From the New York Times bestselling author of The Replacement comes a transcendent novel about a demon girl’s search for love.
Everything burns in Pandemonium . . .
. . . a city in Hell made of chrome and steel, where there is no future and life is an expanse of frozen time. That’s where Daphne lives.
The daughter of a demon and a fallen angel, she wonders what lies in store for her. Will she become a soulless demon like her sisters? Or follow in the footsteps of her brother Obie, whose life is devoted to saving lost souls on Earth? All she wants is to find a place where she belongs.
When Obie saves a bleeding, broken boy named Truman from the brink of death and then suddenly goes missing, Daphne runs away to Earth to find him. But on Earth, everything is colder and more terrifying, and Daphne struggles between her demon instincts and her growing—yet achingly unfamiliar—feelings for Truman. As Daphne and Truman search for Obie, they must navigate the jealousies and alliances of the violent archangels who stand in their way. But Daphne also discovers, unexpectedly, what it means to love and be human in a world where human is the hardest thing to be.
Praise for The Replacement
“I loved this eerie and beautiful story of ugly things. It should be read aloud after dark, at a whisper.”—Maggie Stiefvater, New York Times bestselling author of the Wolves of Mercy Falls series
“I loved this book. Mackie Doyle is one of the sweetest, strangest, most magnetic heroes I’ve met in a long time. He charmed me and his story kept me up at night. The Replacement is funny and brave, scary and touching.”—Lauren Kate, New York Times bestselling author of the Fallen novels
“Yovanoff’s unsettling villains and intriguing moral ambivalence make this effort shockingly original and frequently breathtaking.”—Booklist, starred review
“A devastating look at familial love, sacrifice, and loneliness. Yovanoff’s spare but haunting prose creates an atmosphere shrouded in gloom and secrecy.”—BCCB, starred review
“A fast-paced, dark delicacy.”—Kirkus Reviews
“This book has the makings of a success.”—Publishers Weekly
