"Exciting battle between good and evil, but with WITCHES!"

Fresh Fiction Review

Archon
Sabrina Benulis

Reviewed by Lyn Nicholas

Fantasy

One thing that I've always had a bit of an obsession with is Academies, especially those that have a supernatural element to them. So imagine my excitement when I discovered that ARCHON is in fact about a girl who ends up attending an Academy for the supernatural!

The Archon is a legendary being who is capable of opening the powerful Book of Raziel and holds great power over the supernatural. Once at the Academy, our main character, Angela, longs to be the Archon but is in competition with a young witch named Stephanie. In addition to wanting to be the Archon, both girls seem to be interested in the same guy as well. Talk about tension! Can they find the key to opening the Book? Who will be revealed as the legendary Archon?

Sabrina Benulis definitely knows what she's doing when it comes to creating a compelling and exciting supernatural story. Like any good story about the battle between good and evil, there are angels and demons. But what I really enjoyed about Sabrina's take on "good vs evil" was the addition of witches. I thought it really raised the bar on an already great premise.

I had so much fun discovering this world along with Angela and would so love to learn more about it! And man, what a killer ending! I can't wait for you all to experience it for yourself.

ARCHON is a pulse-pounding new spin on the classic supernatural story and will certainly leave you wanting more! I can't wait to read more from outstanding new author Sabrina Benulis.

SUMMARY

Angela Mathers is obsessed with visions of angels, supernatural creatures who haunt her thoughts by day and seduce her dreams by night. Released from a mental institution, she hopes her new university, West Wood Academy, will give her the chance at a normal life.

But such is not to be. . . . For a secret coven plots within West Wood, and demons and angels alike walk the streets of Luz, searching for the key to open Raziel's book—a secret tome from a lost archangel. Some wish to destroy Raziel, others, like the Supernal Israfel, one of the highest of the high, to free him. For when the Archon rises as foretold, they will control the supernatural universe.

Torn between mortal love and angelic obsession, Angela holds the key to both Heaven and Hell, and both will stop at nothing to possess her. . . .
