Duncan has been hailed by the Times Literary Supplement (London) as one of Britains 20 best young novelists. His new novel is a satirical tour-de-force fueled by a scorching, hyperintelligent wit that burns up the pages. nThe end is nigh and the Prince of Darkness has just been offered one hell of a deal: reentry into Heaven for eternity--if he can live out a well-behaved life in a human body on earth. Its the ultimate case of trying without buying and, despite the limitations of the human body in question (previous owner one suicidally unsuccessful writer, Deelan Gunn), Luce seizes the opportunity to run riot through the realm of the senses. This is his chance to straighten the biblical record (Adam, its hinted, was a misguided variation on the Eve design), to celebrate his favorite achievements (everything from the Inquisition to Elton John), and, most important, to get Julia Roberts attached to his screenplay. But the experience of walking among us isnt what His Majesty expected: instead of teaching us what its like to be him, Lucifer finds himself understanding what its like to be us. n By an author hailed by the Times Literary Supplement as one of Britains top twenty young novelists, I, Lucifer is a masterpiece...startlingly witty, original and beautifully written (Good Book Guide). n
