“Vampires, succubi, demon kings, and other bad boys of the supernatural realm get a lot of press, but where’s the love for our winged protectors from on high?” …Right here, as it turns out. Please note: In the interest of full disclosure, I have to admit that I found this to be one of the more inconsistently edited works I’ve read.

During a terrifying five minute time period, birds and angels start plummeting from the sky, leaving almost half of the archangel Raphael’s forces incapacitated. Shortly after, his consort, the Guild Hunter Elena, discovers a mysterious and highly infectious disease that impossibly enough only targets vampires. All over the world, other archangels are developing new and […]
