Overall, a very original take on the devil, and how the choices we make effect us all throughout our lives, whether we realize it at the time, or not. I had a few minor parts that I just didn't feel fit with the personalities of certain characters, but as it was a novella, I may be "overanalyzing" a bit too much.

3.5 stars.
