A collection of stories recounting Irish encounters with the Devil. 'Don't mind the light, Martin. There'll be plenty o' that where you're going - an' heat to go with it.'

An odd fact, but one not entirely to be wondered at, is that Devil stories far outnumber tales about his opposite number - God - in Irish tradition. Can it be that we Irish are in some fallen way more comfortable with the infernal than with the celestial?
