Fresh Fiction Review

The Demon Rolmar

Science Fiction

Rolmar is a demon that is tasked with the job of destroying Earth. Before he does this, he will visit the planet. During this trip, his experience proves to be life changing as he meets many different humans and begins to feel strange things that he's never felt before. Will he follow through with his original plan and rid the universe of planet Earth or will he spare the world and its inhabitants?

THE DEMON ROLMAR is a short read, more like a novella. I was able to finish it in one day. Demons are a subject that both frighten and interest me, so when I read the blurb for the book, I was excited to see where it would go. This was a new take on the subject for me. With more of a sci-fi bent, this tale shows us another world that is inhabited by demons, demons whose purpose is to destroy other planets not worthy of living. Once they mark a planet to be destroyed, one of them must visit the planet to make sure it is not worth saving. I had never thought of demons as judges and planet destroyers. We are given a fair look at Rolmar, and as the story advances, his character grows. The humans we are introduced to are all delightful in their own ways even if not explored quite enough at times. Independent author A.V.Griffin is able to bring a creative and entertaining story in her debut.

SUMMARY

Rolmar is a heartless, misanthropic demon who serves as one of the three overlords of Pentar, a planet in the Amenis dimension. When Rolmar's brethren bestow upon him the illustrious task of destroying Earth, his growing curiosity of humans adds a momentary pause to his original plan. Still intent on annihilating Earth, Rolmar extends his stay in order to discover what makes humanity unique. However, when Adam, a quirky college student, crosses paths with the all-powerful demon, one fateful night will change his life forever. Haunted by nightmares of his mind-blowing encounter, Adam can't return to his normal life. His only path to solace is attempting to convince the demon that Earth is worth saving. With the fate of the world on their shoulders, will Adam and his friends be able to convince Rolmar that they and all of mankind should be spared?
