Delivering Evil for Experts - Book Review

 

Delivering Evil for Experts (The Guild Codex: Demonized #4)
by Annette Marie

What is it about:
I promised to avenge my parents.

But their killer is still on the loose, and he's stolen more than my parents' lives. Now, as he draws closer to his mysterious goals, he's poised to destroy what little I have left.

I promised to translate an ancient grimoire.

But it holds the secrets of my family—and the secret history of demon summoning. I fear its answers as much as I need them. Who was the foremother of Demonica…and who am I?

I promised to send my demon home.

But the way he watches me, the way he protects me, the way he touches me⁠—how can I cast him away forever? I swore I would do this for him, but can I? Should I?

But I promised—and I will keep my promises even if they cost me my heart, my soul, and my life.

What did I think of it:
This is a nice conclusion to this four book series.

It might be that I'm more in the mood for playing games at the moment, but this book felt a bit bloated. It seemed that some things could have been condensed or left out. I skimmed some fight scenes I'll confess. If you read the Spellbound series it also rehashes some scenes from that series.

That aside, there's lots of goodness in this book as well. I loved seeing Robin finally admitting to herself and others what Zylas means to her. But as they finally get closer the moment where Zylas has to return to his own world draws near. I was rooting for them to find a better solution.

All in all a fun book and series. I might read more books by Annette Marie if I'm in the mood for a fun Urban Fantasy read.

Why should you read it:
It's a very entertaining UF read.
