The Devil's own sins
Community Rating
Description
Writer updates available for free on patreon.
The following account, dear reader, is a recollection and retelling of the story of the first imp. The last devil born from the original primordial pit at the dawn of time, and the lowliest speck of that first generation. It recounts the tale of Thozronnath the pitiful and his steady rise from obscurity, perpetually stuck as a punching bag for his betters until the day hell itself spat him out. The information presented here is pieced together from eye-witness reports and second hand hearsay, sometimes from creatures with more than two hands. I can not tell you with any degree of accuracy how much of it is true as it begins long before our time and it's true ending lies far unto the future still. I can tell you one thing though, it was confusingas hell.

- HyenasRoyal Road★★★★ 3.5I liked several things about the story.
It had fun. This is critical. So many get BORING to the point of tears.
It had a bit of sex. OK, a bit more than a bit. Not the steamiest I have seen on Royal Road, but it was appreciated.
It didn't get boring and overly repetitive.
It ended - kind of.
I think adding minions helped a lot.
Bad points
The author should have done basic proof reading. I found THAT many English errors was VERY annoying to me. It's like the author didn't value their own work enough to copy/paste it into Grammarly Free and do a check.
The ending was 100% abrupt and mid-stream. It wasn't a partial wrap-up. Boom, slam, literally while during movement.
While it promised continuation, not one word has been posted. So, that "completed" is quite misleading.
