This is a collection of shorts based upon a creation by Isaac Asimov about Azazel. It is based on George who calls upon the outside with an incantation that brings forth a demon known as Azazel. In his travels he comes across mysteries and adventure. His friends think him odd and often more than not, make fun of his stories. There are eighteen shorts all together in this collection, each with its unique flavor and comedy.

This book is good for anyone who wants something different. The different tales of the adventures of George and his demon Azazel. It has humor and mystery, even suspense at times. It is a wonderful collection to sit back and just relax with.

I especially liked that it was comedic in its approach. There is a lot Isaac Asimov writes that is very hardcore Science Fiction or Science thought. This collection took that comedic approach and made you part of it. Allowing you to want more of their adventures together.

I hoped for more stories. The collection is so catching I had read it straight through when I first got it.

This book made me feel wanting more of the story of Azazel and George. I felt good after reading it, as one does when reading a good piece of writing.

Isaac Asimov told a fantasy collection of stories in the best way he knows how. It was funny and enjoyable. He told the adventures in a way that made it seem as if they were a television show you were watching. A wonderful job on setting the background for the readers.

I recommend this book for anyone, even if you are not an Asimov fan. This is different from alot of his writing and I was thrilled once again to love one of his works. It is worth picking up and paging through these wonderful stories.
