Goodreads Synopsis:
As half-angel Willow
strives to save the world from her parasitic otherworldly kin, romance and
tension heat up to a climactic finale.
In the devastated
remains of the world, millions of people live in "refugee" camps
provided by the angels who have all but enslaved humanity. As this angelic
stranglehold tightens, Willow
and Alex are recruiting and training new Angel Killers while struggling to hold
ground on the celestial battlefield. But Willow
continues to have feelings for Seb, and her love and resolve are tested as a
shattering revelation sends Alex on a separate journey. Now that the final
battle versus the angels is about to begin-and the fate of the world hangs in
the balance-each of them must face the consequences of their own choices. Will
love endure? Will the human race survive?
My Review:
The
war is finally here. Alex, Willow ,
and the Angel Killers have trained months for this ultimate showdown and are
ready to fight. Along the way they lost a few friends, but they have managed to
stay together and remember what they are fighting for. In the previous book
they were leaving Mexico
to find a secret base that would provide them with the weapons to annihilate
the Angels.
To
make things worse, Raziel has put a hit out for Willow and her friends. If they are spotted
they are to be killed on the spot. The Angel Killers must be on the lookout if
they want to survive and go to war. Meanwhile, Raziel is opening a portal to bring the rest of the
Angels to Earth to take over. However, Alex's father built a machine long time
ago and if they can get it to work, then Alex can travel to the other side of
the portal and stop the Angels from entering.
There
is so much going on that at times I was overloaded with information. The
characters are going through so much pain and loss that it's sad to see them
suffer. I have come to love each character and it was sad to see some of them
die. Alex and Willow 's
relationship has taken a hit when Seb came into the picture. There is of course
a love triangle--which I am not a fan of-- that complicates everything. Seb is
in love with Willow
since she is the only other half-angel he can relate to. But Willow loves Alex and Alex is not sure how he
feels and is undecided. Goshhh! It was so annoying trying to keep up with the
love tangle. Overall, the plot was exciting and well paced. Definitely a new
take on the Angel world and I admire Weatherly for showing how angels can have
a bad side to them.
