Absolutely beautiful story. I don't run across these gems very often but when I do I'm touched by them. Ash and Tor were both flawed but the way that they completed each other was wonderful. A totally character driven book that could have taken place anywhere. Smooth, easy, emotional. It can be read as a solo or as part of the series as it was written. ( )

The book follows adventures of Ash and Tor in an Earth-like world. Ash is a demon who was turned into human to learn how to be one and hopefully correct his own mistakes that resulted in a disaster for this particular universe.

Tor was given to Ash by a higher being, a "Mother" to all, to guide and help him through the process.

As much as I liked this story, the writing was not all that solid, though not bad either. There were extra characters that felt more like ghosts, rather a solid presence. Loved the plot. Will definitely read book 2 if ever comes out :)

4 stars.

I really enjoyed this book after a while. I hope there will be a book for the continuing adventures of Ash, Tor and Carrick. There are too many questions left unanswered for my taste.
