Raven's Peak by Lincoln Cole, is the first book in the World On Fire series. Abigail Dressler, a demon hunter, is on a mission for the Council of Chaldea following a demon. Haatim Arison is a college graduate just wading through life at the moment. Abigail ends up saving Haatim from becoming a victim to the demon she is following. In the meantime, she discovers that his family is connected to her world, but Haatim knows nothing about it. She is then forced to protect him and bring him along on her next mission. This mission brings them to an old mining community hidden away in the woods of Tennessee. The mission was supposed to be something simple, ask questions and look around. What was waiting for them there was something no one could have expected. This demon was making the townspeople act crazy and manic. Haatim and Abigail need to save them and get rid of the demon before it was too late for them all.

I was captivated by this book right away! It was almost impossible for me to put it down. You can not help but be immersed in this book with the way it is written. The character development is very believable pertaining to Haatim. You go from someone lost and wandering to someone who found something worth taking on. The manic craze in the town is so well described that you can truly imagine what it looks like. I also love the way the author has set up for a following book. It leaves you wondering and questioning what is going to happen.

I do not know if the author intends to have more backstory about The Reverend, but I do wish that there would have been more in this book. What I did not like was how little information was given about the one particular demon, Abbadon. The way it is written, this demon seemed like it could be important later. There was so little information given though, I felt like I was missing something.

I would suggest this book to anyone interested in paranormal and adventure. Although, I did catch a couple of grammatical errors. For example in chapter 8, "With social media things like this should be impossible (to) keep hidden." Chapter 12, "In Kabbalic mythology he spread(s) paranoia and distrust."

I give this book a 3 out of 4 stars. I give it this rating because of the couple of grammatical errors I found. I cannot wait to read the following books. I very highly suggest this book and look forward to more.
