I'm trying to find out the title and author of a book that I once read (in the 1980s, I think) and would like to read again but I don't remember what it was called or who wrote it. I feel sure that someone out there will know what it is.
It's a horror book about a young girl who learns to read Latin, finds an old second-hand book (written in Latin) and persuades her mother to buy it for her. She follows the instructions in the book and summons a demon. The demon grants wishes and, over the years, she uses this to achieve her darkest desires: IE she wants a specific man to love her and the demon makes it happen but warns her that she has to keep the man within a certain range of her or else the spell will wear off. After she's had this man for a while, she starts to believe that he really loves her and lets him travel away from her. He then goes back to his former girlfriend - horrified at what he's been doing. The next wish she makes to the demon involves the man dying but the demon says that there are worse things than death and she ends up wishing that the man lives a very long life but without his penis. Sure enough, he goes off to one of the world wars (I forget which one) and comes home to his girlfriend having suffered a 'war wound'; needless to say the wedding's off!
She carries on this way, for decades, building a harem of male and female sex slaves, until she suffers a stroke. She gets the demon to 'fix' it and wakes up in the body of her much younger female lover, while the unfortunate lover gets her old, worn out body.
That's all I can remember, I really hope that I've put this out in the right place (sorry to have bothered you all, if not).

I'm afraid I can't give you any help on finding this book, but it sounds great! Now I want to read it too; hopefully somebody else knows something about it. Good luck!

Can you remember anything about the cover? was it a hardback or paperback?
