The Devil takes a Holiday

by Lisanne Valente

I’m bored! How is it possible that I, the ruler of the underground, me - Satan - the Devil aka - Prince of Darkness, is bored? I’ll tell you why…. Mistdreamers and their meddling! Yet again, they defeated my demons in battle.

How is this possible? Three young women against my demons - it is unbelievable and more importantly, unforgivable. Someone will pay for this and as the demon prince Lucias has gone into hiding, my next target will be my friend Flauros.

He will explain this catastrophe and if he cannot, then there is a special place in hell waiting for him! The Devil takes a holiday after he hears the abomination that was the Mistdreaming war and decides he has to go to earth to correct the wrongs done to his demons.

His vacation will begin in Glencoe, where the battle began in 1692, he will meet with the Laird of the McDonalds…. Best laid plans always go awry and as he plans his vacation, the archangels Omniel and Ambriel decide to make his journey a very different one.

The Devil takes a Holiday will travel to the Isle of Mull and Castle Moy, the Devil will venture to Glencoe and experience Edinburgh’s Festival. It introduces the reader to the children of Mistdreamers from The Park Family trilogy, together with revisiting old friends from these books.

The reader will welcome Mermaids and Fae, as well as the Dragon. A book that includes a recipe of evil, manipulation, betrayal and magic all mixed together to make the first Novella a must read addition to any library.
