Synopsis

K. J. Parker returns to the amoral world of Prosper\x27s Demon<\/i> with a wry, sardonic novella that flips the eternal, rule\-governed battle between men and demons on its head. An anonymous representative of the Devil, once a high\-ranking Duke of Hell and now a committed underachiever, has spent the last forever of an eternity leading a perfectly tedious existence distracting monks from their liturgical devotions. It\x27s interminable, but he prefers it that way, now that he\x27s been officially designated by Downstairs as \x26#34;fragile.\x26#34; No, he won\x27t elaborate. All that changes when he finds himself ensnared, along with a sadistic exorcist, in a labyrinthine plot to subvert the very nature of Good and Evil. In such a circumstance, sympathy for the Devil is practically inevitable.<\/p>
