Four hours ago, they offered me training to hunt the things that killed my family: demons.
Two hours ago, I joined their secret organization—the CGE.
Now… All I have to do is survive demon-hunting school.
The classes won’t kill me, but the finals might.

Review:
First off, this was an excellently written book - it captured my attention right from the get go. It's one of those books that you pick up and read all through the night, unable to put it down just because you have to finish it, not just want to - but have to!
First off, this was an excellently written book - it captured my attention right from the get go. It's one of those books that you pick up and read all through the night, unable to put it down just because you want to finish it.
To start with, the plot was phenomenal. It wasn't what I would consider a traditional paranormal fantasy. Mostly because this is the first time that demons weren't just demons. In this book, there were thousands of different demons including vampires; which I though was unique. I've never thought of vampires as demons, bit honestly thinking about it, it makes sense.
The characters were also unique. Even though Peter and Tasha weren't in the story long, for what parts they were in, I liked them. I liked the relationships that Jade developed between Doc and Linc. I especially liked the her connection with Linc. It wasn't an instant, "I love you" scenario, which I believe is commonly represented in YA books. I saw it as more authentic and genuine. They retained a certain friendly-playful aspect that they had before their kiss. And even if Felecia was a complete jerk, I thought she was a well developed character - though I am happy to say that I am glad she was expelled from the school after leaving Jade to die (not once but twice).
This is one book that you won't want to miss out on reading.
Note: I received this book free from Lanie Jordan in exchange for an honest review.
