The Lucifer Journals: The Beginning of All Problems by Marc Finks
All Lucifer wanted to do was help one hungry little girl learn how to plant seeds.
He really should have known better.
What started as a simple agricultural lesson accidentally creates human civilization—and all its problems. Watch our interdimensional observer’s well-meaning suggestions transform peaceful hunter-gatherers into property-owning, wall-building farmers with a talent for weaponizing every helpful hint.
As paradise transforms into something far more complicated, Lucifer—now eternally exiled on Earth—realizes humans possess an uncanny ability to turn any knowledge into a weapon and any advice into disaster.
“The Beginning of All Problems” reveals how feeding a hungry child results in warfare, social inequality, and transforms Lucifer into the villain of humanity’s oldest stories.
Perfect for fans of Good Omens and anyone who’s wondered why humans can’t have nice things.

I’m a teacher, father, and storyteller fascinated by how big ideas shape little moments (and vice versa!). My work spans from whimsical children’s tales to tongue-in-cheek historical parodies—always with a spark of adventure.

For Adventure Lovers of All Ages: My comedic passion project The Lucifer Journals, a 70-volume saga in which a well-meaning cosmic observer (a.k.a.

Each volume reimagines how human history might unfold if one well-intentioned meddler just couldn’t keep his hands off the timeline.
