A knockout fantasy that combines the heart-stopping action of superhero comics and the creepy creatures of the best fantasy.
Fourteen-year-old Londoner, Charlie, thinks he's been given superpowers, but in fact he has been possessed by a demon. The adventure brings Charlie—as well as his friend, Jack, and Esme, a girl trained from birth to fight the demon—from the streets of London into Hell itself, as they prepare for a battle with ultimate stakes.

Sterling narration by John Lee yanks teen listeners immediately into this powerful story told by a young man who watches his best mate, Charlie, become overwhelmed and ultimately devoured by a nearly invincible demon. Once Jack realizes what's at stake, he and Esmé, a beautiful and talented girl raised to meet this challenge, must do all they can to save the world. Lee's voice fairly drips with evil and scorn when the demon speaks. Yet he also manages to imbue Jack with the halting confusion and awe a teenager would feel as he watches the tattoo-like demon slowly gain control over his friend. D.G.
