Happy Friday, everybody! It's a beautiful day, and I'm in the middle of a beautiful book: "The Demon's Covenant," by Sarah Rees Brennan. It's the second of a planned trilogy, which began with The Demon's Lexicon, another book that I loved.
This one is told primarily through the eyes of the book's heroine, Mae. Mae is spunky, adventurous and loyal to a fault, and I'm very excited to revisit her and the other personalities in Brennan's world.
It's refeshing to witness the action through her eyes, since the last book was told by the emotionally stunted (and that's being generous) Nick. Of course, his outlook is completely justified, and the different style Brennan uses for Mae further displays the mastery she has of her characters, as well as the story. So if you're a fan of modern magic, pick these books up.
