19 Most Devilish and Faustian Books - Abebooks

This is a list that Abebooks put together. Some involve the Faustian pact, some don't. There's a lot about temptation. It's a mixture of old classics and modern writing.
They say: "Devilish writing veers from straight horror to anarchic humour to the completely unexpected. Get to know the devil in literature."
Don't read these too late at night!
