"Can the angels save their refuge?"

Fresh Fiction Review

Archangel's Lineage

Fantasy | Romance

A decade has passed since the war that ended Lijuan's evil attempt to rule the world. Ten years of peace – the first Elena and Raphael have ever experienced. Until … earthquakes and more dangers threaten the Refuge. Even worse the Refuge that had been hidden for eons is slowly becoming visible to the world. Soon the ARCHANGEL’S LINEAGE is coming into question when no one seems to have the answers to what is happening or why. Even the oldest among the Cadre had never seen such damage and danger for their sacred retreat. There is only so much time before the world is witness to the safe zone of the angels.

Among the chaos in the angel’s world, Elena’s world takes an unexpected hit. Her father suffers a massive heart attack. Will they be able to clear up the many years of anger and tears or is it too late?

Raphael is furious as he is unable to be with Elena as she deals with this because on top of the danger to the Refuge – an archangel is missing leaving a territory unprotected. Not something that they needed at this time, especially with their angelic world in such upheaval.

ARCHANGEL’S LINEAGE takes readers back into the world of Guild Hunter/angel Elena, consort of Archangel Raphael while moving forward ten years. There is so much that happens in this book that you will be constantly on the edge of your seat. This will include an introduction to one of Raphael’s ancestors and Marduk is quite a surprise.

Keep in mind ten years means the children are not exactly children any longer and much has shifted for them. There are many changes in the lives of the half-sisters and Sarah’s daughter is also older. It is always fun to “catch up” with past favorite characters and ARCHANGEL’S LINEAGE is filled with those moments. Vivek has had more time dealing with his vampirism and it looks like there might be a romance in his future. A rather dangerous vampire of unknown age and origin – should be interesting in future offerings. Also, those worrying about Illium’s ascension to archangel – well – read and find out.

For an amazing, fun, heart-wrenching, heart-pounding read – get your hands on ARCHANGEL'S LINEAGE. As a word of warning – you will need to have a full box of tissues handy as there are a lot of emotions that will hit as you go from page to page.

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…
