Running from Demons (The Chronicles of Andor Series #2) by M.K. Theodoratus ~ Review by Liz Vrchota
Running from Demons by M.K. Theodoratus
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was my first time reading anything by M.K. Theodoratus and I was pretty impressed. I was in the mood for something with a paranormal twist given that it’s October and this promised some with its synopsis on Goodreads. I wasn’t as spooked as I would had hoped, but it was a really well plotted novel, with plenty of mystery and intrigue to keep one on their toes and ready for more. The details are really what make the novel though, kind of one of those where you can close your eyes and envision yourself in the room with the MC. The writing is flawless and detailed, I loved it.
Pillar Becon is a ‘null’, basically an outcast amongst others because she doesn’t’ have the magic that others around her do. This is just one layer to the story. Throw in several more like, trying to uncover her mother’s buried past, and a horrible demon named Grylerrque, and you have some pretty great reading material.
I wasn’t really aware till further along in the novel that this is actually a part two in a series, The Chronicles of Andor. It didn’t affect my ability to read this one. I do think I will go back and read the first, though. I most definitely will go on to read the third, “Rendezvous with Demons” Overall, a great four-star read that I couldn’t put down. I look forward to seeing what else is available from M.K. Theodoratus.
