Spirit Clayborn makes an enemy of the cannibals when a magical sword aids him in finishing his opponent during an underground fight. He joined the fight to pay for his sister's leukemia treatment. The unfolding saga leaves Spirit as a fugitive with one arm.

Not all demons are bad as you see Demonarch wanted to work with humankind just to have peace both side but other Demons didn’t want .

There were moments of humor in the unpredictable plot. For instance, Dimitri always wore a tie, a dress shirt, and slacks. When in training, he carried seven identical outfits. If something was torn or dirty, he would change. In one scene, he took his tie off and folded it so it wouldn’t get dirty.
- I'm not a young adult but I do fancy fantasy stories with action once in a way. It appealed more when the review mentioned humor in the unpredictable plot. Thank you for a fantastic review.

The story sounds really interesting and my curiosity is already piqued to know what the demons will do to Demonarch Yaxus, as there seems to be a great disconnect in how the elderly one and his son are attempting to approach humanity. I am also curious about Taya, as it seems she is there not of her own volition. The book is already on my shelf.
Thanks for this comprehensive, meticulous review. :tiphat: :tiphat: :tiphat:

I'm not sure what to think of this, it's sounds interesting but 'busy' with an abundance of characters. I'm also not sure if the cannibal add is something that I would enjoy. I'll check it out and see how it goes. Thanks for a great review. Congrats on BOTD.

Will add it to my reading list. Congrats on BOTD!

This book's covers are doors to yet another new world. Spirit's name hints at a prophecy, the unfolding of which could just be as intriguing as promised in this review. Thank you.

It's commendable that Ian was still able to allow characters evoke emotions that readers can relate with, despite them having supernatural powers. Thanks for the review.
