Taming Demons for Beginners by Annette Marie
4.0

Hello demon!

This is a fantastic first book in the spin-off series. I listened to it on audiobook and it was great, face-paced, full of action, banter, and great characters.

I really enjoyed that Robin isn't a badass straight off the bat, she kinda gave me Valma vibes. Zylas, the demon, is by far my favourite character, he is a great blend of blood thirsty, arrogant, curious, stoic and very observant. I loved how his character was introduced and the way in which Robin and he ended up bound together. The banter throughout was fantastic and so funny almost dorky in the way they bicker with each other. I am super keen to see where this goes, romance doesn't seem to be prominent in Annette's books, at least not in the ones I have read so far, but part of me hopes this will end up being a slow burn to something.

If you love urban fantasy, magic battles, demons and great banter, then definitely give this a read. (warning, it is meant to be read after some of the books in the original series The Guilded Codex: Spellbound.)
