I love this book.
Some previous reviewers had a hard time with the language: the narrator frequently apologizes for going on tangents, but I found it to be endearing. Duncan was able to simultaneously create a character that was both the epitome of evil but also very, very human. You are charmed by his charismatic qualities and in the same page will be in tears over his indifference to stealing, drugs, the Spanish Inquisition, Nazis, all things he started/encouraged to get you to turn away from God. There is a definite love/hate there for me, the reader, when he gets flustered reminding you that he has always been there for you. This has joined my (ever growing) list of favorite books.
PS. Supposed to be a movie with Daniel Craig as Lucifer and Ewan McGregor as Gunn.
