Wow that was intense with a totally new twist on demon possession. Jayne (Zha-nay) is a misplaced woman. She is estranged from her family, totally broke and a college drop-out who comes into serious cash and trouble when her uncle mysteriously dies. This is a coming of age novel. Jayne has powers she is unaware of that simply manifest when she is in trouble. The plot is the usual, serious bad-ass out to kill heroine, heroine has friends who can help, someone gets seriously injured, pissed-off heroine ups the ante and starts taking scalps. The difference is that Jayne has stepped into something that takes the reader a while to get hold of. The scenario is complex and the scientific reasonings are valid but hard to understand. I really loved Ex (Xavier) and Midian...what great characters. Jayne has created a terrific group of warriors and the next adventure aught to be as exciting and interesting as this one. What a great start to the Black Sun's Daughter series!
