Great debut to a new series about a teenage demion girl (half demon, half human) virtually split into 2 separate identities (in one body). The human identity, Liora, is only aware during daylight hours, while Lucky, the demon half owns the night.
King has set half the story in a human high school (Lioras daylight) and Luckys story unfolds in Dryndara, a land of permanent night with 3 moons. Both settings are becoming more distinct and fully-formed as the action progresses.
The story revolves around Luckys search for the demons that killed her friends and caused her personality-split but King includes the usual problems confronting teenage girls: how to talk to the cute new boy, boring classes, mean girls, and troubled friends. And with the cute new boy also being a demon himself and able to travel between the human and the demon worlds, we get to see how each half of our heroine handles herself around him.
Just an all-around delightful story that I look forward to reading more about in upcoming sequels!
