Sarah (7800 KP) rated Lucifer - Season 1 in TV
Jul 30, 2019
Lucifer for me is very similar to other male protagonist led tv shows, like House, The Mentalist, Elementary etc but in some ways it’s better as the humour and the entire itself is a little darker and naughtier than these others, and it’s all the better for it. It’s basically a supernatural crime show, with some wonderful laugh out loud humour thrown in. You can really tell Neil Gaiman has had a hand in creating this! The stars of this show are the very clever writing and Tom Ellis as Lucifer. He plays Lucifer so well, so charming, wicked and yet lovable at the same time and the things he says are often downright hilarious. This show wouldn’t be half as good if he wasn’t in it. I liked the rest of the cast and characters too though, except for Chloe. I found her quite irritating, way too pouty and you can tell even from this first series that her and Lucifer will end up falling for each other and I hate series that do this. Just because they’re working together doesn’t mean they have to sleep together too! So annoying. But Chloe aside, this is worth watching for Tom Ellis alone. Wonderfully fun.

An accursed child of earth and fire, bathed in blood on the darkest of nights…
The supernatural society lives by two laws.
Don’t tell humans about their existence.
Don’t mix the races.
Rule number one is easy enough to follow, but rule number two...well, it’s a lot harder than it seems for someone like Emelia. Her mother being caster and her father, a dragon shifter, makes her the exact thing that the Council has outlawed against. Persecuted and hunted for what she is, she has no choice but to go on the run.
Now with the help of her shifter mate, Xander, Emelia is searching for the only person that can help her in her greatest time of need. But she soon learns that the help she sought really isn’t the help she needs and that her hopes and dreams don’t matter when fate has other plans.
With peace slipping through her grasp, will Emelia be able to thrive in the chaos, or will she succumb to its darkness?
This was definitely a very good second book! I got a little bored of her constantly reminding us that xan was her mate and her dragon! But it was a good read and suddenly got very hot and heavy! Emelia definitely has got more dangerous and more kickass! Recommended to all reverse harem fans!
