This is probably the most interesting take on the 7 deadly sins that I’ve ever read. While this audiobook can be a little hard to follow at times, it essentially covers the story of Horace and how the 7 deadly sins, in the forms of women, help him get back on his feet. This book has dark themes, but it also has funny, heartwarming moments. It’s a real rollercoaster of emotions, and the perfect read for fans of urban fantasy.

I think my favorite part about the characterization of the deadly sins is that they weren’t “too out there.” They were relatable, and they were written well, sounding like the flaws of real people. Also, the ending caught me by surprise, but I won’t give any spoilers away.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

So basically this is a story of a man that's visited by the 7 deadly sins. But instead of them trying to kill him, they are working on trying to make it so that he's a better person. There is a LOT of sex in this book. That's about it. I really don't have that much more than that. It was an ok book. A quick read.

amazing story. very good sex scenes, some of them quite original, but also an interesting plot. I really liked the characters, very alive. I definitely recommend it.

"You should take it all."
A sort of coming of age for the late developing teenage male. An Inoffensive and timid Horace Cadmus (even the name gives clues that he must be a whimp) is fired from his job. About to leave quietly, a female voice prompts him to stand up for himself and, to his own surprise he does. The voice belonged to a beautiful woman named Superbia, who downloads the Evil Thought app. for him, gets him to sign a contract and sends him a token. A game of sorts, he is told. Over time, a further six woman introduce themselves, each with their own attributes, and come to live in his home. He has almost more sex than he can handle, is influenced to do things he would not otherwise have done and finally - well you'd have to read it but it's not too hard to figure out.

This could be a father good, erotic fantasy, something one might expect from horny, sex hungry teenagers, except for certain very distasteful aspects, one being essentially a rape of a co-worker orchestrated by one of the mysterious women, plus a later refusal to take no from his girlfriend, and the delight taken in first betraying a friend then having him beaten up and held down as Horace smashes up his workplace when the outraged erstwhile friend tries to take legal action.

On a purely technical aspect, the book is also badly in need of editing, with some near i comprehensible sentences such as "It was quite a feat of her, and sure she ate some of the breakfast" and the continued use of 'laying' instead of placing or lying, as in "promise of laying (her lips) on his manhood" - only chickens and other birds lay anything (eggs).

I am an admirer of George Saoulidis' work and it pains me to rate this book at only two stars. As an erotic introduction of the main protagonist to different types of sexual action, it was fun and the varied female characters were mostly colourful and enjoyable, but the undertones of the rightness of not maintaining any personal morality to fulfill a desire, was distasteful in the extreme.

This is a fairly strange book and it took a long time to get fully into its stride. I would say that I was 25% through the story before I felt really involved and interested in what was going to happen with the characters.

You have a very ordinary downtrodden Greek man living and working Athens who gets some help from a woman he doesn't know who then gets him to sign up to an app for his phone. He, of course, accepts the T&Cs without reading them and thus starts off a series of encounters that change his life.

The app involves 7 different women with characteristics that are meant to align with the 7 deadly sins, but they are all positive ladies who embody differing types not merely conventional beauty.

The book is a slow burn with no real drama but it makes for an entertaining and thought provoking read.

I have questions

The book is good but but felt unfinished. The one question I wanted answered most wasn't answered. I mean it was kind of answered but not the explanation I wanted. So boo hoo I didn't get the answer I wanted. Still good book I would recommend.

Not the way I was expecting the book to end

This was a good book. I enjoyed getting to know the protagonist, and his 'women troubles'. I just expected a different ending from the first couple of chapters.

Different but enjoyable

The title threw me off I was expecting something different than I read. Would recommend for those not heavily in to gaming or harem novels, it has aspects of both but isn't so embedded that the casual reader wouldn't enjoy

This book had me turning the pages wanting to know more. I couldn't put it down. I read it in a matter of hours. I've never read anything like this before and I really enjoyed it. The end left me wanting more.

This book was unlike anything I've read. It was interesting in all the best ways. Definitely from a male perspective, but even the aspects I wasn't fond of still made sense for the character. I even found myself being encouraged by the roommates. A great quick read!

I just don't know....

I really liked the first 80% of this book but the ending really confused me. It was a little upsetting and honestly left almost all of my questions unanswered.
