The Demon Prince

Seven Deadly Demons, Book 3

De: Emma Hamm

Narrado por: Lia Holland, Logan McAllister

When a demon gets a taste for his own subjects, only one woman will offer herself to stop him.

Gluttony has existed in the shadows for centuries. He's consumed everything possible. Food, wine, magical substances, even the sweet kisses of maidens. When he realizes the one thing he's never consumed is a human itself, his kingdom spins into chaos.

Katherine lives in the shadows of her village. Injured as a child, she isn't a suitable match for marriage. So, instead, she dedicates herself to having some purpose in the town. Stitching people up after Gluttony has his way with them makes her realize she could be more of a solution than a problem.

So she makes the trek up to his castle and offers him a deal he cannot refuse. Her blood, unlimited, if he will leave the rest of her town alone.

Though he's never even considered such a deal, Gluttony finds himself obsessed with this new human pet. He cannot get her honey scent out of his nose or the kindness of her touch out of his mind. And he swiftly realizes that she soothes an ache in his chest he had forgotten existed.

This little human has reminded him how lonely he is. And now he'll do anything to keep her.

Book three in the Seven Deadly Demons series will follow Gluttony back to his kingdom hidden in the moors...

4 Stars!

Another wildly entertaining Seven Deadly Demons book! I love the characters and their growth over the course of the book, all their little quirks and the personality development are some of the best since you can find similar characteristics to your own.

Sexy but errors

I like this series but this one seemed to go on a bit too long. There were several discontinuities. I do t like the male narrator. At times it seems like maybe he has a lisp, and the female narrator was a little robotic at times. This one had sooooooo many spicy scenes. I was worried about our FMC a few times and wanted her to be smarter. But in the end I like the way it ended and wish it had more in the epilogue about his kingdom.

hmmm

I have read and or listened to several Emma Hamm books and this is so far the one I am most disappointed in. As usual, the male and female protagonists are both lovable and endearing. Gluttony is perhaps the most endearing MC I have ever read about. He is kind, he is gentle and he is somewhat of an introvert, something that I identify with. He is absolutely not a monster. I felt as if this book was just a bridge book and not a complete book; in that it was only simply meant to introduce Envy in book 4. Gluttony's character was very basic even though I feel that Gluttony should have been a very complex being. Even Katherine's character was way more complex than his. The character of Gluttony was very predictable, and I felt very dissatisfied because I kept expecting to read about a very complex and thoughtful character, but instead I got a handsome, self-loathing, red-eyed vampire. His name should have been self-loathing not Gluttony because he was not a glutton in any way. I really liked his character, I also really liked Katherine's character and I am quite sad that he was mistreated this way. Both of these characters were very endearing and I felt a sense of emptiness after reading the book. I like reading Emma Hamm's books because the male protagonists tend to be very strong, funny, incredibly strange, yet sincere and dashingly handsome. The female characters are always strong and smart, even when they are vulnerable. I have never felt dissatisfied with any Emma Hamm female character, as they are always the kind of women I wouldn't mind being myself; i.e compassionate, passionate, super intelligent, super strong in their own right, have a sense of agency, intuitive, introspective and so on..... They also do not wallow in their weakness or mediocrity. They rarely if ever cry..... (an act I find infuriating, except in rare circumstances). I just love her female protagonists, starting with Mira from Whispers of the deep.
The narrators were once again wonderful, but even they couldn't save this book from being a bit less than averagely satisfying.
