Meira was the younger sister who was overshadowed by Syd's constant dramas that always took centre stage until now. I really loved reading about the Hayle Family Coven and this sidestep into the world of Demonicon kept me turning the pages. Meems is struggling to maintain control of her throne and with her grandfather trying to undermine her authority and her grandmother's constant meddling, She is feeling overwhelmed. Funny how younger siblings tend to feel they have to live up to their older sisters or brothers who they perceive to be perfect yet being an older sister the harsh reality is that you feel responsible for them and are always trying to protect those you love. I enjoyed the exploration of Syd and Meira's complex relationship and the events that transpired to get them to their new understanding towards each other. Throw in some sorcery, dragons and love gone wrong and you have the start of a great new series. Fast paced and twists at every turn, her books will entertain you every time. I would recommend this author to younger readers as there is no swearing or sexual escapades to distract you from the story.
