About this listen

A delightful romantic Korean contemporary fantasy tale - a quest to track down a demon of darkness before it devours the mortal realm.

Two bickering immortals. One chance to save the world.

Kim Hani - the once-terrible gumiho known as the Scarlet Fox - spends her days working at a café and trying not to let a certain customer irk her.

Seokga - a trickster god thrown from the heavens for his attempt at a coup - spends his days hunting demons and irking a particular gumiho.

When a demon of darkness escapes the underworld, and the Scarlet Fox briefly emerges from hiding, Seokga is offered a chance at redemption: kill them both, and his sins will be forgiven.

But Hani is prepared to do anything to prevent Seokga from bringing her to justice, even trick her way into his investigation. Anything, that is - except fall in love . . .

I loved the cover and the Scarlet Fox in this story. I also loved that it showcase other countries traditions and stories told there, diversity and inclusivity is key to ensure everyone is included. Although I enjoyed it, I found it hard to connect with the characters. But I encourage everyone to read this book

Great Story.

I liked the concept but it was just missing something. The first half of super slow! And also once again there is no build up of a relationship it just seems to happen really quickly and I hate that ! The first half could have been spent on that !!!

So close to being good but a bit meh

its been a long time since a story and characters got me hooked so fast, i finished the whole book in 2 days, the main characters had me giggling (and crying). i found that id guessed the big bad at the end quite early on, but i cant fault this book at all. the hopeless romantic in me was left feeling broken but hopeful. absolutely beautiful

love a grumpy fallen god!

For such old immortal beings they behave like 10 year old children throwing tantrums. It’s not sexy. It’s not fun. The chemistry just isn’t there. Forced proximity is meant to be fun but this ain’t it. I don’t know who this was written for as the detailed murder make it too adult for YA but the relationships are for 10 year olds.

So immature. Reads very YA and fenficy
