The Devil's Own Piss and Other Stories is a rollicking collection of thirty-odd stories full of devilish doings, Whiskey'd up mythology, crackpot history, and an abundance of altered-reality mayhem. Lucifestus the eponymous devil, is a hard-drinking, compulsive-gambling, square-deal-making, black-horned devil. He hangs out in bars, at racetracks, boutique sausage producers, and has been known to haggle during a martyrdom. There are the Trope Brothers, killer bees, ballpark organists, post-apocalyptic hijinks, marooned space aliens, hard-boiled detectives, ambitious Scandinavians, and more than one remarkable chicken. Jesus! Yep, he's in there too.

To capture the dark, satirical, but ultimately good-natured humorous tone of each of the short stories within the book, the cover design renders Lucifestus the devil from the eponymous story, The Devil's Own Piss and Other Stories, sitting at his regular bar lighting up a cigarette as a pulp-style 3D illustration. Aptly described by the author's tattoo artist "a cross between a Coop devil and Hellboy", Lucifestus' crimson skin, barrel chest and black bull horns are on full display. Also a recurring character, everyone's favorite bartender, Chloe, is seen tending to him. While she's sexy and confident, she is no damsel in distress and will give as good as she gets.
