Overview

*not for children under 15* In the ancient city of Rathberg, where aristocracy and arcane power rule behind veils of soot and civility, Millicent -a clever, cruel daughter of the Minister of Magic-performs a blood rite to summon her demon familiar. But the sacrifice is flawed, and the creature is not quite what she expected. The new clockwork machines of the Tech Ministry are interfering with the magical forces in which the city has long been awash, and like a steam engine with a stuck valve, disaster is imminent. Hunted by agents of the new regime, Millicent is forced into the city's decaying underworld of catacombs and forgotten gods, where the laws of power are older-and darker than any ministry. As Millicent seeks sanctuary and retribution, she uncovers secrets, relics of forbidden sorcery, and allies among the damned. In a ruined castle outside the city, she meticulously plans a diabolically epic revenge against all those who betrayed her and her family. Blending gothic atmosphere with dark wit and bloody violence, A Girl and Her Demon is a tale of ambition, betrayal, and vengeance, and shows how a girl's fury may be the most dangerous magic of all.
