Paradise Regained

Meanwhile Satan overheard the declaration that Jesus was the son of God. After meeting with his followers Satan decides that he will corrupt Jesus just as he corrupted Adam and Eve. Excited to hurt God once again Satan accompanies Jesus to the desert. As Satan disguises himself and attempts to tempt Jesus with food power and vanity he tries to appeal to the vehement nature of human hunger. Through promises of power and appeals to Jesus' ego Satan is relentless. However as Jesus deflects and rebukes Satan's attempts the fallen angel realizes that Jesus will be much more difficult to ruin than Adam and Eve-but that doesn't mean Satan will give up.<p>Separated into four books <i>Paradise Regained</i> follows a biblical story from the gospel of Luke and reimagines the interaction dialogue and results of Jesus and Satan's time in the desert with a new perspective.
