Rise of the Demon

With both human and demon worlds on the verge of collapse, humans, demons, and lords (human-demon hybrids) must forge an unlikely alliance in Rowland’s explosive final Kara Gillian urban fantasy (after Legacy of the Demon). Fresh off of negotiating a cease-fire with the demon Dekkak, Kara and her team at the compound barely have a chance to breathe before their next big threat literally shows up at their front door. The demon Jesral comes knocking with his own army in tow and Mzatal, the love of Kara’s life, under mind-control. As his own world is dying, Jesral plans to take over Earth—and he’s hitting the compound first. Should Jesral succeed, it would mean the return to Earth of the Ekiri, “a noncorporeal, immortal race of telepathic beings.” Now all must pick sides in the series’s greatest showdown yet. Rowland packs in the action and surprises on the way to an ending that does the series proud. Fans are in for a powerful, fulfilling finale. [em]Agent: Matt Bialer, Sanford J. Greenburger Assoc.
