Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
From Jack Haldeman's tale of a university professor's fatal love of scholarship ("A Later Date") to Frank Robinson's look behind the Hollywood scene ("Dealer's Choice"), the 32 stories in this collection offer variations on one of literature's most famous-or infamous-themes: pacts with the Devil. Contributions by verteran sf and fantasy authors, that include Mercedes Lackey, David Gerrold, and Judith Tarr, coupled with a number of new writers, ensures a broad spectrum of approaches, from classic to high tech. This should be popular in most libraries.

Nice, tight and full of the devil,

This review is from: Deals with the Devil (Paperback)
A solid collection of extremely well-written and accesible tales about the oldest villain in the game: Satan. The takes some people have on him are numerous and colorful, and there's almost not a single stinker in the book. Not inundated with stories that require degrees in theology, either. Great fantasy with a social edge, and good for people who don't even dig fantasy.
