Not sure what to say about this one. It was one of those that I started, but didn't think I'd finish, then I didn't have anything else on hand, so I finished it. After a certain point, too, I felt I had to. I, Lucifer is the story, well, of Satan. From the perspective of him as he exists while inhabiting the body of a failed writer/suicide (yep, failed at both) in London. Lots of Britticisms, and a really dry, sarcastic sense of humor that I really like. And what an interesting perspective to write from. Kind of like a car crash; you jest can't look away. Apparently this is going to be a movie in 2008; I'm interested to see how they do it.
(Bonus: he mentions Wombles!)

I love the Wombles. I just checked out the official Womble Web site. I didn't realize how many other Womble books are available. Sorry to say, none are at our library! I'd love to collect the original five. Keep your eyes open for me.
I just might have to watch this movie, if only because Ewan McGregor plays in it. :) Read a blurb about him today- didn't know he smokes so much! But still a charismatic character.

Yikes, and Daniel Craig will be in it too! I'll have to find a way to see that...
