Life on earth can get a bit boring. Especially when you
have been exiled to the planet since what modern people
call the ancient times. An ordinary mission to stop a woman
from committing suicide opens the door for the biggest
adventure that the exiled angel Xandir has had in
centuries. He realizes that not everything is as it seems,
even when you are an angel.
THE LAST ARCHANGEL is a fast paced adventure with a
wonderful back story filled with historical events and
theological references. The reader is brought into many
worlds with unique and imaginative cultures all their own.
We get to peek into the lives of cherubs in heaven as well
as those who are being punished for their sins on the
outskirts of hell. The multiple character point of views
give the reader a chance to decipher the story's clues
from different perspectives. You automatically feel for the
main female character, Eden, as you watch her dream life
fall apart at the seams. The character that was a pleasant
surprise to connect with was Xandir, the destroyer angel.
He not only has the mission of punishing those who deserve
justice but he also gives mercy to those who are innocent.
He is able to determine which is necessary in the situation
put upon him with the help of the swords he always carries
with him. The choices he must make throughout the story
highlight the fact that everything is not black and white
in situations. As the wielder of such powerful tools, he
must also make decisions that affect the lives of those he
is meant to protect.
If you are looking for a story that magnifies the fact that
life is filled with choices that will affect others in ways
that can be considered good and bad, THE LAST ARCHANGEL is
the book for you. It will make you think before you praise
or fault those around you for the decisions they have made
in their lives.
Xandir has been exiled to earth until the end of time. But
when his cherub trainee disappears, Xandir makes a deal with
rogue angels and giants that could restore life to the
mortal woman he loves and end his assignment as a destroying
angel in exchange for helping them bring about the end of
the world and all of mankind.
