The Gate Guardian's Daughter by K.T. Munson

4.0

The Gate Guardian's Daughter is a great little prequel to what could be a fantastic series. In it, we see ten-year-old Elisabeth coming to terms with who she is, her powers, and the fact that she has to stay isolated for her own good. We're also introduced to characters such as Tiss the snake demon, Elisabeth's tutor Milo, the hellhounds Nathan and Duke, and Malthael, Elisabeth's demon father. The mini story arc hung together very nicely, with a twist or two towards the end.

The book also contains a preview of The Sixth Gate, which will be the first book in the main trilogy. This excerpt built on the prequel story, and I was especially taken with A.J., the sentient stardust. I'll certainly be giving The Sixth Gate a read when it comes out.
