Как известно, ни одно из канонических Евангелий не является аутентичным текстом. Есть мнение, что канонические Евангелия диктовались Богом. А как был рождён сын дьявола? Наивно предполагать, что антипод Господа, зная о рождении Сына Бога, не сделал бы тоже самое. В этой книге описано рождение сына дьявола на Земле – «Евангелие от сатаны». С помощью колдовских чар князь тьмы вступает с царицей Изидой в близкие отношения. Рождается дьяволенок. Жрец Унхатон и астролог Месхет пытаются убить сына сатаны. Дьяволу удается спасти своего наследника и вывезти его из Египта в Рим.
