Descent ( Immortal Chronicles book 1)
By Sloane Murphy
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Six hundred years after The Outbreak, the human population stand side by side with the Fae & the Vampyrs to stop the Demon King from starting a second Dark War.
Seventeen year old Adelaide Tate is in her last year of the Academy, with her eyes set on becoming part of the Red Guard.
Who cares that no female has ever joined?
When a dark force develops an unhealthy liking for her, Adelaide needs to fight for her life and figure out what makes her so different from the others.
Betrayal. Fear. Anger.
She must overcome it all in order to turn her world the right way around again.
Adelaide has one choice. Accept the help offered to her by Xander Bane, or face the Demon Hoard alone.
One thing is for sure. The descent will be bloody.

That had me totally engrossed it was a cross between Lauren Kates Fallen and the House of night series by PC Cast. I really enjoyed it. It had me remembering how much I enjoyed this YAs. It may not be perfect but I found it really enjoyable and looking forward the next book. The only thing stopped it being a 5⭐️ was I saw the ending coming!

Oh my gosh! I loved this book! I bought it on a whim based on a reccomendation & boy am I glad I took the chance. I have a very sarcastic sense of humor & I laughed through the entire book! I dont think I've ever been able to.do.that with an entire book before. I can't wait to rrad the next book.
I love the main character, Samuel. I teach & could see parts of plenty of my students in him. Believeable charactersvalways make a book so much better. Nurd is also hilarious...strange think to say about a demon from the Wasteland of Hell but it is true none the less.

Wow! Just wow! This time around I know exactly what rating to give this dark but perplexing read. I am truly enjoying the fact that I am still completely clueless as to the true nature of Six. Is Six an angel? A demon? The figment of Corbin's fragmented mind? The author once again reeled me in right from the start with her beautifully dark writing style. The characters are all stunning and unique and I simply cannot wait for the next book in the series as this cliff hanger ending was more intense than the last. It is indeed a pleasure to spend time in the mind of Nikki Rae.

It's been a very long time since I have seen this and it is certainly not comparable to Eddie Murphy's 80's classics (Beverly Hills Cop/Coming To America etc.). It's not particularly funny and the plot is a rather odd mix of far eastern mysticism and Murphy wisecracks with some very surreal moments (the dancing Pepsi can /demon Charles Dance). For me it's a bit of a mess and overall doesn't really work. It's not boring though and keeps you relatively entertained even if just to see what weird shit is going to happen next but it's definitely at the lower end of the scale of Eddie Murphy movies.
