Son of a Librarian

On this episode of Son of a Librarian, I dive into the captivating novella "A Demon's Gift" by L.S. O'Day. Despite its short length, the book is packed with an engaging story that keeps you hooked from start to finish. The worldbuilding aspect is well-balanced, providing enough information to understand the setting without overwhelming the plot. Although some parts of the plot may be predictable, it doesn't diminish the impact of the revealing moments. However, it should be noted that the story tackles some heavy themes. Join me as I explore the powerful and thought-provoking journey of Iatee and the quest for freedom in "A Demon's Gift." Buy your own copy in my bookstore: https://bookshop.org/a/79617/9781942706496
