Mortal Path by Dakota Banks

Mortal Path series hy Dakota Banks is an urban fantasy series that has three books in it and has huge gaps due to the series not being finished.

It starts with a scene from a long time ago in a small village where a young lady is treated badly and they tried to kill her.  It then goes on to her current life in the current timeframe and her trying to love with her past.

This is about revenge and redemption and also about finding your way through the darkest times.  The characters name changes as she would no longer be Susannah who was betrayed in the colonies but would become something different and her new name shows her new abilities as well as her new job in life.

I do like that they show a very different side of life that isn’t all roses.  It shows about jealousy and about what happens with unfounded accusations.  This leads to a lot of desperate and evil actions.

What I found the most intriguing it gives you an amazing story showing how Susannah became disillusioned with her life and wanted to be something other than what Rabishu the demon son made her into. 

Rabishu is the won of Nergral who is absent from the world and he is creating ageless as they are called who are assassins and do whatever they are asked generally without thinking. 

Maliha or the ageless once known as Susannah and was a Hitman for a demon.  She lost her way and this story is her finding her way back. Trying to balance the scales as you may say which after over three centuries of doing bad for demons it’s not as easy to balance them.  Love the redemption arc of this book and the entire series.

The ageless are an amazing magical creation of the demons.  They don’t age while on the job but can be killed, and they have super speed as well.  It’s amazing to see this creation and what they can do.  There are other gifts that they could have as well but that are more individual as well.
