About this listen

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.

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.

Great Story, bad reader :-(

I was so distracted by the voice and limitations of the reader that I wish I had gotten the physical copy to read myself. There were errors in pronunciation and distracting intonation that too away from a truly compelling tale. I stopped listening after the first chapter, but reconsidered thinking that maybe I was just being picky. Now I’m almost done and have suffered through it—however when I heard “social mores” pronounced like a campside snack without the leading S, I had to leave this review. Sorry.

Even until the End….

I found this book to be gripping, inspiring and painfully insightful. To those who do not know the Lord, I would implore you to listen to this book. After all is said and done the simple truth could have been written I one sentence, We have received a gift, His Grace and His Mercy, unmerited and undeservedly. The new saying now is “woke”, are you woke? I am so humbled to have been chosen to see and receive HIS unwavering love, compassion and most of all HIS Mercy. I will recommend this book to an atheist I know, maybe it will do him some good, if not, I guess he will find himself like Clay in this book.

Powerful and Thought-Provoking

Tosca Lee weaves a beautiful, intricate story of a beleaguered editor who receives a most unusual book proposal. As the story grows, he unlocks a world he had only thought myth, and he finds more than he’d imagined. Tremendous read.

Can't stop listening!!!

Tosca Lee presents a narrative that makes you look at life and the scriptures from a different perspective. Too often we play church, and we have a choice to make.

The Demon’s perspective

What would you do if a demon approached you about writing their story? The man Clay, a book editor, is approached by a demon named Lucian, who is determined to tell his story. The editor and the demon meet in many places as Lucian tells his story going back to before time began- before the fall of the angels. It’s fascinating to hear this perspective of the narrative. We often only think of God’s perspective, or Satan’s. We’ve considered the Biblical view, or Paradise Lost, but this book shows the same story from a fallen angel’s view. Lucian hates humans because we have been offered something the angels never were: redemption. The angels lived and experienced God in a way that we could never understand, and that relationship was destroyed with Lucifer’s fall and they can never be restored to union with El. The demon’s story devours Clay, destroying his health and his career, but is it enough to show him the path to his redemption? I love stories of angels and demons that provide more color and food for imagination for understanding the world beyond ours.

This is for seekers and mystics.
