review 1: "Cabal rose and walked to the edge of the circle. “And what would you want?”The devil looked off into the middle distance in deep thought, her expression that of a child formulating a letter to Father Christmas. “Well,” she said after some moments of consideration, “I haven’t been summoned in a very long time, and I’m bored. Whatever you want me to do, it had better be interesting. Also, it would be lovely to kill a few people. So . . . yes, those are my demands: murder and fun.”Cabal looked up at the spider devil Zarenyia and crossed his arms. “Madam,” he said slowly, “I believe we may have a deal.”"This was a delight to read. The conversations between Cabal and Zarenyia kept me laughing.
review 2: So very pretty. Cabal is a sorcerer w
... moreho summons Zarenyia, a spider-devil with a sexual appetite and a sense of humor. They descend together into Hell to search for another sorcerer who objects to being found and has his sights set on Cabal. Along the way, Cabal and Zarenyia kinda fall in friendship. It's adorable. Excellent pacing and although the language is quite dapper and literary, it has this fun, dirty edge to it. less
