Reviewed By Heather Slocumb
Teenage angst has been studied for years. Numerous experts, from
psychologists to nutritionists to behavioral analysts, have attempted to isolate the
true causes behind the proclivities of postpubescents, often citing such wellknown
factors as hormone changes and peer pressure. What many of the so-called
“experts” fail to realize, though, is that the true nature of teens’ problems most
likely lies quite a bit deeper beneath the surface…
In All Of Satan’s Men, Shane Hoffman sheds invaluable insight on such
nature, providing the reader with an unfiltered, straight-ahead look into the
struggles of a soul in daily flux. The autobiographical account spans a 5-year
period of Hoffman’s life during which he wrests with depression, familial drama,
teenage love, and the deaths of loved ones. Each chapter is written as an entry in
a personal journal, on which Hoffman relies as an outlet for the difficulties that
continue to compound in his daily life. By recording his thoughts & feelings in
such a way, Hoffman captures his ongoing internal conflict within the framework
of humanity at its most personal, which facilitates the reader’s ability to relate,
based on his/her own personal experiences.
Most impressive about Hoffman’s musings is the fact that he often utilizes
song lyrics and poetry to express his innermost turmoil and pain, and he does so
with a polished maturity that is rare for someone of such a young age. Witness, for
example, this passage from the poem entitled “Life”:
"Here I go I just began
Build me up so I can fall again
Feels like I’m being cut with a knife
Here we are, this is Life
Hoping God will help me see the light
Please Jesus get me through another night
I feel my life slipping away
I wander [sic] if I’ll see another day"
Written at the entry point of Hoffman’s slow descent into depression &
confusion, such sentiments laconically convey the essence of a powerful personal
struggle that defines the daily existence of dozens of everyday souls.
Throughout his battles with intensely personal demons, though, Hoffman
repeatedly seeks the guidance and protection of God, acknowledging his own
weakness at the same time that he petitions for the strength that he needs to
endure. The importance of this act cannot be underscored enough, and it provides
Hoffman’s tale with the spiritual substance it needs in order to make an indelible
impression on the reader: though it may be titled All Of Satan’s Men, at the heart
of Hoffman’s story is the ultimate triumph of the human spirit over the legions of
evil that plague it without respite – and such triumph is never possible without the
necessary spiritual “boost” that lends us all the ultimate advantage in the perpetual
war between good and evil.
All Of Satan’s Men is a refreshing, empowering read. Composed by a
seasoned spiritual solider, Hoffman’s gripping account serves as inspiring
testimony to the true power of humility and conviction in the face of seemingly
insurmountable odds. His narrative should be required reading among church
youth groups, as well as featured prominently in high school guidance offices and
teenage crisis centers worldwide
