Synopsis of angel of shadow

D.H. Nevins hurtles you into a world of half-angels, demons and tormented love in this driving, dystopian sequel to Wormwood.

Half-angels, known as Nephilim, have all but destroyed the surface of the Earth. Yet for Kali Michaels, her life is now much more complicated than simply surviving. Grappling with her own powerful identity, she worries her connection to the world of Shadows could destroy those around her. And what if she hurts Tiamat Wormwood, the Nephilim outcast who has given everything to save her? Tiamat and Kali know they have no future—not when outside forces and Kali’s own power push both the humans and the Nephilim to the brink of extinction. As she fights to stop the inevitable, she is led to question who her real enemies are, and whether the ultimate threat may actually be herself.

Review

This might contain spoilers.

Like with the first book, the story felt kind of slow at the beginning even if the reader is immediately plunged into a semi-active scene. But as the tension builds and the story progressed it got more and more interesting and difficult to put down. The action-packed scenes broken up with the lull of the everyday fanfare were so enthralling, I was left wondering "what will happen next?" very often and I found myself on the edge of my seat many times because of it.

The characters are well developed and interesting, they won't bore you for sure. The main characters, Kali and Tiamat, are the epitome of star-crossed lovers which is absolutely heartwrenching. Honestly, these poor souls, there's always something getting in their way namely the shadows in this sequel to Wormwood.

The way it ended gave me the feeling that something big is coming in the third book of this trilogy and I look forward to seeing how D. H. Nevins ends this interesting story.
