I just love Larissa Ione’s Demonica series. Revenant is Reaver’s twin, separated from him at birth, but raised in hell instead of heaven. This one was really great not only because we continued in the angels world, but because we got to explore the tortured brothers relationship theme as they were split at birth, one sent to heaven, and one to hell, which has turned Revenant into something of a bad boy.

Blasphemy is an interesting character as well, a part-angel who has been hiding out for years under the protection of her mother and working as a doctor at UG. They have some steamy chemistry! Adding to everyone’s troubles is the fact that Satan has gotten a fallen angel to try to reincarnate his murdered son Lucifer by carrying him to term as a full-grown baby/man, which would obviously be bad for the forces of good. Much interesting development and world-building as always, although my very favorite part was seeing bitter, angry Revenant discover if maybe he could have people who cared about him after all.
