Angelopolis: A Novel (Angelology Series)
*Starred Review* This is a stunning follow-up to the best-seller Angelology. Ten years have passed since Verlaine watched his lover, Evangeline, take flight from the Brooklyn Bridge as her true self, an ancient species born of human and angel parents. Verlaine has spent the last decade learning to capture and torture all angel forms. Now, in the opening pages of Angelopolis, he is next to her again, so close he can feel the air swirling around her wings, smell the sweet fragrance of her skin. He knows he must capture, if not kill, her. Then, before his eyes, Evangeline is abducted and Verlaine is left to hunting for her and her captors. As his search progresses, the unfathomable starts to reveal itself: Evangeline’s abductors have taken her to Angelopolis—a mythical angel paradise. Part historical novel, fantasy, love story, thriller, and mystery—all tied into one book that library patrons are sure to demand. It’s a must-read. --Alison Downs--This text refers to theHardcoveredition.
