Before I start the review I'd like to thank the author for giving me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I was really worried about starting this book, I as very interested but scared it wouldn't be what I hoped. It was exactly what I hoped and more! This book was such a good start to a series I'm really looking forward to continuing. The plot was well thought out and well executed, the characters were interesting and they progressed and grew as characters while we still show more got enough of a background to know who they used to be.

As for the writing, I really enjoyed it. There were a few parts where there was a lot of repetition, but it didn't bother me at all. I'm incredibly excited for the rest of the series. I highly recommend this book, and the entire series is currently on sale in celebration of the last book being released and I highly suggest you give it a shot, you won't be disappointed! show less

I never read reviews prior to reading a book and choose books based upon the cover and book description. Although, I rarely read fantasy novels, I was intrigued by this story line and decided to take a chance, expecting an adventurous wild ride.

The story grabbed me from the beginning, but let me down the more I got into the story - only because it seemed confusing and bogged down. I was intrigued with the the main character and her rebellious attitude and thought the story was going to be show more along the lines of a Harry Potter novel. Instead, I got a lot of descriptions of various "bloodline" tattoos without seeing how they are used, met many new characters and found myself confused at times, wondering where the story was going. The last several chapters cranked up the action, giving me a wild ride for a short period before suddenly ending, with mouth agape, I thought it ended way too soon.

Angelfire took me over a week to read because on a few of those days I lost interest in the story within an hour and moved on to something else. To this day, I can honestly say that I have never put a book away before finishing it...this one was a struggle to keep my record intact. I also noticed typos and added / duplicated / missing words in sentences throughout that were distracting and difficult to overlook.

I do give the author kudos for writing this tome - it takes a lot of sacrifice, dedication and many, many hours of hard work to publish a book - let alone a series. Thank you for the opportunity to read your imaginative tale, unfortunately, it just wasn't what I expected. I wish you well on the series.

I received a free copy of this book from the author on GoodReads in exchange for an honest review. The ultimate battle for the Earth will apparently be between angels and demons, at least according to most fictional literature. I figured Angelfire would be another average supernatural/fantasy book. Boy was I wrong and happy to admit it.

Angelfire (283 pages on the Nook) had me completely sucked in. There were some grammar and spelling mistakes that I was surprised were missed in editing. It show more didn’t have a slow start, but the author throws you right into the main character, Alyx’s world, which was kind of confusing. I felt like I was playing catch-up trying to figure out who people were and how things worked in this novel’s world. It was well worth the effort of sticking with it though.

The last time I was so completely enthralled in a story was in Panem with Katniss Everdeen. Frankly, I’m not really sure when or how it happened. I was reading along and next thing I know I’m done, it’s dark out and after 11pm. I had to show some self-control and not immediately buy the second book to continue the saga.

The story line was a creative take on well-known figures, Seraphim (or angels). If you go into Angelfire expecting traditional angels then you are going to get one heck of a shock. These angels kick some major butt and harbor secrets that rivals those of the demons.

I personally can’t wait to buy book #2. Unless you absolutely loathe the fantasy genre, I would highly recommend Angelfire.
