Free from small publisher, Pigeon Park Press,
Clovenhoof by Heide Goody and Iain Grant.
Quote:
Charged with gross incompetence, Satan is fired from his job as Prince of Hell and exiled to that most terrible of places: English suburbia. Forced to live as a human under the name of Jeremy Clovenhoof, the dark lord not only has to contend with the fact that no one recognises him or gives him the credit he deserves but also has to put up with the bookish wargamer next door and the voracious man-eater upstairs.
Heaven, Hell and the city of Birmingham collide in a story that features murder, heavy metal, cannibalism, armed robbers, devious old ladies, Satanists who live with their mums, gentlemen of limited stature, dead vicars, petty archangels, flamethrowers, sex dolls, a blood-soaked school assembly and way too much alcohol.
Clovenhoof is outrageous and irreverent (and laugh out loud funny!) but it is also filled with huge warmth and humanity. Written by first-time collaborators Heide Goody and Iain Grant, Clovenhoof will have you rooting for the bad guy like never before.

I read some of the sample and it looks pretty funny.
The sequels are being given away for free at the publisher's website in Mobi or Epub formats if you send them an email:

Two volumes - Clovenhoof's Shed and Clovenhoof Goes To Night School - are available on Amazon right now.
Amazon's pricing policy prevents us giving the volumes (running to over 200 pages apiece) for free. You can pick them up for a ridiculously low price nonetheless.
However, since we DO want you have these stories for free, if you mail us at FreeBooks@pigeonparkpress.com we will send you both stories (in either .epub or .mobi format) by return mail which you can then copy onto your e-reader device.

Clovenhoof Goes to Night School
Quote:
|
Three friends, three different reasons for signing up for evening classes. Will Ben find that instead of a peaceful new hobby he’s stumbled into eye-watering levels of embarrassment? Will Nerys insist that she knows better than any of the tutors? Will Clovenhoof find a new playground for his unique brand of chaos? When Satan is your neighbour, every day is an education.

Clovenhoof's Shed
Quote:
|
The three friends each have a vision of how a shed in the garden might improve their lives. Those visions are not necessarily the same, but the person who’s wielding the power tools has the final say, don’t they? When Satan indulges in a little Do-It-Yourself, he’ll get ambitious, he’ll get angry, but first of all, he’ll get blind drunk.
