It is good that the book skillfully blends elements of martial arts, mysticism, and concepts from Christianity, Zoroastrianism, and Islam, without being preachy.

"The Stylite" by Shane Hallawa is an interesting mix of action, adventure, and fantasy intended primarily for young adult readers. The main character is Teresa Amadei, who is trying to cope with the loss of her mother and conflicts in the family.

This sounds like a book I could get into! You said the language of the Daemoklos were in English, the book would be less bulky. Are they saying it in the language them translating in English? That would be the only turn off point for me unless it adds to the intensity and meaning of the dialogue

Just the outfits on the characters in the cover art caught my attention; they are very stylish and give the impression they are strong and ready to handle anything. Demon hunting sounds like an intense adventure. Thanks for the review!

This type of ficiton isn't my cup of tea, but I appreciate when an author can blend multiple divergent concepts into a single work, which it appears is the case with this novel. I suspect that readers of this genre will truly appreciate this great story. BTW, great cover!

This book looks like self discovering journey of young women through different perspectives, principles and values from different religions. With briefing the concepts and giving firm foundation to the story helps understanding better and as review says, the author did well in that department.
