Synopsis (Goodreads):
When I first landed a bartending job at the local guild, I didn't know a thing about magic. These days, I'm practically an expert on the different magical classes, but there's one nobody ever talks about: Demonica.

Turns out they have a good reason for that. My guild is strictly hellion-free, because who wants to risk life and limb to control the biggest bullies on the mythic playground?

Well, some people do, and now a demon has been loosed in the city. My three best friends are determined to slay it, but even badass combat mages are critically out-magicked. And that's not all. The monster they're tracking—it's not hiding. It's not fleeing. It's not leaving a trail of corpses everywhere it goes.

The demon is hunting too. And in a city full of mythics, it's searching for deadlier prey.

If we can’t unravel the demon’s sinister motivations, more innocent people will die, but finding the answers means digging into dark secrets … and learning truths I never wanted to know.
Thoughts on Demon Magic and a Martini: Oh, yeah. The book I've been waiting for since reading Robin and Zylas's story. We get answers (of a sort) about Ezra's mysterious, err, powers or situation or however you want to describe it. We also get to see the demon hunt from another perspective (you know, since Robin's first guild was pretty awful at searching and being, you know, decent).

Anywho. Tori and her dudes get in on the demon hunting action. Tori, as usual, throws herself headfirst into anything and everything with even a smidge of danger. I'm just kidding about that. She's actually tries to keep herself safe, she's just not the type of person who will walk away from a dangerous situation if there's something she can do to stop it. It doesn't matter if she ends up hurt or bespelled or anything, she's going to do what she can do to put things right.

As for Ezra and the others...I suspect things are going to get much more dangerous before they get better. THINGS ARE HAPPENING and Tori isn't one to stop fighting, so she's going to jump in hard and fast.

MAN, I'm digging this series.
