The Demon King by Cinda Williams Chima


SYNOPSIS:  This is a story following three different characters:  Han Alister, the street thief trying to change his life, Raisa Ana' Marianna, the heir to the the throne, and Amon Byrne, her guard and friend.   As the Queendom shows signs of war, the three characters discover secrets about their pasts, and try to do what is best for their people.

AUNT SHARON'S TAKE:  Although I sometimes like viewing the story from different points of view, it was a little confusing in this book, because the stories are so intricate and complicated.  However, I did enjoy the story and the characters in the book.  Content-wise, it was OK, although there was some violence and sensuality.

RATING:  PG13 for Sensuality and Violence

AUDIENCE:  Teens and Young Adults

STARS:  3
