Δεύτερη ανάγνωση και κατεβάζω ένα αστεράκι. Μου άρεσε πολύ, αλλά θεωρώ ότι έτσι θα αδικήσω μερικά άλλα από τη σειρά που μου άρεσαν λίγο πιο πολύ!

***********************************


I have to say that Gena Showalter knows how to keep my interest! ! This is the first story from the Angels of the Dark series and I’m sure that this series will be one of my favorites. If you expect something like the Lords of the Underworld, think again! I love LOTU but this book was something else. More dark and with more complicated characters this book was better from what I was expecting.

We knew Zacharel from the LOTU series but here we learn his story. He is an angel but very different from what we know about angels. He is a step before the Fall because he doesn’t care about humans and his Deity, in order to give him a last chance, make him leader of a group of other angels like him. It’s easy to realize that in this series will be too many tormented heroes! So, Zacharel at first is a cold-hearted bastard who wants only to kill demons and he doesn’t care if he’ll kill some humans in the process. Also, he is extremely arrogant and very fierce as a leader. But then, Annabelle comes to his life and Zacharel after thousands of years comes to know what love is. He isn’t cold because he is a bad person. He is distant because he lost a long time ago the only person he loved, his brother. I don’t want to say more because it will be a spoiler! The truth is the I really liked Zacharel. He is hard man to live with but he’s strong, brave and honest. He is determined to do the right thing and, although he doesn’t admit it, he wants the best for all the angels in his army. Also, I loved the way he learns to love Annabelle and how willing he is to learn about human relationships.

I liked very much Annabelle but I have to admit that she was a very unlucky person in her life so far. It’s not easy to be accused of murdering her parents and after four years in an asylum to learn that angels and demons exist and they are fighting for her soul. But it’s amazing how soon she recovered from the shock! She is a very strong person. She suffered a lot and she recovered fast. She is smart and witty and I loved that she is so different from Zacharel because this way they complete each other!

I liked the story! It was just as dark as I want a paranormal romance to be and the secondary characters are so interesting that now I want so much the next book! Koldo, Thane, Xerxes and Bjorn are some of the characters that I want to learn more about and I can’t wait for the next book!
