It's been six weeks since angels of the apocalypse descended to demolish the modern world. Street gangs rule the day while fear and superstition rule the night. When warrior angels fly away with a helpless little girl, her seventeen-year-old sister, Penryn, will do anything to get her back. Anything, including making a deal with an enemy angel. Raffe is a warrior who lies broken and wingless on the street. After eons of fighting his own battles, he finds himself being rescued from a desperate situation by a half-starved teenage girl. Traveling through a dark and twisted Northern California, they have only each other to rely on for survival. Together, they journey toward the angels' stronghold in San Francisco where Penryn will risk everything to rescue her sister, and Raffe will put himself at the mercy of his greatest enemies for the chance to be made whole again. "Ee's debut novel is a promising opener to what looks to be a YA series worth following, one that explores what it means to be human and what it means to be a hero." -- Locus Magazine , March 2012 Finalist for Cybils Bloggers' Award for Best YA Fantasy & Sci-fi Book of the Year 2011
First and foremost, the book came in very good condition, just like I ordered.
Second, the book itself is very enjoyable! It's got angels, its dystopian, it can be pretty gory, and it's got a strong FL. Really loving all these elements and the fact it has a romantic subplot as well! I'm about to be finishing it up, and I would definitely give it 5 stars ♡
A good time killer
