You'd think this story can't get crazier, faster, and more intense than it already was.
But guwss what - that's wrong.
Devi is already used to be human with both celestial and demonic marks, using the powers well to navigate the world full of demons, vampires, warlocks, and celestials - and more supernatural creatures, actually. But the threat she is facing now far exceeds her prior experience, and realizing there must be someone pulling the strings who orchestrates this devilish masterplan causes her headaches. The warlocks are at the edge of war with celestials, not really united; celestial guild is maybe at its weakest, with rogues coming out of shadows; arch-demons are scheming more apocalyptic scenarios than before; and Niko's brother is definitely a surprise, too..
Amazing, fast-pacing supernatural mystery thriller with more twists one can bear, twisting and turning at basically every page, so swiftly one should pay attention to all the dynamics in the story. Intense emotions, striking action scenes, and dangerous world connected with demon realms, that makes this book an awesome read. Not mentioning the characters - Devi with her badass attitude and sharp mind, unpredictable Niko and even more unpredictable Zadok, violent Javos, and mischievous plotting arch-demons. Oh, and the idiot Inspector is back.. I cannot help myself but laugh at him. His attitude and denial is simply... ridiculous.
Awesome read, full of tension and with great development, worth every minute spent reading.

Brilliant gutsy and a touch of romance.

I read this a little time after the others. It has not disappointed. Devi is a great heroine giving us all the emotions of an amazing human with great powers. The two marks on her wrists have not been used lightly but she always thinks how these will affect her long term. A great read, fast paced, some twists and of course a cliff hanger. Looking to the next book.

Another fast paced episode with more clashes between Devi, Celestrial knights, demons of all grades and warlocks.
Her friends and earth keeps her, so she doesn't take her eye off the ball. That's to keep earth demon free and her friends safe. It's a battle in different remains and against different arch-demons, including Nikolas' sire.
A very dramatic episode, now moving onto the last in this fantastic series.

Celestial experiences!!

Having read all four celestial books I am now eagerly awaiting the final book, I have read nearly all of Emma’s books and this series has got to be close to the best of them all.
I really enjoyed them all, thank you to Kindle and amazon for your recommendations, it is where I first found Emma’s changeling series. The rest is history!

A fantastic fantasy

I love this series and aside from Ivy, Devi is my favorite character from this author. All of these characters are great and the world she has built is excellent and entertaining. The whole story is awesome and you won’t be able to put this down.

Great series!

I am enjoying this series very much but I'm ready to pull my hair out waiting for the conclusion. For every answer you get more questions.

Loved it!

Enjoyed it from beginning to end! I love that the strong female lead is backed by a strong male lead. He doesn't try to hold her back. He just lets her do her thing!
