About this listen

A brilliant and satirical look at today’s spiritual warfare—told through letters written by a Senior Tempter to a new, Junior Tempter under his tutelage.

The Evil One has updated and modernized his lies and temptations, but his objective is the same: steer one more soul onto the broad road that leads to his home Below.

Follow along as Senior Demon Deumus teaches fledgling tempter Bentrock how to steer his prey, a Texas prison inmate, toward the wide gate that leads to destruction. One would think that securing the damnation of this "bunch of criminals, thugs, and addicts" would be an easy task, but, as Deumus notes, it is not. "If they start to consider themselves - now naked and in a cage - the terrible, awful, incontrovertible truth occurs to even the hardest heart: I was made for more than this."

Listeners will find themselves immersed in this realistic look at how tempters cynically leverage the modern culture and our human weaknesses to pursue their prey, both in prison and in the "free world". Fortunately for our inmate, he is not alone in this fight. None of us are.In the tradition of C.S. Lewis' classic work The Screwtape Letters, Lucifer's tempters pursue a new generation of "Prey" inside a Texas Prison.

Demons. Temptations. Redemption?

A very interesting & engaging premise. Update CS Lewis's classic 'Screwtape Letters., about a Demon's quest to lead Human souls to temptation and damnation, and update this to the 21st century. The story is packed full of insights into how our world is full of degenerative practices, that when held up to scrutiny, are ... soul destroying!

But this is not a diatribe, or a bombastic rant, or is engaging dramatic narrative. The central character, Senior Demonic Tempter Deumus is a terribly flawed, but engaging narrator. His tribulations with his Apprentice are shot through with dark humour, anger and frustration. Their journey is cleverly intertwined with that of their prisoner Prey.
The narration is engaging and Deumus is brought to life. The epistolary nature of the narrative allows for other voices to emerge and give distance for reflection.

An engaging and insightful audiobook. 5☆
