O I love this series! It's just so different to everything else that's out there. This particular book is a prequel and is so disappointingly short! I wanted to just stay in this world and wallow in all the awesomeness that this author has brought to life! Don't misunderstand it's not bad in any way and actually helps fill in some blanks for fans of these books but I just didn't want it to end! Luckily there's a full length novel due out in a months time and I for one cannot wait.Ok I suppose I should actually say something about this book to give new readers an idea of what to expect. Set in an almost dystopian world that could be our future if technology goes to hell it's an almost Wild West setting but with the addition of demons and goddesses! I know it sounds preposterous but it's a fantasy world that's painted dark and gritty with paranormal elements and just pulls the reader in.In this story we meet Allia a goddess who is sent to charm The Demon Lord but finds herself equally captivated by him. It's a romance that should be forbidden and yet the couple cannot deny the intensity of their feelings and there's the rub! What Allia feels is love but The Demon Lord struggles to understand that emotion as all he has ever understood is possession. He's used to hunting but now he's found Allia he believes his hunt is over. Poor Allia is torn and pulled in separate directions but one thing she can never escape is her true feelings .This author has an amazing imagination and the writing style is so easy to follow. These are characters with layers and it's an almost nomadic world full of danger that they live in. In this short story the romance takes centre stage but the world building in these books is just outstanding . Would I recommend ? Most definitely and can I just say the artwork on these covers is fantastic! May cannot come soon enough for this reader!
