Feeling the Vibes

Angels Unlimited #11

by Annie Dalton

With her inner angel in disorder, Mel is confined to the Agency's headquarters, where she helps out at the Divine nursery. While there, she discovers that calm little Obi will soon be leaving the school and is destined to become a great spiritual leader on Earth. Mel knows she must accompany him on his dangerous journey, but suddenly something scares Obi, and he vanishes. Mel and her friends know the little boy is in India, but nobody knows exactly where. On a mission that is both illegal and dangerous, the angels must travel across India--and through time--until they track down Obi.

About the author

Annie grew up as an only child in the English countryside during the 1950s. Her father was not always around but when he was, he would tell her fantastical stories, often with her as the principal character. Annie missed him and his stories, which led her to the fantasy section at her local library, thus sparking life-long love of fiction.

After undertaking jobs such as waitressing, cleaning and factory work, Annie went on to study at University of Warwick and soon started writing.

Annie lives in Norfolk. She has three children, Anna, Reuben, and Maria (the inspiration for the first “Angels Unlimited” book, “Winging It”) and two grandchildren, Sophie and Isabella.

You know, I think I have to compare this series to the Maximum Ride books. They're so, so different on the surface of it, but that series tries to make Big Statements About The World too, especially in the later books. And it's really not great. I read those as a teen, in the target audience, and they seemed trite and preachy and all the messages seemed painfully out of place. They went from "ooh, evil scientists and DNA experiments!" to "YOU MUST SAVE THE WORLD!" and then whiplashed into "You must save the world specifically via ending global climate change!" with some mind control and evil robots thrown in for giggles. And these manage to evolve just beautifully from "time travel is real and we're gonna help people!" to "we're gonna help people on a bigger scale" to "oh my god what is humanity doing to the place, how can we help there?" and it's impressively not preachy! I'm delighted.

I love Obi! I'm so glad we get learn more about Buddhism, and see his different lives and help him bring peace before accepting his destiny this time around. I'm also really happy to see the development between Reuben and Mel (long time coming). Definitely a favorite within the series.

Denne bog er et hurtigt læs. vi tager her med Mel til Indien. Der er en udvikling i Mel i denne bog. det er som om hun begynder at blive mere voksen, men stadig være sig selv.

Hvis man kan lide de andre bøger i serien så er denne også et godt læs.

Hard hitting

It is a great, emotional, heart-wrenching story. Loved every minute of it. I couldn't put it down. I don't want the series to end!

Loved this when I was younger, definitely on the younger side of YA.

NOOOOOOOOO. I'VE RUN OUT OF BOOKS! I might have to get my dad to take me to a bookstore tomorrow... Wow. This book was good. Not quite a favourite, but it was still good.

I cried. At the end, when Mel started crying, I also started crying. What was the deal with that Creation Angel? Who/What is he? Is he like a silent brother? Cause that's the sort of vibe I'm getting from his description. And what happened at the end? Why does Mel have to save the world? AND I RECKON REUBS HAS A CRUSH ON MEL!!! He he. Yeah.

I wanna go to the bookstore and get Living the Dream tomorrow, but IDK if I'll get a chance...

My favourite of the series, oddly enough! I found it very interesting because I don't know squat about India and its history, and very little about its present.
