Demon Lost: High Demon, Book 1 (High Demon Series) Kindle Edition

"Reah, this is Commander Aris." Bel moved aside once we were inside the spacious office, and I received my first look at the outpost Commander. He stared at me for moments as I stood before him. I was so frightened, I was afraid I'd burst into tears. Aris was a lion of a man with thick, shoulder-length dark-gold hair, swept back from his forehead. He didn't stand as his rank dictated, otherwise I think he would have dwarfed Bel, whom I thought was quite tall. The Commander's shoulders were broader, too and I imagined that he'd gained his rank by working for it.

"Reah, how did those two miscreants bring you here when you were underage?" Commander Aris asked me after moments of silence. He sounded as if he'd just gotten his voice back.

"They found me and told me I should come with them," I hung my head. I nearly jumped when I imagined that I heard a voice inside my head. I'm sure it was my fear—giving me hallucinations when there was nothing there. , the voice said. I drew a shaky breath and managed to put it out of my mind. The voice didn't come again.
* * *

The High Demon race is dying, and nothing short of a miracle will save it. Kifirin has promised to provide that miracle, in any way he can.

* * *
Reah has worked in the kitchens of her family's restaurants since the age of eight. The only daughter among Addah Desh's 27 children from eight wives, Reah has been ignored, belittled and abused all her life. When the conscription notice comes from the Regular Alliance Army, Reah is more than happy to report for duty in order to escape her family. Unfortunately, her liberation is short-lived….

About the Author

Reinvention/Reincarnation. Those words describe Connie best. She has worked as a janitor, a waitress, a mower of lawns and house cleaner, a clerk, secretary, teacher, bookseller and (finally) an author. The last occupation is the best one, because she sees it as a labor of love and therefore no labor at all. Connie has lived in Oklahoma all her life, with brief forays into other states for visits. She and her husband have been married for more years than she prefers to tell and together they have one son. After earning an MFA in Film Production and Animation from the University of Oklahoma, Connie taught courses in those subjects for a few years before taking a job as a manager for Borders. When she left the company in 2007, she fully intended to find a desk job somewhere. She found the job. And the desk. At home, writing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Honest Truth : a Must Read

This book was just wow. Reah's life seems to go from bad to worse in a short span of time. She starts off as slave/ignored sister/cook, she is turned in to a soldier, however she is seen as to small to preform soldier duties and is sent off to be a cook in a governors home. At this point in the story you are wrapped, and the wrapping continues to bring you in. Reah's life seems to go up and down and the way Ms. Suttle writes' brings you right along with the characters. I can't wait to read the next book.

I really liked the beginning of this book but if you have not read any other books by Connie Suttle you will be lost in the second half of the book when several characters from her other books show up. I had no idea what was going on and reread several passages trying to figure it out. I finally went to Suttles Amazon page and saw the other series. I am anxious for the 2nd book because I really liked the main character Reah but don't start with this book you will end up lost.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT new series

I have just finished Demon Lost. I LOVED it!!! I loved everything about it. I know I'm gushing. The story was very strong, it contained some of the elements of Connie's other books that we all love, and tied into her other series. I loved the character, Reah. A hero is defined as an ordinary person, in extraodinary circumstances. The describes Reah, as she is unaware of any ability, but does not shrink from what she needs to do. I was so engrossed in the story, that suddenly I read "The End". What?? I couldn't believe that I had finished the book. It leaves me anxiously awaiting the next "Demon" books. I can see a wild ride ahead for Reah, and can't wait to ride along.

Now, I'm going to read it again, slower!

Another Great Connie Suttle book.!!!!

I read the Blood Destiny series which was excellent. I didn't realize that the High Demon series was kind of a continuation of the first series. You should read the Blood Destiny series first or you may be a little lost with the characters and culture.

The book had a slow start, but soon the story line picked up and got really exciting and action packed. The story line is both interesting and very imaginative.

I'm currently reading Demon's King book 3; that should tell you that I am enjoying this series very much.

Demon Lost is a great start to what promises to be an amazing series. The main character is a young girl named Reah, who from the title we can tell promises to be a High Demon. Connie Suttle retains her ability to create characters that her readers can't help but care for. By the second chapter I wanted to give Reah a hug and promise to be her friend.

Demon Lost opens with a heart wrenching description of Reah's life under her family's control that instantly creates a sympathetic bond with her. The novel goes on to involve Reah in what readers of the Blood Destiny series will recognized as the ongoing fight with an enemy known as the Ra'Ak. What makes this book contain way more depth than is typical of the first in a series is the tie in with the world of an already well-developed series. Not only do we see the Ra'Ak, but well-known organizations such as the Alliance and the ASD (Alliance Security Detail) are also deeply ingrained in the novel. This cross over becomes more obvious as the book goes on, and characters from the Blood Destiny series begin to play increasingly important roles. Connie Suttle tops of what is already a great read with one of the mind-blowing endings she has so artfully perfected.

The first book in the High Demon series does not disappoint. Long time fans of Connie Suttles previous series will be overjoyed and new readers will be hooked!

I love the Blood Destiny and Legend of the Ir'Indicti books, because of their simple human beginnings and wasn't going to read this series, but I am glad I did, Connie introduces another simple character we grow to care for, and attaches to her ever growing family of familier, and loveable characters from her other series.

Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2012

The first time I read this book, I devoured it. So I flipped it right back to the beginning and did it again.

Reah is an intelligent,and strong woman. I really like seeing the characters from the Blood Destiny series in this one... I am emotionally attached to them already.Getting to know a different protagonist than Lissa, but still seeing characters from that series grow and develop is just thrilling to me.

I can't wait for the next book! The ending of Demon Lost left me craving much more! (and what a cliffhanger!)

Dieser Roman ist der Auftakt der Serie um Rhea.
Rhea ist ein High Demon, weiß es aber selber nicht. Sie muss viel Leid und Gewalt ertragen.
Die Serie hat mich ebenso gefesselt, wie die Bood Destiny Serie um Lissa. Diese und andere Charaktere tauche auch in der High Demon Serie auf, da hier in der selben Umgebung die Romane spielen.

Die einzelnen Teile der Serie haben ein paar Höhen und Tiefen, aber es lohnt sich die Serie im ganzen zu lesen.

Connie Suttle is such a wonderful writer! She produces a new novel every month, and they all follow on from each other. We have a major new character in this book - Reah - and the return of many old characters. Connie's books are almost like a soap! I am so involved in them, I love her characters, each one a completely different creation. Other reviewers have outlined the story, so I will just say I loved it, and am looking forward to the next one.

The only warning I will give is that anyone who wants to read Connie's books, should start with number one, 'Blood Wager' and work through them in order of publication. A chronological list is given on her website.

Nach 10 Büchern der Blood Destiny-Serie hätte ich nicht geglaubt das es möglich wäre ein Sequel und Fortsetzung in einem solch spannenden Buch zu vereinen.
Die Bücher dieser Autorin sind immer wieder gut zu lesen (Auch zwei bis dreimal oder öfter?). Ich kann sie vorbehaltlos empfehlen und wurde bisher noch nicht entäuscht.
