Book Review
The following review was originally published by Tera on her Blog, A Succubi's Tale on January 16, 2026
There are some secrets that should never be revealed. Inspiration that never should be considered. And if one is not careful, the muse can turn out to be a nightmare and not the dream she seems to be.
The work is a very short, what I call a pamphlet, mystery with a bit of an erotic hot flash mixed with a little succubus influence around the edges. It’s really less about the succubus herself than it is about the main character falling to his carnal needs before her. There is a slow burn in that respect that doesn’t climax until the very last page.
Throughout the story, there is an ever-present feeling of impending doom and darkness that never leaves. The story is thick with Lilith, the succubus of the story, and her influence on all around her, especially the main character. The awaiting fate is telegraphed from her first appearance and how things end is more disappointing as it’s expected long before it appears.
Lilith is very much a being of sexual desire, manipulation and control. She devours those around her for her hunger and it’s very clear she is utterly evil with really nothing redeeming within her character. She’s right on the edge of being a stereotypical succubus and that honestly was the most disappointing thing of all. She could have been more of a seductress, a schemer, to come into conflict with others and draw them to her control, but those paths weren’t taken by the story.
Two and a half out of five pitchforks.
The work feels so very much rushed to get to the ending and I think that’s a shame. There’s so little said about Lilith herself and so she remains a mystery, if one that is fairly clear from the start. Perhaps this needed to be more of a journey than it was, mostly because there are moments where the story could have told something more in depth, but never got there.
