Tabitha Tomala
Robin may have found her family’s grimoire, but there are still pages within Claude’s possession. Determined to find the lost pages and discover Claude’s goals, Robin and Zylas continue their hunt. But the closer they come to Claude, the more danger they will face. Claude has allied with powerful magic users who can directly combat Zylas’s demon magic. The pair will have to ramp up their teamwork and abilities to overcome this latest threat.
Robin and Zylas have come such a long way from two characters who could hardly see eye to eye. But while they’ve made great steps towards becoming a team, the danger is increasing the closer they get to Claude. With each new challenge, their lack of communication and trust shows. Robin and Zylas are equally stubborn and they’re going to learn some hard lessons when they find their separate abilities have little power.
The ramp up of romantic tension in the series has gradually built from book to book. And while it by no means takes over the plot, the character interactions are influenced by their feelings. The ability to work magic together is intricately tied into Robin and Zylas trusting each other with their innermost thoughts and feelings. The power balance between the two has always been unequal, yet if they can learn to communicate and sync with one another, they will make a dynamic team. And the tension between the two is just as exciting as the plot tension.
Each book in the Guild Codex: Demonized series improves on the last and the audiobooks bring such a wealth of emotion to the characters. The narrator does a fantastic job changing pitch and tone to reflect how the characters are feeling. Hunting Fiends for the Ill-Equipped is an action-packed fast-moving read. Urban fantasy readers need to visit the Guild Codex world.
