Fresh Fiction Review

The Devil's Right Hand
Lilith Saintcrow

Reviewed by Sue Burke
Posted August 15, 2007

Fantasy Urban

Necromancer Dante Valentine has been to Hell and back. Literally. The Prince of Darkness has inked a seven-year deal with Dante, and she's been sent forth to track down four escaped Rogue Demons.

For a girl with serious trust issues, Dante's putting a whole lot of faith in The Prince of Lies. A deal with the Devil is a tricky thing. Dante put it all on the line for Japhrimel, her demon lover, and has been angry about it ever since. If the two come out of this assignment in one piece, she's seriously thinking about kicking his ass. Dying or breaking up just won't be enough this time for the Fallen and his hedaira.

Although at times Dante (Danny) is almost as whiney as Harry Potter was in THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX, she's an appealing heroine. And Saintcrow's characters come into their own and come to life as you're reading them. THE DEVIL'S RIGHT HAND is a book you won't want to put down. Saintcrow's engaging myth arc will keep you reading well past the midnight hour.

SUMMARY

Dante Valentine, Necromancer and bounty hunter, just wants to be left alone. But the Devil has other ideas.

The Prince wants Dante. And he wants her now. And Dante and her lover, Japhrimel, have no choice but to answer the Prince's summons. And to fulfill a seemingly simple task: become the Devil's Right Hand, hunt down four demons that have escaped from Hell, and earn His gratitude.

It's a shame that nothing is ever easy when it comes to the Devil. Because of course, he doesn't tell Dante the whole truth: there is a rebellion brewing in Hell. And there is a good chance that Lucifer is about to be pushed off the throne.

But Dante is getting really tired of being pushed around. And this time, she might be angry enough to take on the Devil himself...
