

I really enjoyed Tosca Lees perspective of what a demon would have gone through and what a demon would have witnessed and thought of everything since they were cast out of heaven.

Tricky Demon

2015 written version: Amazing story. The madness. The beauty. The horrors. The deep conversations. The twist. Oh that devious, sneaky, tricky Demon.
2020 Update: The audio version of this story has come out. The narration is excellent. The story just as good the second time around.

beautiful

simply beautiful. the story was amazing. I couldn't be any happier with the performance.

Fallen Angel

You are going to get a lot of Christians not wanting to read this by the title. Or people not Christian pick this up hoping for something more edgy and dark. This is not a dark book. It’s a biblical allegory about a writer who interviews a fallen angel who regrets his choice to follow Satan. It is thought provoking and a unique perspective of being able to see the creation to modern times from the perspective of a fallen angel.

Extremely well done .

What this book is not is a story about the inner workings of a demonic mindset, even the bad deeds the character has participated in are glossed over. You will also not find this book to be developing into anything that is clearly not laid out in scripture. For example, there is no speculation or fictional elements added to the demons life like “why” didn’t god forgive them for their rebellion, what does it feel like to be a demon, or any other speculation. So, as you are listening or reading it you expect some big revelation or insight but then you find out that was not the storytellers purpose. There was not anything new that I learned about god, angels, or the Bible. But still a fantastic read.

Addictive!!!

I absolutely loved this story! I couldn’t quit listening. It gave me an entirely different look at reality and how I look at it. Awesome story!
