Review
Told in the narrative of Alfrin, the Viking Prince, Team Devil is in search of the Devil's wife, the Banshee, in the 9 Circles of Hell. If she is not located, than the Devil will take his wrath out on Hell itself and Elinor will return to be the Devil's Banshee, as she was in the previous book. Lead by Virgil, the team deals with their own fears that surround their deaths and reinforces the bonds of friendship and love. Hosie does a wonderful job on the descriptions of each of the Circles of Hell and puts quite the comical spin on Dante's "Divine Comedy" in the journey of Team Devil.
This is the third book in the series "Devil's Intern". Recommended for grades 10-12.
Overall Book Score: very good
