Just about okay.

According to the Goodreads rating system, I would rate this 2.5/5 (where 2= it was okay and 3= I liked it).

I chose this book because I loved this author's debut series as a schoolgirl, and still as an adult. I downloaded the kindle sample and indeed that sample was promising, with a story I wanted to read and seemingly interesting characters.

The story has all the elements, but it doesn't deliver. The lead character is many centuries in age, and often seems to behave or think like a teenager. As the devil incarnate he still has to keep repeating that he is the devil incarnate for enemy characters to take him more seriously, which I found repetitive. 

The themes the author has tried to explore in the book are deep and heavy, but her inexperience when she wrote it shows through. This book could have been a 3.5 or 4 with good editing, which is what ultimately let it down. I won't be reading the sequel for the moment.
