Mike

Very entertaining

Revisado: 04-07-21

This book was a joy to listen to. At first it seemed like a rip-off of iZombie but it then went in a different direction. Angel’s transformation from an individual who had little self-worth to a strong, independent person was worth the read.

These books are great

Revisado: 02-07-18

Would you listen to I'm No Angel again? Why?

Absolutely! I have listened to the other books multiple times and have enjoyed them each time.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I like all the characters very much. But, I think my favorite character is Beelzebub. Yes he is a prince devil but the character has integrity and, I think, he likes Steve Minion more than he lets on.

What does Michael Gilboe bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Mr. Gilboe has a tremendous speaking style. The different voices he uses for the characters are excellent.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

He may be saved but he still likes to raise some Hell.

Any additional comments?

I took a chance on reading the first book, "Hell's Super". Thankfully I enjoyed the book so much that I immediately purchased the second book "A Cold Day in Hell". From that point on I was hooked. I assumed after the fourth book, "The Reluctant Demon", the sage of Steve Minion was over. To my surprise, and relief, Mr. Cain wrote the fifth book.

I was able to get in contact with Mr. Cain and he said more Circle of Hell books will be coming out. That was great news and I can't wait for the next book to come out.

Mark Cain...please keep up the good work and write one of the books about the Dweebles.

Not My Favorite Of The Series

Revisado: 07-17-17

What did you love best about Deal with the Devil?

How Minion tries not to be persuaded to be come a demon

What other book might you compare Deal with the Devil to and why?

The first two Circles in Hell books.

What about Michael Gilboe’s performance did you like?

All of it. He does great voices and is easy to listen to.

If you could take any character from Deal with the Devil out to dinner, who would it be and why?

I would like to say Lilith but that would be too easy. I would have to say Orson because I have questions about "Citizen Kane".

Any additional comments?

My headliner for this comment is a bit misleading. I loved the book but I didn't like the ending. It was sad and frustrating.
