What is the price of vengeance? Kell Shaw's Vestiges of Magic universe gets a new hero in this thrilling, stand-alone adventure. Her name is Vex, and she has it all: the greatest boyfriend in the world, and a golden future as an athlete and top university student. Then it's all ripped away from her in a brutal, senseless attack. As she's dying, a demon makes her an offer: vengeance in exchange for service. Vex doesn't think twice. Newly alive and filled to the brim with demonic power, Vex is ready to kill the men who murdered the boy she loved. Pity finding them will mean descending into a world of supernatural cults, predatory monster hunters, dark magic, and fell secrets. Even worse, the boy she sold her soul to avenge might not be the man she thought she knew… Reflections Upon the Anniversary of My Descent is the first book in the Cambion Chronicles, a series of adventures exploring the demonic underworld of the Vestiges of Magic universe.
