“A thoughtful spin of faith and the nature of good and evil, Breaking the Devil's Heart is a strongly recommended pick for fantasy fiction collections.”

Midwest Book Review

“This novel epitomizes colourful writing and an equally colourful plot…
The writer has used his very potent imagination to put in perspective,
his own views about life, the afterlife and the heaven/hell realms…
More than just a story, this is philosophy in fiction form.”

"From kidnapping corporate demons and finding numerous ways to make them talk, to aligning themselves with gangster angels, Stewart and Layla travel between time to figure out the cause of evil and how it could be stopped and put Satan out of business for eternity. Breaking the Devil's Heart is certainly a book of its own kind.

“It will linger long in your thoughts and force you to look at life (and the afterlife) from a different perspective…  I must say the book is unique and something I have not read before… And I’m glad that I had the opportunity to read and review it. The whole concept was well thought through and the scenes in Hell were vividly told. Goodman really sets himself apart with the unique story and throwing most of the religious and political views out of the door, I somehow feel that this won’t be the last that we heard of Goodman. And finally… Hell as a corporate bureaucratic institution… brilliant.”

“It is a fiction story well told that is hard to put down once you start reading… It also proves that good has always prevailed over evil no matter the enormity of evil… Goodman delves into a Satan’s unknown thoughts in always looking for opportunity to trade on the human soul. ”

“To say that this book is one of a kind, is an understatement. Breaking The Devil’s Heart, is such a unique, imaginative and thought provoking premise for a story, that it is difficult to know where to start. There is definitely no formulaic or predictable storyline on offer here! For a fantasy enthusiast, be prepared to be blown away by this story and to have all your preconceived ideas about Heaven, Hell and the afterlife shattered.”

“Like a knife through butter, H.A Goodman holds the reader spell bound on an inspiring adventure. The book, Breaking The Devil's Heart is a must read for everyone irrespective of creed, colour or nationality.”

“What makes Breaking The Devil’s Heart so arresting is the uncanny manner the writer treats a topic so ethereal and yet so real. It simply tells a story that is inspired by the belief that whatever happens in the physical comes from the spiritual. There is never a dull moment in the novel. The characters are well developed, distinct and rounder… The novel, no doubt, is a groundbreaking work of a genius.”

PM News Nigeria

http://pmnewsnigeria.com/2013/04/05/h-a-goodman-releases-breaking-the-devils-heart/

“Goodman also probes meaty philosophical themes with sophistication, as his characters wrestle with the problem of evil and the blurry line separating right from wrong. Subversively, he suggests that evil may not be a demonic plot but just another name for human nature…  Goodman’s cross between a detective novel and The Screwtape Letters makes for a stimulating read. A smart, entertaining take on eternal conundrums.”

Kirkus Reviews

“So yes, this book is really original, I don’t think I can make any comparisons with other novels I've read before, but it was a great pleasure to discover the H.A. Goodman ideas. Indeed, the book makes us think about many points, what is right or wrong, and a lot of things according to that. It also shows the cruelty of people, the things they can do when they’re selfish or when they don't realize the impact of their acts on others. It's pretty amazing.”

“I love how the story unfolds and the pace keeps a steady level of action. And the storyline is one of the most unique ones out there! The idea that we are offered a formula to commit evil deeds is fascinating and the ins and outs of the whole operation of hell is treat to read about… The traveling and “flashbacks” of the characters was certainly a favorite aspect of mine… Definitely a novel to read if you like something different that makes you think.”

 “I didn't realize what I was getting into when I picked up Goodman's novel, Breaking the Devil's Heart...With an unconventional foundation, Breaking the Devil's Heart is unique and intriguing. I really liked the characters and thought that Goodman did an excellent job of testing Stewart and Layla's beliefs and love. The other characters are also well developed and really added depth to the good versus evil contemplation. Fast paced, at times witty and arcane, Breaking The Devil's Heart is a sensational, off-beat fantasy thriller that is well worth the read!”

“You could just take the book at face value and enjoy the fully-fleshed cast of characters, the dark comedy and the gloss of the plot. I liked the plain talking Layla, who tells it just as she sees it. And of course Franklin, the snobby British demon…  And the depiction of hell as a corporation with dodgy sales techniques and stultifying bureaucracy remains as fresh and as funny as ever…  Breaking the Devil's Heart has a fresh and interesting premise, a wide-ranging plot, some fantastic characters and provides plenty of pauses for thought.”

“… I thoroughly loved Breaking the Devil's Heart.  Yes, that's right. I loved this book. I don't normally rate books because it's hard for me to figure out just what number a book falls under. With this, though, I'd happily rate it a 5/5... Breaking the Devil's Heart is an intellectual, yet exhilarating, ride through the afterlife... Breaking the Devil's Heart is one of the most unique, exciting, and thought-provoking books I've read in awhile. It's equal parts action and heart and would be fabulous on the big screen. I highly recommend you dive into this world!”

“The idea that Hell is actually this huge, bureaucratic corporation was creatively constructed and thought-provoking. This idea was really brought to life by the world-building of this book, which was fantastic. From the actual offices of Hell to the dimensions created by Stewart and Layla's mind, I could really picture this twisted take on the afterlife.”

“This book is fascinating in so many ways, in particular in the way it makes you think... It’s also fascinating to see how this book examines the role of culture – and intolerance of other cultures – as the foundation of evil behind so much genocide... So this book has a huge amount of excellent, thoughtful positives. I would recommend buying and reading this book for that alone.”

“Breaking the Devils’ Heart is intriguing and you will find yourself debating the ideas behind this book if you are faithful to your religion. I found the idea that there are different faiths in Heaven interesting. The subject matter is also dark at times and really exposes the reality behind the ongoing war between Heaven and Hell for our very souls.”

“The best and most intriguing part about this book was easily the world building... This was just an incredibly thought provoking take on the idea of the afterlife and the idea of evil. Filled with looks back into some of the darker times of mankind’s past, Heavenly game shows, some morally grey heroes, and interesting plot twists all make up a somewhat philosophical take on the afterlife.”
