Darcy has written an amazing second book with friendships that some people can only imagine. This book will sure be a catcher for kids who like rebellious pre-teens. Malachi and his friends are naturally trouble makers, but this time the trouble comes to them, when a ball inviting all demons and angels to unite stirs up all kinds of distress, whispers and shushed murmurs of Chaos’s return.The author did a great job writing this follow up book to Grounded for all Eternity, also set in Hell, but could be read as a stand alone without having read book 1.. A funny, fantasy/mythology book, it was a great read and I’m sure anybody else seeking an adventurous teen rebellion to cheer their day, this book, will surely be the perfect match. I liked how it wove together Underworld mythological and literary character names into the plot (Anubis, Ophelia, Puck).There isn’t much to dislike, but I don’t really think Mal should like Lilith… but that’s probably just me!
