Succubus Studies

2018, L.L. Frost

4.9/5

Interesting sequel! The worldbuilding continues and fleshes out Adie's surroundings and companions, as well as the lore, much better. Torch, a heat demon living in Adie's bakery's ovens, reminded me strongly of Calcifer in Howl's Moving Castle. I thought he was a Domovoi from Russian folklore at first, living in the oven, only to see one later in the story, to my delight.I'm not one for smut so much, but obviously that is an inherent element of a succubus story. So that said, the physical elements were tastefully done (down to Kellen insisting Adie get something other than nourishment out of their exchanges, something human males aren't so gentlemanly at), and Adie's reluctance to skim energy the traditional way made it easier for me to read altogether. The imps she employs in the bakery were a fascinating medium through which to explore race and gender issues in a supernatural world. BRILLIANTLY done. The date with Emil was cute at the end, especially since he's my favorite of the Primordial roommates. All in all, an enjoyable foray into a unique paranormal world!
