The book is loaded with monsters that can haunt those with weak minds. We have heard about humans getting super-strength as a result of some magic but this is dreadful because Sandis’ master is using her body as a human vessel that can host a spirit in it. Sandis is not the only one with this ability but she is the only one who can summon the most powerful monster thus she is like a weapon for her master.
The device helps him to act as an immortal being for one minute every day. Rone is ready to help Sandis but her master has sent strange creatures to track her down. Fighting against monsters is something that Rone has never done before so he gets a shocker of a lifetime. Charlie N. Holmberg is the writer for this tale which is scarier than The Paper Magician and Spellbreaker.
Sandis is finally forced to use her powers against her master because she has to free herself or die trying. Rone too develops an emotional contact with the girl which he thought he would never develop in life. Scott Merriman and Lauren Ezzo have narrated male and female characters separately which makes the impact of the narration quite effective.
