I am a huge fan of Julie Kagawa especially her fae stories and she did an amazing job with the talon dragon shifting stories that i knew i needed to read her latest endeavor. I was not disappointed in the least. This in a intricately woven story that is based heavily on JAPANESE mythology so ya might be intrigued enough to go read about all the different demons we encounter in the story. I was hooked from the first chapter and the different ways all the characters are woven and what you think you know is not entirely what is going on in the story. Our main characters really grow from where they start at the beginning of the story and i am quite eager to see how this all plays out over the next few books.
