Review: The Death Skull - Cassiel Knight
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 06 11, 2014
I've read The Key of Solomon, and I loved that book, and wanted to read the sequel The Death Skull as well. I was not disappointed. Once again, Cassiel Knight has delivered an engaging  urban fantasy/paranormal romance/adventure book that hooked me from the very beginning and kept my interest to the very end. If there's a third book on the horizon, I know I want to read that one as well.Introduced in the first book, Marisol – who usually goes by Mari, is another Fallen angel (fire demon, to be accurate), but she's not seeking redemption, being content in the circumstances she's currently in. Despite that, when I came to the end of the book, I realized there was a lot more going on inside her, and we get glimpses of that periodically. She has her own fears that make her a compelling and complex character in my estimation, and she's one of my favorites in this series. It's not just that though. Much like Lexi in the first book, Mari has plenty of attitude and sarcasm to go around, and she's an awesome fighter too, and that was displayed at various times.Jackson, a character from the first book, is teamed up with her in this book. From the beginning, it is apparent that there is mutual attraction between the two, and I could sense the sparks between him and Mari. My favorite shape-shifting demon, Rocky, makes appearances in this book, and he's entertaining as always.Highly recommended for readers who enjoy strong female main characters, along with fans of urban fantasy/adventure/paranormal romance books. My rating is 5/5 platypires.
