Jan 30, 2011 Deyara rated it really liked it

Great start to the series, liked this a lot more than I liked whatever the first book was in Psy-Changlings. I didnt continue that series but I will be continuing this one.

I enjoyed the angels and the societal elements we saw in this book, and quite liked Elena and Raphael, and Sara and Ransom and Dmitri and oh who am I kidding, I liked just about everybody for one reason or another. Sure, it wasnt all good all of the time, but did keep me hooked right til the end.
