Notes: For some of us, you have so many books stacked up and so many e-books, you don't even remember why you picked a particular novel for reading. Honestly, this is the case here, but I always like trying authors with whom I'm unfamiliar, so here goes.
Mini review: The writing here wasn't bad, but the story didn't work for me. Any time an author takes huge liberties with major religious characters, in this case Lucifer and Jehovah, I'm not offended, but I do find it kind of silly. Demons dressed as bikers stealing a space shuttle so they can get back to their domain? That lost me right there, and it's quite near the front of the story. I'm not saying this is bad, just that it wasn't for me. Others might find something of interest here, as the tale does get into universe and dimension hopping and massive schemes across multiple planes of existence, etc., but it eventually boils down to courtly intrigue and warfare, and not even all that subtle courtly intrigue and warfare.

I have been watching the TV show Lucifer, which takes some liberties but which is quite hilarious.
I haven't watched Lucifer, but if I remember correctly, it's based upon the DC Comics version of Lucifer, and if that's the case, the show should be worth watching.
