I admire Abigail the most. She faces the evil fiercely. I don't want to be like her because everyone has his own character but I admire the persons who face the evil fiercely.

I like Abigail. She has been persevering her entire life and never gave up. I also like Haatim as he managed himself pretty well when he suddenly entered the world of demons and his whole life got turned upside down.

I found Arthur quite alluring. His "broken" demeanour is part of the charm. I guess its brought about by the nature of his work.

If this was my work I'd prefer his attributes.

Arthur was the most interesting character. He was dark yet he loved Abigail like her daughter...

I have to agree. Abigail is an exceptionally strong female lead.

I liked Abigail the most. None of them really impressed me and I wouldn't want to be any of them. As friends maybe I would be with Abigail, though I highly doubt the friendship would last long if she was sticking to her troubled past and refusing to trust people. I like people who are willing to improve in all aspects no matter how great they think they are. You may be great but you ain't perfect, so own up to it and look around for ways to improve.

Arthur had the most complexity and the least known about him. I really want to know his backstory! Abigail grew on me, but initially she was so harsh she almost seemed like the demons she was supposed to be saving Haatim from. I am curious to see if she becomes more likable later on.

Abigail would be my choice she's tough, doesn't scare easy and she can pack a punch!

I found Haatim the most interesting one. He stars as a faithless child who is in grief of losing his sister and grows to have got his faith back through his experiences. I would definitely like to be in his shoes if i could.

I don't think I would want to be in place of any of the characters but I definitely liked the character traits of Belphegor especially the way the character was written when it had possessed the little boy. I actually like all the characters but this one just seems the most intriguing one to me. Also, there are some great characters in the book and Lincoln Cole could have done so much more with the development of the characters which is something I feel he missed out on!

I find arthur most interesting of them all but sadly his part was very little. Hope he returns in the further parts.

I liked Arthur's soul-destroyed character and want to know what brought him to that point. Hashim is too wishy-washy for me even after he grew a spine but Abigail takes the cake, the party and the ice cream. She has come a long way, still has her 'demons' inside that she has to live with just like everyone else. Consequently, she does not share herself easily unless she trusts you. Most probably don't remember the line about one of her first kills with the Reverend when she was seven years old. Another defining moment in her life. Don't judge until you walk in someone else's shoes. That toughness was earned but it doesn't mean she's inhuman. It simply means her shell is harder to crack.

Majority of the time my answer to this type of question is usually the protagonists and this one is the same.
