Too much romance, and not enough mystery. The author gives everything away to the reader, then makes him or her tag along for hundreds of pages while the protagonists catch up. The romance isn't even very believable.

My nineties college experience did not include the Dark Lord or sexy ghosts, but I wouldn't know about Australian colleges. A more paranormal approach to academia might explain why the three graduate students of Grimoire are so accepting of satanic rituals and ghostly sexy times. It's good fun and delightfully bonkers, but pretty dated and not in a good way. Topics of sexual assault and consent are not exactly deftly handled, and some characters behave in utterly bizarre ways (and not just because of Satan), but I did mostly enjoy it as one big "oh dear".

Ah, my first foray into Gothic Horror and boy, was it STEAMY. I was probably a tad too young to be reading this but I dug it... the cover I found in the school library was different to this one (although the cover listed here may have shown me what I was in for). The story itself is compelling and full of horror and intrigue.
I've gotta track it down and revisit, and see if it's as horny as I remember haha.
