I'm pretty sure this is the first book I've read where the whole thing was written in the third person. And at times I didn't like it, but it was easy enough to get used to. I found about the first half of the book to be boring. Some things with Jael were being explained I guess, but nothing really happened. FINALLY things started to get interesting when her birthday comes around but not so much as to make me excited about the story. The ending was so anti-climatic that it left me thinking it was too easy a win. And while the very end left me with a bunch of questions, if there had been a second book, I wouldn't have been excited enough to find the answers out to read it. Two things in particular I wanted to know were: why did Dagon look like that? Would it have been so hard to tell us? We got flashbacks of when he was still all hansom and such, so it should have been easy to say why he looked like a fish now. And the other was how the heck does someone like Jack Frost become a demon? Really. One thing I did not understand was how Jael's mom (and uncle for that matter) were once Gods, but are now demons because that's what people made them into. How the heck does that happen? I found Jael's demon powers to be the coolest part of the book. I liked how she could influence the elements if they wanted to be, and how they all seemed to like her. Overall there were a few parts of the book that were enjoyable, but in general I feel it was a waste of time. But that's just me.
