The Devil Knows Best - A Short Story Collection

Ok, so here’s the deal. You would like untold riches, power, fame and flesh. I can give you that for the rest of your earthly life. But I would like a little something in return. Of course, nothing so coarse as to hamper your rampant greed for the rest of your life. No, merely your soul for eternity. Is it a bargain we both agree? Splendid. Let us begin. Greed and desire are all things in small measure that we sometimes pursue but in the hands of authors such as Nathaniel Hawthorne, William Makepeace Thackeray, Anatole France and others the appetite for both is somewhat more ambitious.1 - The Devil Knows Best - A Short Story Collection - An Introduction2 - The Devil In Manuscript by Nathaniel Hawthorne3 - Belphagor by Niccolo Machiavelli4 - The Devil and Tom Walker by Washington Irving5 - Lucifer by Anatole France6 - The Devil's Wager by William Makepeace Thackeray7 - Madam Lucifer by Richard Garnett8 - The Devil's Mother-in-Law by Fernan Caballeron9 - From the Memoirs of Satan by Wilhelm Hauff
