Sinossi
Un esercito di angeli sterminatori ha attaccato la Terra: dopo poche settimane la violenza dilaga ovunque, insieme alla paura e alla superstizione. Nella Silicon Valley ostaggio delle gang, la diciassettenne Penryn cerca di sopravvivere e proteggere la sua famiglia, fino a quando gli angeli guerrieri non rapiscono sua sorella minore, la più fragile, la più indifesa. L'unico modo per salvarla è affidarsi a un nemico, un angelo che ha perso le ali in combattimento e ora ha bisogno, come Penryn, di raggiungere la roccaforte delle crudeli creature alate a San Francisco. Nel viaggio che li porterà alla città, Penryn e Raf impareranno a contare solo l'una sull'altro, in un deserto in cui regnano la devastazione e il sospetto e in cui il pericolo è dietro ogni angolo.

4.5 freaking stars! It was a great story.I haven't read much angel books before and this one was quite good.Also the characters fit with the story quite right.There were some funny moments which I really enjoyed. The story: The book is about a girl named Penryn who lives in a world taken by angels.
In the beginning, it starts with a single feather drifting slowly down from the sky. When 17-year-old Penryn sees this simple sight, she is filled with incredible dread, because this lovely, floating, ephemeral thing is an unlikely sign of terrible things to come. Six weeks after a devastating attac Leggi tutto
Warning, warning: this review has a lot of expletives because this book makes me so damn happy. I also get a bit of an attitude when a book makes me overjoyed, so be forewarned. I'm a little sassy. This book just makes me feel so incredibly happy inside that I just can't help expressing myself. Whe
This book rocked my socks. Penryn. Raffe. The dialogue. Awesome.
The morning beckons and when I turn over, the book I finished in the midnight hours is beside me. The fantasy world is slipping away, unable to follow me into the light. Reality creeps in with the rising dawn, but I'm reluctant to meet it. I want that world, those characters, that emotion back - but Leggi tutto
Susan Ee, I salute you. Please do mankind a favor and send a copy of your book to every author who has ever written a book about angels - maybe they'll finally understand that they're not going about it right. You are. This is how you write a book about angels. This is how you write a post-apo
