Flowers of the Demon Lord

Space pilot Milton Brown's journey takes a perilous turn when he touches down in the blistering desert of planet Pangolin, his ship laden with metric bananas - a curious cargo that fuels his addiction to a drug causing devastating amnesia. Amidst his struggles with a smoking habit and haunting depression, Milton's path crosses with Rashalika, the High Demonlord, who intriguingly sees potential in Milton for his mystical cult. As Milton is thrust into a fierce power struggle, he finds himself between Quesha, the ruthless High Demonlady, and Rashalika, who, despite his quest for dominance over the interplanetary portals, aspires to reach the ethical pinnacle of the garden of Sequa. Torn between affections for the sentient mechoid Karen, whose own mission to extract his rare DNA evolves into something tender, and the enchanting Demonlady Carmelia, wielding a hypnotic flute, Milton faces choices that transcend realms. As the narrative unfolds, Milton must navigate a labyrinth of love, loyalty, and identity - where the heart's direction is as mysterious as the stars themselves.
