The Devil’s Saturnalia by Alexa Piper

Genre MM Romance, MM urban fantasy romance

Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R

While in Scotland for Lionel’s magic training with Hades, a murder case compels the Devil and his necromancer to stick around a little longer. Lionel, who still cannot control his demigod magic properly, doesn’t mind a murder investigation, because that is something a necromantic police consultant like himself knows how to handle.

Except, the investigation doesn’t go at all as Lionel thought it would. And when he decides he wants to open up to Lucifer, finally, that doesn’t go exactly as Lionel had feared either, but some surprises are good surprises, especially when Saturnalia is just around the corner.

Lucifer is delighted. He has his boyfriend, who finally opens up, and his boyfriend is all his, at least through the holidays. That much attention is exactly what Lucifer loves, and the holiday season would be entirely perfect — if it weren’t for an old enemy who is out for vengeance.

When someone dies, we say they “kicked the bucket.” Therefore, a list of things that a person wants to accomplish, places to go, situations to experience, and so on have become known as a “Bucket List.”

Age: older than the best wine you ever had and twice as delicious.

Gender: devil.

Birthplace: it’s a boring story, and I don’t like talking about it.

Profession: the Devil.

Ethnicity: chthonic.

Species (for scifi/fantasy characters): god, although humans prefer immortal.

Please provide a physical description of yourself.

Well, I’m the Devil, which means I’m handsome. Among all my many attributes, I’ve come to like my hair best. See how floofy it is? Among all the gods, I have the best hair.

Please tell us a little about yourself.

Uhm. I’m… the Devil?

Who is the significant other in your life?

That would be Nelly, my necromancer, although he is actually my boyfriend. He is stubborn, but I like that about him. He’s also smart–you know how a lot of humans aren’t smart? Nelly is nothing like that. He’s also powerful, and I’ve had him in a few positions that I probably shouldn’t describe in too much detail. He looked good in all of them.

If you haven’t made a bucket list before, perhaps now would be a good time. Who knows? It might inspire another book. While you’re at it, how about telling us about some of your other favorite things? Here are the questions.

What is your birth order?

Well, I’m… the Devil, you know. There’s just me. And for all the forensic technicians reading this, no, I really do not have any hot siblings.

Tell us about your favorite toy as a child.

I am the Devil, and I was never a child. Pfft. I did like setting things on fire when I was younger though, but that was a hobby at most.

Describe your favorite food and how it’s prepared.

I suppose you could call it… necromancer’s tears. What you do is, you get your necromancer and tie him to your bed. You touch him all over, and when he feels all slick under your hands, you just lick, lick, lick. You’ll have to get your own necromancer though, because I’m not sharing mine.

Tell us about your best friend.

That would be my housekeeper, Metatron, the angel who cares. She likes everything pastel and hot pink, gory anime, and sushi. And clean floors, of course.

What are two places you would like to visit before you die, and why?

What do you mean, die? Did you miss the part where I said I was the Devil? There is a reason why humans call gods immortal, you know.

Where is a place you would never like to return, and why?

The necromancer office in the Brunswick PD murder unit. It’s where my boyfriend’s trainee “necromancer” is, and that man wants to touch what is mine. Also, there are no windows in that office.

Who is someone you would like to meet, and why?

Bram Stoker. I never got the chance, way back when. I’d ask him to get a few books signed for me.

Who is someone you would like to avoid, and why?

Not really anyone. I like people. I’d especially like to meet Marc Deacon for a snorkeling trip in shark infested waters.

If you could time travel to any date, what would it be, and what would you do there?

The Spring Equinox twenty-five years ago. I’d make sure a certain orphan ended up in a Scottish castle rather than an orphanage.

Meet Alexa Piper

Why did you choose this character for the interview today?

Has he mentioned he’s the Devil? He made me do it.

When writing the book, what did you discover about this character that surprised you?

He is a softie for his boyfriend. And he can be very vulnerable too.

Are any sequels planned for this book?

As a matter of fact, the series consists of six books with one additional holiday novella, A Devilish Saturnalia, which will be available on December 23.

What genre(s) would you like to write that you haven’t tried yet?

Sci-fi romance!
