The novel continues the story of the Montague Twins Peter and Alastair, and a few of their friends as they navigate learning to harness their magical powers. The Devil’s Music, an engaging graphic novel that is beautifully illustrated and coloured, will grab the attention of many readers. That being said, I am not sure this novel reads well as a standalone, but the second read was far more enjoyable than the first once I knew more about the characters and plot, though! In order to give this novel a genuine review, I reread the text to simulate knowing who the characters are and how they interact with one another. After the first read, some of the characters were still slightly confusing, and, as mentioned in Pam Withers’ review, the relationship dynamics were a little bit hazy. After reading the review for The Witch’s Hand, I was excited to dive into this weighty graphic novel. Full disclosure: this review is being written based only on the second volume of “The Montague Twins” series as I had not read the first book in the series.
