4-6Book of Storms Trilogy series.
After rescuing his parents from villainous creature Sammael (The Book of Storms), Danny wants to forget magic. But new friend Cath delivers a message that Danny's cousin, Tom, has sold his soul to Sammael. To save him, Danny must embrace magic again. Danny is a likable, complex hero, but sluggish pacing detracts from the compelling emotional issues in this dark, atmospheric fantasy.
