A horrifying secret rises in the aftermath of an archangelic war in New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh's deadly and beautiful Guild Hunter world...
The Archangel of Death and the Archangel of Disease may be gone but their legacy of evil lives on—especially in Africa, where the shambling, rotting creatures called the reborn have gained a glimmer of vicious intelligence.
It is up to Titus, archangel of this vast continent, to stop the reborn from spreading across the world. Titus can't do it alone, but of the surviving powerful angels and archangels, large numbers are wounded, while the rest are fighting a surge of murderous vampires.
There is no one left…but the Hummingbird. Old, powerful, her mind long a broken kaleidoscope. Now, she must stand at Titus's side against a tide of death upon a discovery more chilling than any other. For the Archangel of Disease has left them one last terrible gift…
My Review:
I really enjoyed reading this book! I just adore this series, and I was interested to see where this book would go after the events of Archangel's War. Because that was a big, honking book, with big repercussions in this world. This book deals with the aftermath of said repercussions, and it was fantastic to read!
This book is a little different from the previous reads, because it's not focusing characters who are in Elena or Raphael's inner circle. Titus and the Hummingbird are both important figures in angel society, him for being an Archangel, and her for art and her kindness. I really enjoyed learning ab out these two, we really learn about her past, and why she was shattered like she was. Though we still have the question of how old, exactly, is she?
Compared the last book, this book is slower, and not as grandiose, which is good, because not every book can be like that. It was a little strange, though, coming down. This book is slower, quieter, more about their relationship, though it does face the issues of the reborn, and the "gift" that was left. I really enjoyed all the various details that we learned!
I'm wondering, given the characters who have gotten books, and the ones remaining for the 7, that we're maybe going to get Aodhan's book next. Just the way that his situation was talked about in this book, and that ending makes me wonder...
Loved this book, it was amazing, and I can't wait to see where we go from here!
