Demons of the Rich and Famous

(A Demon Whisperer Novel)

Tawny Stokes

During a year-long coma—literally spent in hell—seventeen-year-old Caden Butcher developed a special power. He can speak to demons in their own language. Awakening with this new ability, Caden takes over the family exorcism business and becomes known as the young whiz-kid exorcist to the stars, obtaining most of his work from Hollywood. But what others don't know is the exorcisms are all staged with the help of his best buddy, Dantalion, a demon he met in while he was in hell.

When an exorcism goes wrong, Caden discovers the demon inside a teen girl is not your normal malicious entity, but an adversary from down under who is hell-bent on Caden’s destruction because of what Caden did to him while in hell.

Now with the help of Dantalion and Caden’s girlfriend Aspen, a skilled necromancer, Caden must track down the rogue demon before he can expose Caden as a fraud and end his reign as the one and only Demon Whisperer.

MY REVIEW:

What a wonderful dark tale.  Caden Butcher is your normal teenage exorcist to the stars.  Working together with Dan, his demon and best friend they have a pretty good scam going on.  Caden knows how to preform real exorcisms but the stagged ones are just too easy and a good way to make a quick buck.  Someone has to support his dead beat alcoholic father.  Caden has it made until one demon ask for him by name.  After a blothced exorcism Caden discovers a demon has come from hell looking for him and it will not stop until he has been destroyed.  Caden, with the help of Dan and Aspen, his necromancer girlfriend and his father, will hunt down this demon and attempt to destroy it before it destroys him.

Wow!  I learned a lot from this book.  One of them being just what a necromancer is.  This is a fast paced, wonderful written book.  It grabs you from the very first chapter.  I read it in one day, it was that good!  I love the main charater Caden, he is so cocky and sure of himself but he really steps up to the plate when he need to.  He is loyal to his friends, even though most of them are demons.  He riskes everything to save the ones he loves.  There is some real character growth within this book.  It is not all serious though, there are plenty of laughs in this book as well.  The author has written a real winner with this book and I look forward to reading the next book in this series.

Tawny Stokes has always been a writer. From an early age, she’d spin tales of serial killers in love, vampires taking over the world, and sometimes about fluffy bunnies turned bunnicidal maniacs. An honour student in high school, with a penchant for math and English, you’d never know it by the foot high blue Mohawk and Doc Martens, which often got her into trouble. No longer a Mohawk wearer, Tawny still enjoys old school punk rock, trance, zombie movies, teen horror films, and fluffy bunnies. She lives in Canada with her fantastical daughter, two cats, and spends most of her time creating new stories for teens.

Tawny also writes adult paranormal/urban fantasy fiction under the name Vivi Anna, and is an aspiring screenwriter.
