"It's been four months since the night of gore, chaos, and the failed demonic summoning that revealed the Ting twins' unusual family background. Since then, Milly and Billy have tried to explore their new powers, but their parents, Ipo and Keon, haven't been much help. Despite the lack of explanations, one thing is abundantly clear: the Ting family is part of a much larger supernatural world and something in that world is very, very wrong. As Ipo and Keon are reluctantly drawn back into the treacherous high society of supernatural elites, their children find that dealings with the spirit world comes at a steep price-when the dead have unfinished business with the living, only blood can balance the scales. To save humanity and themselves, the Tings will have to embrace their inner demons"-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Thoughts: I really loved this a lot. The illustration is amazing and the story is complex and engaging.
Billy and Milly found out that they are not exactly human in the first volume of this series and now they are trying to cope with that. Unfortunately, their parents, Ipo and Keon, are not being helpful at all with explaining to them what is going on. So, Billy and Milly decide to take a break from their restaurant business and seek answers on their own. Answers which will lead them to trying to help vengeful ghosts and eventually to a secret cult that is threatening humanity as we know it.
The volume covers a lot of ground and does it very well. I loved watching the twins try to figure out their new powers and fumble around in this new supernatural world. It was also intriguing to watch Ipo and Keon visit demons from their past to try and figure out what was happening in the supernatural world. Things are going very wrong in the supernatural world and to protect the twins, Ipo and Keon, have to figure out why.
The story is complex but much easier to follow than the Monstress series. I feel like the story telling is more polished here. The illustration is amazing as well. There is a lot of detail and deep toned watercolors, it's gorgeous in a dark and sinister way.
This is intended for a mature audience. There is a lot of swearing and blood and gore.
My Summary (5/5): Overall I really enjoyed the continuation of The Night Eaters series. The story is complex and engaging and the illustration is beautiful. This volume covered so much ground and really moved at a good clip. I was impressed by the character-growth and story progress here and am eager to read the next volume in the series! ( )
