The Night Eaters: Her Little Reapers is the Eisner Award-winning second volume in the graphic novel horror trilogy following She Eats the Night from the creative team behind the New York Times bestselling series Monstress.
Bestselling author Marjorie Liu and illustrator Sana Takeda have done it again, spinning an epic tale of gods and monsters in Her Little Reapers that will leave readers hungry for more.
It's been four months since the night of gore, chaos, and the failed demonic summoning that revealed the Ting twins' unusual family background. Since then, Milly and Billy have tried to explore their new powers, but their parents, Ipo and Keon, haven't been much help. Despite the lack of explanations, one thing is abundantly clear: the Ting family is part of a much larger supernatural world and something in that world is very, very wrong.
As Ipo and Keon are reluctantly drawn back into the treacherous high society of supernatural elites, their children find that dealings with the spirit world comes at a steep price--when the dead have unfinished business with the living, only blood can balance the scales. To save humanity and themselves, the Tings will have to embrace their inner demons.

As the twins tap into their demonic powers, a whirlwind of violence ensues. Second arcs like these left me pleased with the momentum that it built along with the ending cliffhanger.
Great art and a story that really picks up l! Loved it and glad I stuck with the series. Can't wait for Volume 3!
The pacing and tension was all over the place for me. Constant flashbacks and side jokes/banter broke things up in an uneven manner. I had constant tonal whiplash and found it sapping my interest in the characters. It didn't help that I wasn't a fan of the plot either.
The Night Eaters Vol 2 s a wild ride in getting to know your true self and that your parents have been lying to you you whole life. I was confused at times but enjoyed it nonetheless. Lots of gore, comedy, and eff bombs galore. I like how funny and curious Billy continues to be and responsible Milly wants to be. The dog scene was hilarious. Great series and I hope to continue when the next volume gets released.
Great series from Majorie Liu, looking forward to the next instalment.
