5 Stars. Spoiler-free review.First, some background. The first novel in The Devil's series, The Devil's Metal, is one of my favorites of the many novels written by Karina Halle. It is a creepy, terrifying story about a music journalist named Dawn Emerson who travels on tour with the 1970's era rock band Hybrid. It is also the story of Sage Knightly, and the deal he made with the Devil. Since finishing that novel, I have been patiently anticipating the follow-up novel, The Devil’s Reprise.In The Devil's Reprise, Sage has embarked on his solo European tour, and Dawn is now coming to terms with a deal, unbeknownst to her, that she had made with the Devil. Each time I read a new novel written by Karina Halle, I am overwhelmed by her amazing writing expertise. She is extremely creative in her storytelling. The Devil’s Reprise is another brilliant novel, full of super-scary and sexy dialogue. Karina Halle relies on her experience from her own career as a music journalist which makes for a very authentic feel to the story. I could almost imagine being with Dawn when she describes different aspects of the concerts on tour and Sage’s presence on stage. The paranormal situations that Dawn finds herself involved in with demons are highly imaginative and fraught with terror. Karina Halle is exceptional at writing scary tales. If you are up for a hair-raising, spine-tingling story, look no further than The Devil’s Reprise. Not only did this novel meet my expectations, but I was absolutely thrilled with it!
