Summary: A great take on the bible..
Review: If you are like me and love biblical horror or different takes on the bible you'll love this book. If you are easily offended or religious this book isn't for you.What if Lucifer was right and God was wrong? What if we were created to be mindless sheep for a childish God? What happens if Lucifer tries to help the human race? That is what the book is about. I would have given it 5 stars except for two things. It is written in biblical English; vague and with Ye, Thous etc. It can make a sometimes complicated storyline even more complicated. Secondly it is a little short and skips over parts of the bible like the great flood but spends too much time on other parts. All in all if you are into this genre you'll love the book.

Summary: A Very Enjoyable Read!
Review: If in your lifetime you have become familiar with the Bible for whatever reason, You owe it to yourself to read this book. A rare combination of excellent research, biting commentary and plain fun!
On another note had this been written 2000 years ago and taken as seriously as it's also fictional counterpart years of human misery may have been averted!
Now having said that, You want an enjoyable read? Go no further.

Summary: The Devil Gets His Due!
Review: An excellent book, and one which has become an instant classic among Satanists and other "Dark Side" types, and believe me, we can be a quite picky crowd when it comes to media portrayals of the Prince of Darkness! Mr. De Vito should actually be rather proud of the horrified reaction his book has evoked from the religious right. Fiction or not, he has said things that needed to be said, and has shown the very rare courage of letting the Devil speak for himself. This is a book which will be talked about for many years to come.

Review: A neat idea, but very little depth.

Summary: Fantastic!
Review: I found this book quite by accident, and I am very happy I did. It is well written, believable because it makes does make a lot of sense, and scarey because it does.
I am sure the author will get a lot of flack from people with closed minds. That's too bad, because I recommend to everyone who has ever wondered - "why and how". With that in mind, I sent a copy to my son, who has wondered the same thing.

Summary: The Religion of Life
Review: This is a phenominal read. I could have done without the rape mentioned in this book, as I think it didn't lend much to the story. Most people are well aware of the atrocities that have been committed in the name of God. But the most important point this book makes is not that God is evil. It is that the cycle of power is always a circle. What is just eventually becomes what is righteous. What is righteous eventually becomes what is unjust. Not even God is immune, and this is proven in the bible itself on several occasions. I reccommend this book to anyone with an open mind. It is well written, and provides a healthy dose of balance to what is becoming once again religious fanaticism taking the place of common sense in this world.

Summary: Rejecting God...
Review: one should read the Bible first and decide for one's self if it is true. do not judge God by those that "claim" to follow or speak for them. Jesus condemned the Pharisee's for hypocrisy.
this book is very harsh, by someone that, in my opinion, does not know God and yet does know the devil. This kind of a book is to prepare people to accept the beast that is coming. God is judging people on their actions. words mean nothing and actions reflect what you really think and feel.

Summary: Sorry Excuse for a book

Summary: twisted mix of biblical mythology and fiction
Review: The Devil's Apocrypha, takes this whole theology to a new realm and dimension. I was so engrossed in this novel, at times I thought that it may well indeed be credible. Unfortunately, it lacks some consistency, and there are a few points that could use some polishing. Overall, it has become my favorite book of all time, a relativistic dream come true: a twisted mix of biblical mythology and fiction, leads for an extremely compelling read. I would recommend this book to anyone who is anyone to read it. It really makes you think and wonder, and leaves you with a sense of accomplishment and though provoking materials. Even though the book is a great counterpart to the biblical mythology - spelling out the history of the fallen ones, in their battle against the Holy Trinity: in their attempt to save mankind from an eternity in slavery to the higher powers; I still found a few points which made the book that much less appealing. The first point is the fact that the mythology of the great flood, the book of enoch, or the story of the fallen angels - the watchers, is studiously omitted - not even mentioned in passing. Secondly, a prayer given in the middle of the book is simply the lords prayer transposed, reverse, and printed upsides down: for such a creative author, he could have translated to latin or aramaic first before transposing it. Finally, the last book (chapter) - the book of prophecy, seems to be to hard of an attempt to describe events in the current day and age in a mythical and prophetic tone; as if it were added as more of a footnote, rather then a part of this awesome book. It does end up leaving some questions unanswered, and some of the stories are left in discontinuous array - some names are transposed and forgotten, and stories that should have been told have been omitted. But other then that, the forward and afterward really sets the tone for the book, and is a great work of creative fiction, based on the biblical mythology. I highly recommend this book to everyone.

Summary: Mezmerizing and enchanting work of....?
Review: I personally believe that this book that I just finished reading 5 minutes ago and was entranced to seek others who have read it is religious fiction. Presented with the genre of Apocrypha, validated with antiquity, originated from the land of the papacy (how appropriate). I think it is the work of De Vito and my hats off to him because I have never read a whole book in such a short time. After reading the Devil's Apocrypha I put on Goldsmith's score of The Omen, I found solace in what is known as "the deep things of Satan." I no longer fear Satan, I find comfort in him and now I fear God's wrath for feeling this way. So do you believe that God has our best interests at heart or does Satan? Choose now or choose when Armaggedon begins. Peace to the most beautiful and destructive force that has ever existed, the Human Race.
