Reviews

[Mike · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was really helpful in researching a novel that I'll probably never finish. But I did find out a lot more about angels than I ever had any clue about before.

I love this learning about the different Angels

A little knowledge for those of you trying to skirt around the Big Read.

[Michael · Rating 4 out of 5]

Mixes folklore and Scripture. An interesting book arranged like an encyclopedia.
