![]() ![]() When he enters Declan, he assumes he’s got a quiet little ride where he can do some exploring. Sometimes he knows his “victims,” but not always. The premise of the book is brilliant: Lucifer wants to know what it’s like for real people, as well as to cause a little fun and crazy on Earth, so he inhabits a body just before death. Lucifer brings in the drama, especially when he’s reincarnated as a normal man named Declan Gunn, who has just died - but I guess he really didn’t since Lucifer took over his body on a little wild venture into human reality. I know how that makes me sound, but it’s true. I really enjoy books where Satan makes an appearance. While I didn’t dislike it, the book felt a bit like a satire of a satire - and frankly, I’m just not that clever enough to always get it. With this one, it flew in the wind, also known as a former book club, and slapped me in the face. Sometimes I don’t know how books fall into my lap, sometimes I do. My rating: 3 of 5 stars to I, Lucifer by Glen Duncan, a fiction novel with some elements of fantasy buried about. ![]()
