Succubus Lord (Succubus Lord (Completed Series) Book 1)

This was the first novel by Eric Vall I have raid and I have to say based on this I am a fan! The MC is fun and not one of these wishy-washy types afraid to get it on with the hot ladies that appear in this sort of book. As a fan of harem and erotic novels, I hate those types. The girls are hot Cupi is a fit blonde, and Libidine is a huge breasted dark haired beauty. Bonus points for giant assets!The Magic System is cool as is his take on the world and Mythology. The interplay between the characters is fun and Lively. The MC's roomate often steals the show with a great one liner or gag.If I could change one thing it's that in the last half of the book there's really no sex. And that was a bummer. Still it was a fun ending, and I hope for many more books in this line.

This is definitely more raunchy than the author's other books but is mainly in the character interactions.I don't remember there being any descriptions of the bedroom antics that the MC gets into or the supporting characters. The only idea of what happened is really talk about it afterwards or jokes made at the villian's expense.The MC and his imp sidekick are a pretty funny duo with how they act towards one another. They have a good bro friendship and are always happy. The imp is a stoner stereotype, smoking all the time and being smart on the weirdest of topics. The MC is always in a good mood and just takes what life is giving him as it comes. With the succubi always in the forefront of his mind, it is hard for him to get upset unless he has to to use his powers. Just be prepared for a lot of frat humor between the two.The succubi are pretty much the stereotypical representation of them, such as always craving sex and being sexy as hell all the time. They help the MC develop his powers (yes through sex) so he can fight their demon pimp so they can stay with him.The book mainly follows the characters as they try finding a way for the succubi to stay with the MC.There are hardly any grammar mistakes with is a blessing.Can't wait to see how it progresses.

Damn good story from start to finish! Even though this is the first book in the series the adventure was excellent I know there are 18 more books to go but this has endless possibilities!

This book is exactly what it looks like on the tin, nothing less yet nothing more. It's a sex filled origin story of a man named Jacob whose best friend and roommate Todd buys a book off the internet that allows them to summon Succubi. The book works, and each roommate gets a powerful lady demon to satisfy their wishes. The main character gets sex. The roommate becomes an imp. The lady demons decide they like the MC so much they're going to make him their new master. This upsets the old master, who demands revenge... but pairing ones' self with demons gains them abilities tied to that emotional bond. Before long Jacob is off to Hell to stake an even greater claim for his two lovers.I didn't hate this book. The writing style and characterizations fit a light hearted action book. Todd, the roommate turned imp, is a bit much, but it works for this story. The main character is just strong enough to move forward in this hero's journey and just bland enough any male reader can imagine they are him. The way the character's dialogue plays off of each other makes sense and can be entertaining. The power system and how it ties to emotion is an interesting twist, the fights are quick yet visceral, and the sex doesn't try to pretend to be anything other than erotic titillation.And yet, that is also this book's biggest crime. It is very by the numbers. It's presentation is fresh but its story feels very "done before." Everything the main character needs to succeed comes to him very conveniently. The main character starts in a town that could be any American Metropolis by the way it is loosely described. The way fights play out are adequately described but play out in exceptionally predictable fashion. The sex scenes are more tell than show, which is going to be a turn off for some, feeling less like an integrated part of the story and more like classic Hustler Readers Letters.All this creates an unusual irony, for me. I don't regret reading this book, but I don't feel compelled to read or listen to more of the books in this franchise (and holy hell, I was surprised to see there's over a dozen of them.) Eric Vall has a solid style that lends itself well to entertaining and exciting but if this story were a movie I'd probably only watch it on Netflix in the background while I was doing something else. It's a snack, not a bite.Audiobook is spot on though, so if given the option if you're interested in the book check it out.

It was a nice treat to witness some great interactions between each of the characters. I will say that it was weird to have Jason react so neutrally to his best friend's antics, but I guess since he knows what Todd is like and needs someone to keep an eye on him that he accepts all the consequences of that choice. Although, it did get annoying with not only the font change and spacing but it got even confusing when the wrong character gets identified during conversations in certain chapters.

The book is fine, very entertaining and funny. The plot isn’t very original, but is fairly good. The magic system is very creative and well done.The characters are good, the MC and his buddy are very funny and well developed. But the women are one dimensional; they are there for the fanservice and the needed exposition. They aren’t very appealing characters.There is a trend in these books, one I don’t like, that the MC embraces his new life –and all its craziness- at ones, without any hesitation. I understand this kind of book doesn’t have much depth, but the way they act is weird, and the quickness to develop and use the magic is too much. A person has to train years of years to master something; it doesn't use his recently acquired powers with mastery in a few minutes… and definitely not to defat a master daemon with thousands of years of experience.The last thing I want to address is the lazy blurb; I can’t understand what the author was thinking. Is he focusing on his established reader base? Because these crappy blurbs aren't the way to add new readers.
