About this listen

The long-awaited ninth book in the Demon series returns to the adventures of Kara Gillian and the supernatural threats that surround her.

Kara’s drastic ceasefire deal with the formidable demon Imperator Dekkak slowed the attacks on Earth to a trickle, but her troubles are far from over. The godlike demahnk are desperate to return to their own kind, but unless they can stabilize the demon realm, they’ll be forever exiled—and they’ve subjugated Kara’s beloved Mzatal to further their hellacious cause. One faction of demonic lords and demahnk has a plan to fix their world, yet their salvation would come at the expense of Earth.

Meanwhile, Kara is wrestling with government bureaucracy, backstabbing allies, enemy lords, as well as the powerful young demonic lord Ashava, who’s packing the drama, angst, and rebellion of the terrible teen years into just a few months.

Kara’s in a race to stop an apocalypse, but in order to prevail she’ll have to make a terrible sacrifice or risk losing everything she holds dear.

Wrapping up the story nicely

Waited years for this one, definitely wraps everything up nicely. The story felt loose in some places, but it does good of wrapping every plot point up. As a fan of this series, 9/10

Very much worth the wait.

I am going to miss this series, but Diana Rowland does gift us with a very thoughtful and fulfilling end to this series. For those of us who have some trouble remembering all of the past events and characters, she includes a comprehensive recap as well as a glossary at the end.

Well worth the wait

What a fantastic wrap to this series. I’d nearly given up on it ever being finished.

So sad it's over!

I have loved the whole series, but the last book is by far the greatest! More battles, more comradery, more growth in so many supporting characters..and ALL the feels..laughter, joy, sorrow, and a few too many tears. I am just sad I won't get to visit this world in new stories. But I will always have them on my bookshelf for re-visiting this one, as well as all the others on the series.

Well worth the wait

What a epic ending to an epic series. It felt like I waited forever for this last book, but it did not disappoint. Every loose end and plot point was tied up in a cohesive manner that left me truly satisfied and pleased.

Long time coming, but well worth the wait.

Now this is how a finale should be. Not a haphazard & forced "let's tie up all the loose ends". But a true storyline that continues the series and nicely and naturally answered all the questions; we readers, who have so diligently followed the series want the answers to regarding our beloved characters. It was the total trifecta, it had mystery/suspense, action/adventure and romance. In other words I left the table well satisfied. Which is especially good since it's the end of the series.

cliché and predicable

I loved the beginning of this series. However, it all started to go down hill once Kara was no longer a detective and shit really jumped shark when the rifts opened. this last book was the worst. I was bored to tears bythe lack of mystery which was the one element that brought me to series to begin with. The ending was cliché and predictable unlike the ending in the first few books.
