The Demon World

De: Sally Green

Narrado por: Daniel Weyman, Pippa Bennett-Warner, FINLAY ROBERTSON, Charlie Anson, Yasmin Paige

The epic, magical saga of royalty, romance, and violence continues.

A princess. A soldier. A servant. A demon hunter. A thief. When we last saw them, this unlikely group was heading into the Northern Territory of the kingdom of Pitoria, on the run from the sadistic and power-hungry King Aloysius of Brigant. The Smoke Thieves have discovered that demon smoke is not only an illegal drug used for pleasure, but in fact, when taken by children, demon smoke briefly gives its users super-human strength. Aloysius' plan is simple and brutal: kill the demons for their smoke, and use that smoke to build an unstoppable army of children to take over Pitoria, Calidor, and then the rest of the world. The Smoke Thieves are the only ones who understand this plan--but can they stop it? Catherine, Aloysius' daughter, is seen as a traitor from all sides; Tash is heartbroken after the loss of her one friend and sees nothing left for her in the human world; Edyon is wanted for murder; March is carrying the secret of his betrayal of his new love; Ambrose is out for revenge--and all the while, the demons have plans of their own...

Still good, but has the same problems

This is a sequel to Demon Smoke. It rounds out the first story and explains something’s that were missing in the previous novel. It isn’t a standalone story and has some minor cliffhangers at the end, but no conclusion of any subplots or real end within this book. The characters are still good, but have little development outside of Catherine’s character.

Awesome

loved this ! it was action packed and at times had me on the edge of my seat.
the narrator's voice help so much with creating the characters mood and expressions

Great storytelling and narrators

Great storytelling and narrators. Some characters continually make terrible choices but that’s what makes it believable.

Homosexual Content

Historical romances in my world view do not include homosexualality. The first book eluded to it. The second book delved right into it with a drastic change in character and behavior of the illegitimate prince. He went from smi masculine to a complete and total pre Madonna snobish weak young man. If ound this series by searching on Google " Historical Romance series with out explicit sexual content". From what I read so far it hasn't necessarily been explicit, but certainly more than I am interested in reading. Oh how I wish books had ratings on them like movies and TV shows do that explain what kind of content to expect. Hopefully it's not too late to return this title and begin my search again.
