Book Description

December 12, 1984
Asmodeus Mogart was not a bad fellow, as demons go. Having gotten in trouble back in the home office, he had been assigned to duty on Earth. There he toiled, doing the kinds of things demons do and turning into something of a drunk.
Then a rogue asteroid threatened to crash into Earth and destroy all life on the planet -- demons included! There had to be a better way.
Mac Walters and Jill McCullough, holding a private wake for their world in a Reno bar, were more than startled when a strange-looking little drunk told them they could save the world.
All they had to do was enter five alternate universes and steal a demon-guarded jewel in each. Clearly, the man was crazy.
But they had nothing better to do than go along with the gag. Then they each found themselves, naked and alone, on a hostile alien world!

5.0 out of 5 stars A marvelous yarn about a doomed planet, March 3, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: And the Devil Will Drag You Under (Mass Market Paperback)
This is one of my all-time favorite books. An attempt to mine a passing asteroid has gone wrong, and the 'roid is now headed for earth (and this was written long before the current string of things-heading-for-earth disaster movies). As Earth prepares to die, a drunken demon summons two people to a bar in the middle of nowhere, and sends them on a series of impossible quests through alternate planes, in a desperate attempt to save the planet. But. . .it's always dangerous to make a deal with the devil. . . .

5.0 out of 5 stars Engrossing, funny, and interesting characters, July 4, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: And the Devil Will Drag You Under (Mass Market Paperback)
I first recieved this book as a gift when I was 6 or 7 years old. The cover of the devil scared me and I put it away in a drawer and forgot about it. Years later, as an early teen-ager, I read, and reread and reread it so often, I wore out the cover.

Its a great sci-fi story about populating different worlds and energies, interesting characters, and humourous situations. This is the one that got me into pop sci-fi. I think its his best, but that may be because it was the first one of his many I read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Made me a sci-fi fan, September 17, 1998
By 
This review is from: And the Devil Will Drag You Under (Mass Market Paperback)
This is the first book in this genre I ever read when I was a kid (12). It opened a whole new world to me and I still think it's number one of all the books I've ever read. I wish there were parts 2, 3, 4.... If you can ever find this book, it is definitely worth reading. -Mindy
