The Narrator

The idea of the narrator wasn't in the plan for my original story. During the editing process, my editor noted I needed something more to start the story. The prologue wasn't working as written. Then I remembered the Screwtape Letters. It seemed a perfect vehicle for adding a narrator to my story. One who couldn't really be trusted, but claimed to be an eyewitness.

Book Excerpt

Dark Intent

Is it the story you take issue with, or is it me, the innocuous narrator? If it is the former, please know there is so much more to be told. If it is the latter, well, I can only certify I am who I say I am.

Over the centuries I have taken many forms and shapes. I have been female and male, animal and beast. No matter my presentation, one thing has always held true—my word. I am an honorable demon—if such a thing can exist in the depths of Hell. You can trust me. At least that has been the assumption here in the eighth circle.
