Who doesn't want eternal damnation?,
By A Customer
This review is from: Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus (Barron's Book Notes) (Paperback)
I loved this book, although there were some slow points that lowered the rate, and it was just a wee bit too moral for me (also known as Christina Faust, also known as High Priestess of The Elder Gods). But I loved it, anyway. Faust is just so cool. This story makes soul-dealing really fashionable (which probably wasn't what Mr Marlowe meant in the first place). In fact, if I hadn't read it at the impressionable age of eleven, I would surely just be another bored small-town student today, instead of having infinite power over all shattered souls in this insane swirl of chaos that is Azathoths realm.
