Praise

Runs full force on the fires of hell and the sword power of heaven… The ultimate showdown is a Harry Potter-worthy battle between good and evil-but with a welcome dose of devilish humor…Demonically inspired by Stoker’s DRACULA and divinely imagined into the present day, the series blends supernatural adventure with real adolescent preoccupations, from homework to hormones.
—The Horn Book

If the Harry Potter and Twilight series conceived a child, DIABOLICAL would be it. This supernatural story takes place at a mysteriously dangerous boarding school… Think Hogwarts. But move over Jacob, there is a new werewolf in town named Kieren. His girlfriend, Quincie, is a vampire and his best friend, Zachary, is a fallen angel who lost his wings when he revealed himself to a human teen and fell in love with her. Together, this menagerie of magical creatures pretend to enlist at this spooky academy in order to protect another friend, Lucy, who has recently enrolled and whose life may be in peril due to the supernatural shenanigans that occur… For readers who are thirsting for more dark, paranormal fiction, this novel fits the bill.
—VOYA

A smart, playful series… A blend of romance, action and horror, this distinguishes itself from the crowd of paranormal teen fare with the employ of plenty of camp and a healthy dose of dry humor… fans of the first three will thrill to this latest.
—Kirkus Reviews

Told from the alternating points of view of the four main characters, this captivating story combines action, suspense, and romance with just the right touch of humor to keep it entertaining. A great finish to an original and satisfying series.
