Lucifer’s Odyssey (Primal Patterns Book 1)
Imagine a war between angels and demons that extends across our universe. Now, think bigger. Imagine that the fight between Lucifer and Jehovah extends across not only our universe but also involves two more ancient universes filled with demons and elves.
The Lucifer’s Fall trilogy of the Primal Patterns series is the story of the most celebrated demon warrior and king in history, and the birth of a moral and intellectual renaissance in the Chaos Universe. The first book, “Lucifer’s Odyssey”, traces the demon prince Lucifer from his imprisonment by Jehovah on Earth to the betrayal of his parents in Chaos and a shaky alliance with the Elven people. Filled with irreverent humor and fast paced action, Lucifer’s Odyssey beckons you to take a journey through space and time into a story where elven technology meets the ruthlessness of the demon race and the potential of Jehovah’s great creations.
“Lucifer’s Odyssey” is the first book of the Lucifer’s Fall trilogy, and book one in the Primal Patterns series. The series continues with more personal views into the struggles of angels, elves and demons in “The Goblin Rebellion” and finishes with the apocalyptic final battle between Lucifer and Jehovah in “Shadows of Our Fathers”.
This Sixth Edition of Lucifer’s Odyssey includes a bonus chapter at the end that expands on the Primal Patterns story.
Author’s Note: For many readers, the context of this series involving Lucifer and Jehovah may be jarring. To better understand if this series is right for you, you may want to read my blog post which describes why the story of Lucifer and Jehovah are so different in this series.
