Our view
“The Daylight War” is strongest in its world: demons that rise after dark and rival cultures pushed towards common ground. The third volume of “The Demon Cycle” spends much of its nearly seven hundred pages on those cultures, and their contrasts and likenesses are what some readers enjoy most. Others find that the characters lack depth. A volume for readers already invested in the series and its central idea.
