Demon with a Code

Demon Rogue

Kalos Aeon is thousands of years old and a half-demon who just wants to keep living in the light. To help manage his more destructive nature he lives by a strict code. Don’t screw anyone over who doesn’t deserve it. Always complete the job you were paid to do. And never make a promise you can’t keep. As a magical retrieval expert he hunts down objects of power in exchange for a fee and half of the objects magical essence. I found the story unique and well worth reading. Kalos is an engaging character and you really want to see what he’s going to do next. With a secretive client, hostile police, an angry powerful ex and her demon lover on one side and the dark and light magical councils on the other Kalos is stuck between a rock and a hard place. It is going to take some out of the box thinking to keep to his code and not give in to his more destructive nature. I would like to have seen more world building. You don’t really get any back history on anyone and are only given snippets of information at points to explain who the characters are and how the magical world works. In spite of that the world is interesting and the story moves at a good pace. I really hope we get to learn more about the individual characters in future books. Especially the vampire best friend and Argos. An enjoyable read and a good addition to the genre. I look forward to the next book.
