ARCHANGEL'S LINEAGE

With the sixteenth book in the Guild Hunter series, Nalini Singh brings the series back to its original focus as Elena and Raphael become the main couple of the book again. Since it’s been a long time since we’ve had a book with them as the featured couple, I was very excited about this. And even after reading this book, they remain one of my favorite couples in the series (even though there are so many other great couples in this series).

Elena and Raphael encounter several issues that hit a bit too close to home, endangering those that they love, so it’s a rollercoaster ride of emotions. I really enjoyed the level of grief, love and compassion that this story possessed.

Singh’s words are like poetry, painting a beautiful picture for readers to enjoy. The narration flows like water, making it easy to read. Everything feels so effortless when you step back into this world of angels and vampires. I already can’t wait for the next one.

For a guaranteed good read, you don’t want to miss out on ARCHANGEL’S LINEAGE.

SUMMARY

New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh’s dangerous and beautiful world of archangels, vampires, and mortals has never faced a threat this cataclysmic…

Raphael and Elena are experiencing their first ever year of true peace. No war. No horrors of archangelic power. No nightmares given flesh. Until…the earth beneath the Refuge begins to tremble, endangering not only angelkind’s precious and fragile young, but the very place that has held their most innocent safe for eons.

Amid the chaos, Elena’s father suffers a violent heart attack that threatens to extinguish their last chance to heal the bonds between them and make sense of the ruins of their agonizing shared history.

Even as Elena battles grief, Raphael is torn from her side by the sudden disappearance of an archangel. But worse yet is to come. An Ancestor, an angel unlike any other, stirs from his Sleep to warn the Cadre of a darkness so terrible that it causes empires to fall and civilizations to vanish.

This time, even the Cadre itself may not be able to stop a ticking clock that is counting down at frightening speed…
