Book Description:
In this sequel to the bestselling fantasy thriller, Angelfall, the survivors of the angel apocalypse begin to scrape back together what's left of the modern world. When a group of people capture Penryn's sister Paige, thinking she's a monster, the situation ends in a massacre. Paige disappears. Humans are terrified. Mom is heartbroken.
Penryn drives through the streets of San Francisco looking for Paige. Why are the streets so empty? Where is everybody? Her search leads her into the heart of the angels' secret plans, where she catches a glimpse of their motivations, and learns the horrifying extent to which the angels are willing to go.
Meanwhile, Raffe hunts for his wings. Without them, he can't rejoin the angels, can't take his rightful place as one of their leaders. When faced with recapturing his wings or helping Penryn survive, which will he choose?
I am sooo glad that this finally has a cover! I'm one of those peeps who read and loved Angelfall before it was cool so I feel so proud of it that it's finally getting the attention it deserves. Anyway, I originally thought that this will be released this September so just imagine my dismay when I found out that it's on November. But on the bright side, I have a lot of time to reread Angelfall again and again since it has been almost 2 years since I read the first book. ;)
This is the kind of book I could pick up solely based on the cover without knowing anything else about it. So gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWOW 2 years!! I just started this book *loving it so far* and it's pretty cool that you discovered this gem before the rest of the world :) I love the simple and dystopian feel to the covers.
