Commentary Concering Books The Devil's Day (After Such Knowledge #2-3)

6.0 stars. On my list of "All Time Favorite" novels. This omnibus is made up of Black Easter and The Day After Judgement (both of which earned 6.0 stars from me on there own). Together they make an incredibly entertaining and thought-provoking story of angels vs demons, God vs Satan vs Man and the true nature of good and evil. I absolutely loved this book. James Blish is highly under-rated. HIGHEST POSSIBLE RECOMMENDATION!!

Criticism Based On Books The Devil's Day (After Such Knowledge #2-3)

A detailed and thought-provoking account of what would happen if an arms manufacturer were to go to a black magician to see what would happen if demons were to be released into the world for one night and its aftermath.This version I read was a combination of Black Easter/The Day After Judgement and Mr. Blish's style of writing and craftmanship can be noticed all throughout. I was first introduced the Mr. Blish with his story, More Light, and I was extremely impressed then. Highly recommended.

literally awesome.



Extremely well-written but ultimately befuddling.

This book is actually two books. Neither is for the squeamish or the easily offended. "The Day After Judgement" contains some mild racial slurs toward Asians. And the underlying story is both blasphemous and sacrilegious. However, It's a well-written story, with a clear plot and well-developed characters. Expect to be alternately intrigued, amused (in a misanthropic way,) and finally left in an existential haze--wondering what happened and left to figure out the meaning for yourself.

This is actually my favorite depiction of how magic might work in the real world.

Three and a half stars. Black Easter was four, The Day After Judgment was three.
