Gr 9 Up—This young adult fantasy picks right up where Serpentine left off, although it's not necessary to have read the first novel to enjoy this one. Skybright, a young serpent demon, must come to terms with her own power and her captivity to the immortal Stone. She must find a way to work with her captor to close a breach in hell before more mortals perish and also come to her friend's aid, as her husband appears to have some dark secrets. Little do they know that there is more danger and darkness lurking ahead. The fantasy kingdom of Xia comes alive with Pon's vivid storytelling and descriptions. Narrated beautifully with emotion and ease by Emily Woo Zeller.

VERDICT This fantasy novel features fantastic character development and will surely win over many listeners.
