In general, Karou has managed to keep her two lives in balance. One the one hand, she's a seventeen-year-old art student in Prague; one the other, errand-girl to a monstrous creature who is the closest thing she has to family. Raised half in our world, half in 'Elsewhere'. She has never understood Brimstone's dark work -- buying teeth from hunters and murderers -- nor how she came into his keeping. She is a secret even to herself, plagued by the sensation that she isn't whole.
This coming-of-age fantasy offering puts an original spin on the angel-versus-demon conflict that I really enjoyed -- to the extent that I'm in the process of tracking down the other two books in the trilogy. See my full review here.
