This book is one of the best that I have read in my entire life. I haven't seen this concept before with Historical Fiction and it was entirely new to me, so I got hooked in pretty quickly. It was very intriguing for me to see how these characters interacted with each other, to see what they would do next, even if you are familiar with the whole story of the rebellion, Lilith/Lillith, Adam, Eve. It was interesting to see the author make it his own while also making those an integral part of the story.

It was also a plus that, during some points, I couldn't help but feel for Luciferael. It was maybe because I saw some parts of myself in him and we have things in common (like being the first born, for example). He's certainly one of the characters that you just can love and hate at the same time.

If you dig deeper, you also see the relevance of the story to the modern world. You see a reflection of how love is. You see a reflection of how people could be willing to give up those they love the most. One of the important parts of the story reflects the saying that "Experience is the best teacher" because Adam and Eve had to learn from their own mistakes in eating the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge.

You see a reflection of people in governments that are corrupt, that want to overthrow good leaders in an attempt to bask in the glory and the power that they want from their desired position.

You see the people willing to take you back despite your mistakes, to forgive you, willing to let you start anew. You could also see and feel as if you've been betrayed despite knowing what Eve and Adam did when they are that fruit. You see these things: you see love, friendship, hope, in the pages of this book... but you will also see that these do not come easily. You have to wait and be patient, and everything will work out in due time.

Now, one of the things that used to irk me the most was probably the notion of instant love between Jarahmael and Lillith, though as I read, it became very apparent that it was an integral part of the storyline and it also came to mind that not everybody moves in the same pace that we usually see in other books. At the very end of the book, I had learned to come to terms with it and actually was happy that they were together in the Seventh Heaven when the fall of man came.

Some of the writing could still be improved. Perhaps it would also be good to flesh out the other Archangels that are part of the Auxilium, and I feel like it would also be good to find more replacements to the word "said" to make it have more impact and make it more colorful in terms of storytelling.

Overall, a really great work and I enjoyed it so much! Other than those little technicalities, it was a great ride, reading this book! Kudos to Mr. Higgins for this wonderful novel!

P. S.: I got a free ebook copy of this book through the Booktasters reading program. Check them out on Twitter: @BookTasters

This was a good read. I enjoyed every single page and this book really shows the love that Mr. Bennet has for his children, although they think that their father was just trying to embarrass them. Sometimes, it is as it is that parents love their children even though the younglings are not able to understand what it is just yet. I honestly loved the book, and I would probably read it again for a refresher in the near future.

I haven't seen the movie in at least a couple years or so, but this novelization made it all come back to me. I admit, it was a little underwhelming in the sense that it's mostly how things went down and what the characters said and not much is said about their feelings or such. Though, it is still a great book and I still love it!

THIS BOOK!

I swear, it just hooked me from start to finish. I'm not even kidding, it's so good. The angst that occurred and the potential for more angst that this has left me is absolutely unbearable. It makes me want to read through the next one to know how the characters will end up.

I think it is the steady tension that one will feel throughout the book that keeps the reader on their toes and I absolutely love that. In this book, we get to witness Jarahmael become a leader in his own right, and I think it's been the most interesting journey because we can see how the author unravels the main potential that he has. It unravels the potential in all of us to take control and be level-headed in tough situations. And we should. We should think objectively, I think, in most cases in our life and we have to have faith. We have to trust that even though we feel alone, we aren't. There are people who are going to be there for you.

The parts with Lillith were definitely intriguing. Grief is such a terrible feeling and even though I am personally against what she has done in thinking that Jarahmael had perished, I understand. People deal with grief in different ways, although I can say that this is not a good way to do so.

Much appreciation to Mr. Higgins for providing me with the book, and a big congratulations!

A fitting ending to the trilogy of our beloved Archangel Jarahmael!

This book is simply phenomenal. For me, it encapsulates the fact that most people, when it comes to their families, they are willing to do almost everything. They are willing to go through the pain, the anguish, the hurt if it meant that they could be together. That was the thing that resonated with me as I read through this book - particularly the parts wherein Jarahmael became ever so determined to save his beloved Lillith and to protect his son Enoch.

The second thing that stuck with me as I read the book would be the quote "Too much power sitting on any individual or small group was dangerous." Indeed, in our world as of today, we find this to be true. There are those that are corrupt in their schemes, seeking power only to themselves. In our status quo, there are those who hold too much power, and yet they do not use it for the benefit of the greater good. They make promises that are only being kept as words and are never being put into action, and I think that it's a problem.

I admire Jarahmael because of many things - his determination and persistence, his kindness to each and every one, his desires to keep the members of his family safe. There are many things that he had to go through in this series, and it just makes me sad and also angry that he had to endure all of that.

I love how thought-out the story in itself was; and I certainly love the little references that the author has given us, especially in this book. Every detail was certainly hashed out very well and does explain some things that may otherwise remain vague to us if the smallest details hadn't been planned.

The ending was a cliffhanger that I would love to explore more if given the chance, and I have to say that the involvement of Enoch in this story has done a lot, as he is one of my favorites now.

All in all, an amazing book and you best believe I have recommended this to my friends!
