Angels Blood




Angels Blood by Nalini Singh;
Book 1 of the Guild Hunter Series


I read several reviews of this book in Goodreads, and it was recommended to me. I was curious as most of the reviews were very positive, plus angels and archangels were a new subject to me.

As I was going into hospital for the day I had a quick read at the beginning of several books in order to find one I felt would capture me enough to take my mind off the situation, and found once I started this book I had to keep going.

I loved the characters, the action, the writing, the romance. This is one of those series where I started with a ‘real’ book, but tempted to change now to Kindle for the speed as I want more!! And I want it now!

The basic story is that a vampire hunter, Elena, is given a job by the Guild. She is agitated as the job is with the Archangel of New York, and his reputation goes before him, for cruelty and lack of concern for humans. As the summons asks for her specifically, neither she nor the Guild can turn it down. Elena is confused as he wants  her to track an archangel, and she has no experience in this only vampires. They work together and their relationship evolves and changes as their quest brings them together.

There is (to me anyway) a whole new bio for vampires and angels, which was interesting to me and gave the book an added twist. I mean angels are lovely loving creatures - aren't they? 

If this is your style, paranormal / supernatural with action and romance, please give it a try, well worth it.
