Plot Summary
She came for his soul, but left with his heart...
Jonathan Vandervoo lives a carefree life in a house made of legos, spending his days building lego sculptures and his nights getting drunk with his only friend--an alcoholic sumo wrestler named Shoji. It's a pleasant life with no responsibility, until the day he meets Lici. She's a soul-sucking demon from hell with red skin, glowing eyes, a forked tongue, and pointy red devil horns... and she claims to be nine months pregnant with Jonathan's baby.
Now Jonathan must do the right thing and marry the succubus or else her demonic family is going to rip his heart out through his ribcage and force him to endure the worst torture hell has to offer for the rest of eternity. But can Jonathan really love a fire-breathing, frog-eating, cold-blooded demoness? Or would eternal damnation be preferable? Either way, the big day is approaching. And once Jonathan's conservative Christian family learns their son is about to marry a spawn of Satan, it's going to be all-out war between demons and humans, with Jonathan and his hell-born bride caught in the middle.
Book Review
The following review was originally published by Tera on her Blog, A Succubi's Tale on July 8, 2022
Jonathan is happy in his Lego house, managing to find his way through life with his friends. But a note left from someone called Lici opens the door to more serious things for him. It’s complicated, but that’s life isn’t it?
Lici, the succubus of the work, is very much an anime succubus in her style, voice and personality. She’s not evil, more a slightly confused tease of a succubus, and that does have its moments. Her family is interesting, if somewhat over the top which has its amusements as well.
The work is very much themed like an Anime story, the characters, the events and setting all point towards that. There’s a number of moments which feel like they have the emotional impact of a cartoon, and the more humorous moments really press that feeling home.
The work needs a serious editing in tone, style, word structure and dialogue, however. It reads very much like an Anime being translated to English very poorly and that’s a real shame. It’s just so very odd a story to read as a result and that didn’t work for me overall.
Two and a half pitchforks out of five.
I just couldn’t find my way into the story. The storytelling just didn’t work for me and that kept pulling me out of the story as I tried to figure out what was happening. There’s something good here, but without the missing emotions and understanding, it just neve becomes the story it should be.
