Helpful Score: 2

I really wanted to like this book but it was so poorly written that it was difficult to get through. I loved "A Kiss Before The Apocolypse" and couldn't wait to read the next ones in the series. I love the idea of an idealistic angel disenchanted with the politics of heaven and the war with Lucifer Morningstar. Remy's relationships are over sentimentalized and over dramatized. I don't like writers to play with my feelings. I think enough information should be given so that the reader can make his own decision. It just seemed like Sniegoski wasn't sure how to write this book. the stroy line is very complex and would have been challenging to write. He wanted a compelling look into why Remy got disenchanted with heaven and chose to be human over being an angel. I was never convinced even though Remy seems convinced. The books ends as a cliffhanger of sorts. I have all ready bought the third book so I plan to read it. Any writer can have one bad book so I can forgive this one based on the excellence of the first. However, if the third disappoints me, it will mean the end of my affection for this series.
