About this product
Product Information
The first in a "devious and delightful" new series by Alexandra Bracken, #1 New York Times best-selling author of The Darkest Minds , soon to be a major motion picture. *"An infectious, entertaining series starter. Clever, occasionally frightening, and always fun, this will hook plenty." --Booklist, starred review *"Bracken's cast is drawn in loving detail, and her twisty plot will keep readers guessing." --Publishers Weekly, starred review "I would say it's a pleasure to meet thee, Prosperity Oceanus Redding, but truly, I only anticipate the delights of destroying thy happiness...." Prosper is the only unexceptional Redding in his old and storied family history--that is, until he discovers the demon living inside him. Turns out Prosper's great-great-great-great-great-something grandfather made--and then broke--a contract with a malefactor, a demon who exchanges fortune for eternal servitude. And, weirdly enough, eight-hundred-year-old Alastor isn't exactly the forgiving type. The fiend has reawakened with one purpose--to destroy the family whose success he ensured and who then betrayed him. With only days to break the curse and banish Alastor back to the demon realm, Prosper is playing unwilling host to the fiend, who delights in tormenting him with nasty insults and constant attempts to trick him into a contract. Yeah, Prosper will take his afterlife without a side of eternal servitude, thanks. But with the help of his long-lost uncle, Barnabas, and his daughter, Nell, a witch-in-training, it seems like Prosper has at least a fighting chance of ridding himself of Alastor before the demon escapes and wreaks havoc on his family. Little does Prosper know, the malefactor's control over his body grows stronger with each passing night and there's a lot Alastor isn't telling his dim-witted (but admittedly strong-willed) human host... From #1 New York Times best-selling author Alexandra Bracken comes a tale of betrayal and revenge, of old hurts passed down from generation to generation. Can you ever fully right a wrong, ever truly escape your history? Or will Prosper and Alastor be doomed to repeat it?

Reviews
PRAISE FOR THE DARKEST MINDS SERIES "Heart-wrenching but completely riveting, the novel pulls no punches."-- BCCB, PRAISE FOR THE DARKEST MINDS SERIES "Bracken's latest maintains constant tension A new twist on dystopia, this is one not to miss."-- Romantic Times, "There's a wealth of humor here, especially in Prosper and Alastor's back-and-forth sardonic banter, and Prosper himself makes a wittily sarcastic, clever narrator."-- The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, *"An infectious, entertaining series starter. Hapless, dry Prosper is at hilarious odds with his demanding, old-fashioned demon companion, and the thrilling plot twists will keep even the most savvy readers guessing. Clever, occasionally frightening, and always fun, this will hook plenty."-- Booklist, starred review, PRAISE FOR PASSENGER "This time-traveling adventure is rich in detail, the slowburning relationship between Etta and Nicholas will leave many readers breathless, and the startling cliffhanger will reel them back for the next installment."-- Booklist, *"The story's mysteries, which involve the fates of multiple dimensions of reality, unfold slowly enough to build anticipation but quickly enough to keep readers furiously flipping pages... Bracken's cast is drawn in loving detail, and her twisty plot will keep readers guessing."-- Publishers Weekly, starred review, "Imaginative, exhilarating and outstandingly funny, Alexandra Bracken's newest work is devious and delightful."-- Shelf Awareness, PRAISE FOR THE DARKEST MINDS SERIES "Ruby is a wonderfully flawed heroine: fiercely loyal to the ones she loves and refreshingly conflicted about the enormous power she possesses ... [A]fter reading the first two books, readers will be left clamoring for the third."-- Kirkus Reviews, "Unique and humorous...The main characters, including the villain, are likable and flawed. The author's smooth transitions and delightful writing style will draw readers into the story with ease. This is a must-read for fans of Bracken and paranormal mysteries."-- School Library Journal, "Bracken delivers a funny, thrilling, and unexpected tale."-- Robert Beatty, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Serafina series
