What if Earth was not the only planet Jehovah cared about? What if humanity was not the only intelligent race that Jehovah had created? What if the war between angels and demons had a much more ancient history that spanned three universes and many billions of light years of space? The Lucifer's Fall trilogy of the Primal Patterns series is the story of the most celebrated demon warrior and king in history, and the birth of a moral and intellectual renaissance in the Chaos Universe. The first book, "Lucifer's Odyssey", traces the demon prince Lucifer from his imprisonment by Jehovah on Earth to the betrayal of his parents in Chaos and a shaky alliance with the Elven people. Filled with irreverent humor and fast paced action, Lucifer's Odyssey beckons you to take a journey through space and time into a story where elven technology meets the ruthlessness of the demon race and the potential of Jehovah's great creations. "Lucifer's Odyssey" is the first book of the Lucifer's Fall trilogy, and book one in the Primal Patterns series.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Lilac Wolf and Stuff Review
Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2011

When Rex asked me to read this book, the name Lucifer was enough for me. Come on, who doesn't love a great scary Satan novel?

So wrong. Rex has done something so unique I'm actually giddy as I write this. He took some spiritual names we are familiar with, characters even and put them in new roles and new places.

Lucifer is the crowned prince of Chaos, trapped on Earth. Remember the archangel Michael? He's Lucifer's twin brother. And Jehovah? He's Lucifer's cousin...a rule-breaking scholar who left the Chaos Primal to create Order. And I LOVE that Jehovah, kind of an arrogant tool, is married to Gaea. And yes, she is mother earth to his cool scientific God.

There are also Goblins Elves...they don't like to be called Goblins. They live in a 3rd Primal. The Elvin and Chaos primals were created by Archimedes. They can speak with him and also with the primals. Well in theory, in the book only the Chaos one speaks.

It's all so intense. There is magic, immortals, and really no holds barred on theories or physical laws.

Lucifer has to fight to win back the respect of the elves, to get back his rightful place on the throne, to save his kingdom and the elves. To stop not only Jehovah, but Eranos. And as much as a egotistical and evil as he seems in the beginning, you end up rooting for the demon. And yes, he is a demon, wings and all.

So get a copy, it's a fascinating and fun read!

4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Good Read
Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2020

I'm not sure when i downloaded this to my kindle but I am glad I did. This was such a different take on the old Lucifer and Jehovah story. This Lucifer is dfferent than most takes of the character that I've read, he's not a smooth talker or super persuasive. Has an anger issue, but he's not inherently evil. He has a twin, Jehovah is not exactly god, and definitely not the creator of the universe, nor is he Lucifer's father. I was intrigued enough to continue reading. There's demons, demon wizards, angels, and elves. There's political intrigue and some racism. A few references to different mythologies, but this seems like a universe all unto itself and a very interesting one. I intend to continue reading more into the series to see where it goes

5.0 out of 5 stars Not your Typical Paranormal Science Fiction
Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2016
Verified Purchase
Lucifer's Odyssey by Rex Jameson (book 1 in the Primal Patterns series) is definitely not your typical epic paranormal fantasy science fiction novel. It is also not likely to be appreciated by fundamentalist Christian Evangelicals lacking an open mind when it comes to such biblical characters as Lucifer, Jehovah, and Michael. Covering three parallel universes and hundreds of millions of years, this book combines supernatural creatures (demons, angels, and goblins/elves), a mixture of magic and advanced science, political intrigue, war, and cosmology to create an epic, action/adventure romp that will make you think while keeping you turning the pages. It's not every day you read a novel written from the demon Lucifer's point of view. I thoroughly enjoyed this well-written book and look forward to reading book two. So if you are interested in reading something more than the typical science fiction space opera, then you could do far worse than this first book in the primal patterns series.

3.0 out of 5 stars Strong premise, bogged scenes
Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2013

"A civil war rages across the heavens between Lucifer and Jehovah, but it's not the story you thought you knew..."

That statement found in the description is absolutely true. I was excited to see a unique perspective on that war between these religious figures. I was even relieved. And it's a premise that can stick, mind you. After the first shock of excitement I was left with very little to carry on. The author managed to paint such a majestic picture of our world in the beginning that boomeranged back at the chapters that followed.

Because after the initial plunge into the premise, which artfully and right away, everything slows down and the characters turn mundane.

Note to the author, for all that it's worth: There's one thing that would have helped the story move along better, and it should have been part of the concept (spoiler) from the scene with Eve and on. The Battle that rages on since the beginning of time (for us mortals) is fought *through* us. Even in the case of the premise as is decsribed in Lucifer's Odyssey, his cause/plan to leave (trying not to spill spoilers allover the place) would have been achieved better if the whole plot revolved around the minds of the mortals and not some GobTech.
That's my take.

Good read overall, with a couple weak points that prevented me from rating higher. Recommended to readers of christian fantasy with an open mind and a knack for space-scifi (yeah, I know, right? it's still Lucifer's story though!), or just people looking for something new in the fantasy genre.

5.0 out of 5 stars Epic Tale!
Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2012

Mr. Jameson has created an epic story with epic battles and epic characters the reader cares for. I've read books where the main characters are so large in the story it is difficult to develope any feelings toward them. Not so in this book. The author did a fantastic job of creating these differing worlds involving alternate universes and how the author inserted Lucifer and Jehovah--arch enemies--into the intricate plot lines was truly imaginative. This was a fast read and I must say--being a male--I wouldn't have minded one bit in being able to enjoy the beautiful "singuli" the way Lucifer and the other characters did. When you read the story, you will see what I mean. Crisp dialogue, descriptive prose and major conflicts between the immortals make LUCIFER'S ODYSSEY a fast fun read. This is an imaginative first book to the Primal Pattern series. And the writing is pretty dang good too!

5.0 out of 5 stars Something that will make you laugh, squirm and feel sorry for Lucifer. Far from my usual but I loved it.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 10, 2019
Verified Purchase
Lucifer and his legions are trapped on earth and his most faithful friends are disguised as a members of a bike gang until he is given a chance to leave but it costs him dearly and if he can't return to Chaos in time he will lose everything. This is far from my usual book style and stories. Like Blake Banners brilliant Cold Case Series and Omega Series. Dean Koontz, L.T. Ryan, Clive Cussler, Lee Child and the occasional autobiography. So reading Lucifer's Odyssey was a break from the norm for me and I can honestly say it was so good that I've bought the rest of the trilogy and am looking forward to reading them as soon as possible. I only hope they as funny and blood thirsty as Book 1 was.

4.0 out of 5 stars This is a great action packed adventure book
Reviewed in Australia on September 16, 2017

This is a great action packed adventure book. There were times where I was a little confused, for example understanding the Certabum game in the Colesium but I still enjoyed reading those parts. I really like Lucifer as a character and found that he developed and grew as the story progressed. I do not like Jehovah and found the more the story progressed the more I didn't like him. Many of the side characters such as Sariel, Batarel, Gaea and Elandril are all very likeable. I also liked how the story progresses. This is not a book you can read as a standalone, though it does wrap up quite nicely at the end. However, as it is the first in a trilogy, it is obvious that you need to read on to see where the story will eventually end and the final make up of each of the characters. I look forward to reading the second book.

bit of a different tail to the usual heaven hell stuff, found it quite refreshing there's a few places it drags a bit but it certainly had enough about it to keep me reading and liking the characters.
