Gr 9 Up—Continuing from where The Devil's Intern (Holiday House, 2015) left off, in this sequel, Hell has returned to normal and readers will find Medusa Pallister applying to work for Septimus, the biggest boss of the underworld, alongside Mitchell Johnson. Her goal is to figure out why she saw Mitchell and his friends outside her house before she died only to find that he doesn't have any answers either. This becomes the least of her worries when the Devil's dreamcatcher is stolen by an Unspeakable, Rory Hunter, and Hell is on lockdown. On a mission to recapture the dreamcatcher, the team is reunited and take part on an adventure outside of Hell. Using the viscometer, they are challenged by the Unspeakable as well as unruly angels. Skinwalkers and other new characters are the least of their problems. Hosie contintues to sensitively incorporate beliefs from a variety of cultures in her humorous exploration of the afterlife. With lots of adventure and a clever twist, this book will be another favorite among readers.
VERDICT Fans of the previous volume will not be disappointed with this zany follow-up.
