My favorite book
My favorite book
so far is actually a book series, one of which is the book “A Madness of
Angels” and “by Kate Griffin, based in modern London filled with magical
beings. It is about a guy who wakes up finding himself in his room after he has
just been killed (resurrection), but he is no longer the same person but two
people fused together. Half electric angel, which are beings that live within
the telephone wires as pure electricity and half Jonathon smith, whose body the
angel has come to inhabit. He soon finds out that he has been gone from the
earth for two whole years and everyone believes he is dead. Their main goal is
to try to find out who killed Jonathon (attacked him). He embarks on a journey
in which he encounters old friends and enemies that he must defeat to find out
who had killed him. He makes new acquaintances and together they finally find
out exactly who had killed him many years ago, it was his old teacher or his
shadow. They believe when a person starts to die a part of them tries to hang
on to life and sometimes their shadow becomes that evil that wants to keep
alive and the reason they attacked him before was because they wanted to get
the electric blue angels on to the earth so that the shadow can eat and obtain
all of the energy the angel inside of Jonathan has. He defeats the shadow in
one last heroic stand but loses a woman who he loves.
The way the
author writes the book is much like modern time London, but in it adds the old
mythic beliefs of magical and sorcery. There are to three other book in the
series called the “Midnight Mayor”, “The Neon Court” and the “Redemption of
Jonathon Swift”. I am looking forward to reading the whole series. I am already
half way through the second and I have the third book in my possession, but the
last one won’t be released till later this year.
