Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Devil Dances is a trilogy of books written by French author Herve Jubert and later translated into English, about a world in the not too distant future where magic is fairly commonplace (though generally concealed from the general populace), while crime has practically been eliminated. The protaganists are Roberta Morgenstern, a Deadpan Snarker witch, and her handsome but dim partner Clement Martineau.In the first book Dance of the Assassins, the first murder in decades occurs in the Historic Cities, a sort of theme park for bored rich types where several historical eras have been recreated.In the sequel The Devil's Tango, a new killer is haunting the streets of Basle, namely the Baron of the Mists, a copycat killer who is murdering the descendants of old criminals. But more worryingly is this deluge being creating outside the city walls, and the upcoming elections...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The third book The Sabbat Samba was not released in English. The Devil's daughter has now been born and is being used by the satanic orders to summon the Devil Himself. | |

Cute Witch: Averted; Roberta is rather short and plump, and usually wears an electric girdle. | |

| The Devil Dances Trilogy / int_7bb844ec | comment |
Villain Decay: Fould goes from a cool schemer to a Butt-Monkey at the beginning of the third book, being put in charge of looking after (i.e. dressing and cleaning the baby Lilith) and is stuck to the bathroom ceiling by Morgernstern (and this is just in the first chapter.) | |
