This is the prequel, to the series that's about Shade, the shadow demon. I would probably say you should read Book 5 first, because you are finally introduced to some of these characters that will make more sense after book 5. But you could read it by itself with no trouble.I always knew that there was something going on with Shade. He had to have some kind of crazy past. And now I know. And now my mind is blown! I now know exactly why he pushed Val away, though I still blame him for being stupid, as he's probably going to lose Val for that stupidity. But now it all makes much more sense. He's 16 in this story, so though he's old enough to know better, he's also a teenage BOY. In the present story, he's no longer in his teen years. He also has a real name, which is not Shade. He also has a family.His world is blown up when he makes a bad decision and loses his cool. He then understands exactly why he can't have emotional reactions. Ever. It's quite an emotional story for a short story. Wow. I was not expecting this, what happened. All I can say is that if you are a fan of the Demon Underground series, you MUST read this one. You will be amazed, and you will have that open mouthed shocked reaction that I did.
