The Queen of the Underworld by Lauren Louise Hazel

A darkly demonic thrill from Lauren Louise Hazel, The Queen of the Underworld is the resurgent second chapter of her Occult urban fantasy series. Though magic Users are now free from their merciless hunters, the realm of the Fae is a blasted ruin, and an ancient threat has emerged from the shadows, seizing the moment to retake her throne. The book’s titular ruler has possessed the body of Prue’s dear friend and is killing innocent mortals to fully regain her power, and once again a motley crew of YA heroes and unlikely allies unite to defeat a demonic enemy of pure darkness. With a compelling band of protagonists who are each well-drawn in their own right, and an equally sinister set of antagonists occupying a unique multilayered world, Hazel expands the scope of her series, improving on the first installment with a dizzying array of supernatural twists and contemporary themes, resulting in an impressively multifaceted work of dark fantasy.
