Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se irá gostar deste livro. Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. I liked this book so much more than I thought it would! I have a particularly hard time getting into YA Fantasy, but the story and the characters definitely kept my attention. And I particularly enjoyed the concept of using people as vessels for Gods and demons. Action-packed and moved quickly. Hints of romance but it wasn't fully developed (guessing it will be in later books). Sandis and Rone are both flawed, but relatable characters. And I also liked reading about Ireth! Definitely a page-turner and quick read, but ends on a cliffhanger. Will definitely be checking out book #2! Sandis is the vessel for a demon, slave to a summoner. At the outset, Sandis has resolved to escape - but her plan is hazy and she almost immediately connects with Rone who is no one's idea of a hero-rescuer. Still, Sandis brings out hidden honor in Rone and as the story progresses, she even learns to use her power as a vessel to keep herself out of the hands of her pursuers. Looking forward to the next book in the series. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

"As a human vessel for an ancient spirit, Sandis lives no ordinary life. At the command of her master, she can be transformed against her will into his weapon--a raging monster summoned to do his bidding. Unlike other vessels, Sandis can host extremely powerful spirits, but hosting such creatures can be fatal. To stay alive, she must run. And in a city fueled by smoke and corruption, she finds a surprising ally. A cunning thief for hire, Rone owns a rare device that grants him immortality for one minute every day--a unique advantage that will come in handy in Sandis's fight for freedom. But Sandis's master knows how powerful she is. He's determined to get her back, and he has the manpower to find her, wherever she runs. Now, to outwit her pursuers, Sandis must put all her trust in Rone and his immortal device. For her master has summoned more than mere men to hunt her down..."--Jacket flap.

Other than that, this was a good story and Holmberg remains on my auto-buy list.
I will re-review once the series is done. I'm too bothered by that cliffhanger to give this book the praise it deserves. ( )
