false 6641654 1 In her waking life, Leianna is a 29-year-old single mother living in Philadelphia, but she is psychic, has had astonishing visions, and leads a dual, astral existence in which she is now reunited with Bael, her dark, mysterious lover from another life, 35,000 years ago. <P> More than love is at stake, for Bael is nothing less than one of Lucifer's followers, a fallen angel. Behind the story of their love is the epic of the Fall from Grace, which takes a new turn as an alliance between Heaven and Hell seems a real possibility for the first time in untold millennia. <P> Now Leianna, becoming Queen of Hell, will face an impossible task: if Hell itself is to be reformed, she must first redeem the soul of history's greatest monster -- Adoph Hitler -- and make him weep. <P> Can she save the damned? Should she? <P> Of Marilyn "Mattie" Brahen?s previous novel, "Claiming Her," critics wrote: <P> "Newcomer Brahen boldly reinterprets Genesis in this inventive SF/fantasy hybrid that begins as a realistic drama of a young Philadelphia mother, Leigh Ann Elfman, coping with a failed marriage, then moves into an otherworldly story of unfulfilled love across the ages, including more than one paranormal paramour." -- Publishers Weekly <P> ". . . a journey through an intricately developed universe based partly on traditional views of Heaven and Hell, but inventive enough to keep the reader guessing. This is another of those books that is particularly rewarding." -- Chronicle 6836124 10 4 2009 Reforming Hell 0 0 1 0 6641654 1434458717 9781434458711 0 0 0.00 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6641654-reforming-hell 0 0 false Thu Jul 23 20:10:27 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 23 20:10:27 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=6641654
