Summary:
I hang my head in sorrow for just a moment when I know I am truly alone. I feel like I’m going to my execution, just as he had said. Then I move forward again. I hop a fence of fieldstone and cross a field dotted with Queen Anne’s lace. Goose bumps rise on my arms as I pass the cluster of windmills that I have seen in a dream. The scent is sweet in the field though, not the scent of heat, like it had been when it was forced upon me in visions. I gaze down the hill, beyond the small, whitewashed house that I knew would be there. The church looms dark and grim with its rough-hewn, timber façade, capped by tall, oblong spires reaching to the sky. Black, ominous clouds have collected above the roofline, as if Heaven is showing me the way.

I loved this book way more than the last one! The action picks up and readers get the chance to see what Evie and Russell are capable of. I still think that there will be more abilities to come from each of them but the new ones are very cool. I will say that some of the abilities that that come into play in this one were confusing for me. They were not abilities that I typically think of when I think of angels but it didn't bother me so much that I can't enjoy the book. 

I found the relationship between Brennan and Evie particularly interesting in this book moreso than the last one. The author delves deeper into both sides of the relationship and we get a clearer understanding of where both of them are coming from. I also feel that their relationship is made even more interesting by the fact that Evie fights against it so hard but that there is a darkness within her that pulls her toward it. 

There are more questions that are answered in this one like the identity of Evie's father. I'm hoping that we get to meet him in the next one because I feel like the author made him intriguing. There are also more types of creatures that are introduced in this story but it didn't bug me as much as it did in the last book because they were not the focus. 

The fallens' plan gets fleshed out more in this book and I have to say that the direction that the author is taking it in is awesome! I feel that this direction will create much more tension and the lines between good and evil will truly be blurred. My theory is that it will come to a point where there is a huge gray area wherein divine angel will be fighting on the side of fallen and vice versa. I also think that the whole reason that Evie and now Russell exist is to shake things up and get the angels and other creatures to see that everything in the world isn't as black and white as they like to think.
