In this post-apocalyptic world Devi prefers living her life above ground traversing the desolate territory with her crew. Demons rule the earth during the day snatching souls out of the humans brave enough to go outdoors. Devi is a supplier to rogue communities. Her latest job turns out to be her most dangerous, costing her more than she ever imagined. Now she finds herself at the mercy of one seriously confounding half-blood demon.While most of the world prefers to live virtually Zel is just fine maneuvering the real world. As a half-blood demon it pains Zel to spend much time in virtual reality. He is the leader of a rogue community. His community has been under attack of late and he needs Devi to supply him with the means to protect his people. However, he never counted on Devi becoming such a distraction. One look at her and every protective, possessive instinct in him surfaces.As Devi and Zel circle each other danger strikes swiftly. They must join together to defend the people they love if they wish to survive the imminent war. Can love be found between a human and half-blood? Will they live long enough to find out?Hammer Down is freaking fabulous! This pulse-pounding thriller will have you on the edge of your seat and begging for more of this gritty story. Hammer Down takes the reader on an out of this world adventure. I am a huge fan of the duo that makes up Moira Rogers but I must say after reading the first book I wasn't certain I would fall in love with the Children of the Undying series. I was left feeling a little lost after Demon Bait but after reading Hammer Down I can say that I am utterly in love with this series. In Hammer Down we get a more defined view of what happened to bring the world to this point and there is one hell of a love story. The action is top notch and very intense. There are so many characters to fall in love with. I love it when I get to experience many emotions during a story and Hammer Down did not disappoint.Devi and Zel are an extremely passionate couple. I could feel the lust pouring off the pages of Hammer Down. I am drawn not only to this couple and the characters but the seriously cool world created by Moira Rogers as well. I have yet to read anything quite like this post-apocalyptic world. In this spine-chilling world demons fly out of the sky and take over bodies, it's freaky and enthralling. I love that there is all this chaos and then you have Devi and Zel, a fierce couple, trying to live and find love amongst it all. I felt as if I was running, fighting and falling in love right along with the characters, I absolutely love when that happens!! I will definitely be taking another trip into the world of the Children of the Undying.Reviewed by MirandaFor Joyfully Reviewed
