Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, set in the Middle Ages, follows Lucifer, the fallen angel, as he seeks redemption through love. Once the favourite of God, he was cast down to Hell after leading his legions in a failed rebellion. Now, he plots to win back his former glory by corrupting humans. His main target is Dahüt, a devout young woman whose beauty captivates Lucifer and who seems pure of heart. However, Dahüt is not who she appears to be. She has been repeatedly traumatized by the brutality of her family and social circle. While she worships God, she is open to a darker form of salvation. In seeking her favours, Lucifer seeks a way to recreate himself through her and achieve the pinnacle of triumph against his rivals in Hell and in Heaven. He offers her a way to restore her family to their former position, Dahüt must choose between the comforting but unreliable Divinity of her father, and the exciting, forbidden, but potentially fruitful power of Lucifer. The book explores themes of love, redemption, and religion, and will appeal to readers interested in stories about Lucifer, fallen angels, medieval settings, and morality plays. The author delves into the idea that Lucifer, while a fundamentally selfish and self-serving being, is in this case pursuing an honest form of love, and perhaps redemption as a result. At the same time, he unpacks how a romantic attachment can obscure our judgment and lead us to commit truly heinous acts.
