The Demon Awakens
This was an absolute chore to get through.The first half is setting the scene, introducing characters and the tedious route they take to where they're useful enough for the next leg.
It picks up slightly then becomes another yawn-fest as they head out to the boss level.
Predictable, uses most of the fantasy stereotypes going, and the characters aren't all that interesting during any stage of the book.
There was another book in the same universe called The Highwayman (set at a later date if I remember correctly) which was a better read.
