I was very curious about this book after hearing about it on a podcast. I admit I'm not a massive Twilight fan but I like paranormal themed YA and I thought it would be interesting to see a more actual scripture based take on angels and demons/devils. I'm agnostic but I figured that the books mined a mythos that's rich and has 2,000 years of depth and background to it so it definitely had source material to play with. This book was not good however. It was obvious (the angel is named Judas, really?), the writing very simplistic and dull, and the worst part was the formatting. I don't know if this is some issue with Amazon or the book's newest edition but the spacing is awful and makes it very, very hard to read. Mostly, though, it's flat and everyone is about as well drawn as a cardboard cutout. Just a waste of an interesting idea and a good mythology source.
