Yet another Very funny Clovenhoof book. This one had me laughing out loud more than usual. The neighbors, Nerys and Ben are trying to attend night school with Clovenhoof and the fun ensues because of course Jeremy starts to teach the class when the teacher is mysteriously absent. There is a wedding that features Jeremy and his two dwarf friends. Two demons make an appearance, Rutspud and Slugwrench and finally the three neighbors decide they want to build a shed in the back yard and not surprisingly everything goes to hell, hilarious !

Eleven will written haunting horror ghost 👻 Clovenhoof adventure thriller short stories by Eeide Goody and Iain Grant. Each story is different with interesting well developed characters lots of action and misdirection leading to the unexpected conclusions. Clovenhoof is satan as he goes through life in the neighborhood. I would recommend this novel and author to 👍 readers of paranormal fantasy adventure mystery novels 👍🔰. Enjoy the adventure of reading 👓 or listening 🎶 to Alexa read books 📚. 2023 😡😮😕😢

Several short stories containing characters from the previous three book. An oddly irreverent, motley crew of characters at that.

Several stories seem to have been written before the actual Clovenhoof arc, and that's fine. The biggest one outside the story arc is when three take night classes.

Herein rest other stories of Clovenhoof's first days on earth. And his fear of prison. Knowing real prison is not a reality TV show.

These shorts add depth to the Clovenhoof saga. Most are real snorters.

Good fun.

3.0 out of 5 stars Read this after Clovenhoof
Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2015

While this collection of short stories comes third in the series, I recommend reading it directly after Clovenhoof. There are a few character developments that take place in Pigeonwings that are not represented here, so logically, I believe it comes before that one. For the most part, the stories focus on Clovenhoof's antics with Nerys and Ben. However, there are a couple that introduce new characters to the series, namely St. Christopher. Overall, it was a quick and fun read.

If you haven't read Clovenhoof and Pigeonwings then do yourself a favor and check them out. Lots of laugh out loud moments and a deep thought or two... This collection of shorts really comes between the two novels and explains a few things. But mainly it's worth reading for the good laughs. Goody and Grant have made the Lord of the Underworld into an almost sympathetic character as he confronts the mortal world with just Lambrini, a sense of humor and two friends who are up for almost anything. Best of all, it's not preaching to you, just offering many laughs at this thing we call life.

Not just Clovenhoof. This collection of "shorts" are a fair old mix. All very funny in their own ways. St. Christopher's first appearance is one of my favourite bits.

Loved the story of St. Christopher in his new job. Clovenhoof was his usual Mr. Bean with a whole lot of demented and psychotic self.

BTW who's the oldest resident of hell? Cain?

Entertaining read for a cheap read. The humour seems a little forced at times. This is the book you read when you have a "Book Hangover" from a particularily excellent book you have just finished. (and the price was right) A generous 3 stars

Satan's Shorts is only the second of the series I've read - Cloverhoof was the first and I'll definitely be reading the lot. I found both of them hilarious. Not only are Satan's hijinks in Suburbia devious and innocent at the same time but you can imagine them happening to the chaotic trio. Lots of play on words and unexpected twists and the heavenly host is also amusingly described. Carry on Heide and Iain. Well done!

4.0 out of 5 stars Laughs A Plenty!

I seriously enjoyed this collection of short stories featuring the deposed King of Hell, now known as Jeremy Clovenhoof whilst on Earth. He is totally clueless how things work and it's a comedy of errors watching him trying to interact with humans. He's like a very naughty 14yo boy (he's quite obsessed with his genitals!) and even though he has juvenile moments you can't help giggling at his antics. He's made friends with Ben and Nerys, who think he's more than a few sandwiches short of a picnic, but they're always there to back him up.
There are additional shorties featuring Heaven and Hell and while not quite as funny as Jeremy's tales there are LOL moments.
If you are looking for a light hearted, funny book that you can read in short munches then you can't go wrong with this offering.
