The characters Luca and Suzann are likable and the villains appropriately villainous!
The story develops at a good pace and there is enough action and romance to keep a young reader engaged. The only comment I have is that I found there was just too many demons and descriptions of them early in the story – I found that a bit tedious at times.
I can see a future for a sequel.
