As Brock Johnson lay dying, he was offered another chance at life. He's been on the run from the terms of that contract ever since.

Calvin Demmer's short story "Faster" is a new take on the deal with the devil trope, with a clever twist. Is there ever a way to get out of the deal once you've signed away your soul? Brock thinks he has found a way to keep the devil at bay... but at what cost?

I've been a fan of Demmer's short stories for years. They're always entertaining and pack a punch in a small package. This was no exception. I can't say this one was particularly scary but it was still a hell of a good time. ( )

Brock Johnson had made a deal with the devil and I wonder when the final payment will come do. Brock had managed to circumvent it…at least for a while. He had always feared someone like Mick would come along. Whew! And Delilah? Oh man, it ended way too soon. And now my mind wanders…good job, Calvin. I’ll be thinking about this for a while, especially whenever I’m on the road…wanting to drive FASTER. That earns an extra star. LOL

I voluntarily reviewed a free copy of Faster by Calvin Demmer.
