About Book of Bart:
“Demons, angels, golems, succubus, even pimpubus! Bartholomew is one wickedly entertaining demon… I read the book in a day, I couldn’t put it down. The action flowed on every page, and the mystery built and built.” ~Melody Winters, Goodreads Review “A fast paced, action-packed, humorous page turner that was really difficult to put down even when I had other pressing concerns nagging me.” ~Rakib Khan, Goodreads Review Working for the man upstairs stinks, but working with Samantha, an angel in training? Offensive! Only one thing is so powerful, so dangerous that Heaven and Hell must work together to find it: the Shard of Gabriel. With a mysterious Black Cloud of Death hot on the shard’s trail, a desperate Heaven enlists the help of Bartholomew, a demon who knows more about the shard than almost anyone. Six years ago, he had it in his hands. If only he’d used it before his coup to overthrow the Devil failed. Now, he’s been sprung from his eternal punishment to help Samantha, an angel in training, recover the shard before the Black Cloud of Death finds it. If Bart wants to succeed, he’ll have to fight the temptation to betray Samantha and the allure of the shard. After an existence full of evil, the only way Bart can get right with Hell is to be good.”
Excerpt from Book of Bart:
The nerve.
All the time I’d put in should’ve counted for something. The years. The effort. In the end, I was seemingly no better than common street trash. So what if I tried to take over the place? Getting thrown back to Earth without a reason or goodbye felt bad enough. I didn’t even get a pack of smokes and some walking cash. It was the disrespect that hurt the most. This place sucked. I wanted to go back to Hell.
A demon like myself deserved better.
Curled up on my side on a stretch of damp pavement, I felt like a cancer patient undergoing chemotherapy. My stomach felt sick and heavy. Even my bones vibrated like a tuning fork. Eventually, though, I managed to roll onto my back. High above me, framed by the squalid buildings that made up the alley, the crescent moon looked like a very pale butt cheek. I coughed, getting the last bit of sulfur and smoke out of my lungs, while questions bounced around in my pounding head.
What in Heaven was I doing back on Earth?Had my sentence been rescinded? Did I somehow escape without anyone knowing it, including myself?
And what was I lying in?

This resulted in an obsession with becoming a writer, but also a gross incompetence in the fields of science and mathematics. A graduate of North Carolina State University, Ryan has been a film critic for over five years. He lives in Raleigh, NC, with his dog/shadow Maggie. Ryan also feels strange about referring to himself in the third person.
