Publisher Description

Cinda Williams Chima won accolades for her New York Times best-selling Heir trilogy. The first of a new young adult trilogy, The Demon King features a former thief, Han, who's trying to provide for his mother and sister. One day Han, who sports mysterious (and certainly magical) silver cuffs on his wrists, confronts wizards setting fire to a sacred mountain. Now possessing one of the wizards' amulets, Han faces more trouble than he ever could have imagined.

"Not bad at all, I enjoyed the book, but was expecting more action.... I expect, that probably happens in the 2nd book of the series.... Great world building, likeable and downright unlikeable characters, great writing style. I won't rush out to get the next book, but will definately read it some day . I'm curious to find out what happens...and as I mentioned earlier, I expect the second book will have more action considering how this story ends."

    " It was a bit hard to get into at first but im glad I continued reading. This story is way better than I could've imagined. Chapter 24 had me on edge. The story is about Raisa and Han and their paths cross but only for a couple of chapters, so that was a bummer because I wanted more of the two interacting with each other. I really can't wait to start reading The Exiled Queen. "

    " The book went by fast and I was well intrigued but did not really enjoy the story line nor did I like the character jumping. One paragraph it'll be about this character then the next paragraph its another. I found that a little aggravating at times. "

    " Entertaining and well written, but I woudn't recommend for young readers. Teens and up would be fine. "

    " I really loved this book. Cinda Williams Chima has a gift for creating really rich characters, and in the case of these ones, I kind of want to adopt them all and take them home with me! I found the storyline to be interesting, and the setting to be beautifully described. "

    " If you are looking for a book to test you tolerence, you have picked the right one. it is long and slightly tedious, but in the end it will leave you begging your parents for the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. if you don't finish the series you are a stick in the mud with no taste. "

    " If I could I would give this book a 4.5, only because of the first few chapters. The characters at the beginning did not grab me, but after chapter 4 I realized I was hooked, and couldn't put it down. The story line is fast paced and it's a fun, easy read. I'd recommend it to all ages. "

    " This is the first book in 15 years that I just had to stop and walk away from. I could list out complaints but I just personally found it didn't engage me and worst of all it was completely boring. I had high hopes because it came as a recommendation. This book just wasn't for me. "

    " I`ve really enjoyed this young/adults fantasy book. First installment was more like introduction to the world of Seven Realms, outlining plot and characters, but it was still good. I have high hopes for rest books of this series. "

    " This book is a good start to a series, but it is just that the start. While things are teased in this book they are not explored until the next book in the series come out. So, for a first book in a series it is a great place to start. "

    " this was a good start to a series. I am really hoping that the next is better, though. This one had a lot of character development, and was pretty slow starting. If the next book starts getting into the meat of the plot, however, then this first book setting it all up is necessary. we'll see. "
