Gustave Dore’s depiction of what some call the most sympathetic serious treatment of the devil, John Milton’s “Paradise Lost”
It’s “Empathy for the devil” in chapter 9 of Magician’s Misfortune as Harry Eberhardt, demon slayer for the Office of Occult Affairs, finds out why having three empaths on the same case is a bad idea. Though he takes a fall for one of them at the end of the chapter!
Magician’s Misfortune is my weekly serial about the misadventures of Harry as he copes with a challenging assignment while trying to navigate his professional and personal troubles. A new chapter comes out every Friday morning. If you’ve not been reading it, you can start at the beginning.
