The Demon and the Light
by Axie Oh
Thank you to Macmillan Children’s Publishing group, Feiwel & Friends, and NetGalley for the ebook ARC!
It’s official, this duology has my whole heart. (And the cover art is just as phenomenal as the art for The Floating World!) I could have easily finished this book in two days, but I didn’t want it to end! The Demon and the Light picks up right after the ending of The Floating World, with Ren determined to find Sunho after their abrupt separation. It’s fast-paced, emotional, full of action, and fun to read.
I adored all of the core characters in this series. Ren, Sunho, Jaeil, Yurhee, Tag, and Wook have such an amusing found family dynamic. I wish we could have spent more of them as a group! I really liked Jaeil’s POV chapters, he had great character development. His mini romance side plot was adorable and I would gladly read a spinoff exploring that more!
Ren and Sunho continue to be an adorable pair, willing to do whatever it takes to keep each other safe. They both have their own challenges and trials that take precedence over their romance, but it makes sense considering the threats in play.
I would have loved for this book to be a bit longer. The final battles for Ren and Sunho felt like they ended quickly considering the build up to those events. I also would have enjoyed more details of the aftermath, ex. how their society reacted and adjusted to the state of the floating world. Maybe that’s just me wanting more because I love this duology so much.
