Quick recap

Five stories. In "The Body Politic", Charlie George's hands start acting on their own and plot a revolt against his body. "The Inhuman Condition" opens with a vagrant attacked by a gang; one of the attackers takes a knotted string, and each knot he undoes frees a demon. "Revelations" brings a preacher, his wife and his assistant to a motel near Pampa, Texas, where the ghosts of an earlier couple return. "Down, Satan!", six pages long, follows a rich man who builds a hell on Earth to lure the Devil. And "The Age of Desire" is about a test subject who escapes a secret lab.
