Much better than Prosper's Demon. The sarcastic humour is still there, but we follow a demon now, and not the exorcist. The plot is way more interesting, it's the neverending battle between good and evil - it's weird how Parker's 3 short stories (that I've read so far) are centered around religion, and while I had my doubts about it, I found all 3 reflective. This one made me think about faith too, all the while the story reminded me about Good Omens in a good way. Recommended.
