And the Angel who led them out is about to learn what freedom costs.
Luminé has his kingdom. Two hundred thirty-five thousand Angels followed him across the sea to Luminare — free of the Lords, free of the Humans, free of every law but his own. He promised them paradise.
He is building something else.
While his followers grow restless under the rule they fled Heaven to escape, Oxana whispers of a weapon — the Golden Sword of the Prophecy, the blade that can take eternal life. The one thing that could make them equal to the Lords. Luminé wants it. Valkar, patient as always, is counting on exactly that.
In the Heavens left behind, Michael gives Jewel a reason to stay. Splendora carries a grief she will not name. Saphire hunts a monster through a sealed and silent Eden. And the Lords face a question they built the world to what is justice for those who were made to be free — and chose the lie?
Then the armies rise. And on a blood-soaked hillside, with the Golden Sword drawn and aimed at an unguarded back, everything the Prophecy promised begins to come true.
The sea will yield the Golden Sword.
Meanwhile, in the Land of Reform, a dead Manhattan mob lawyer named James — the best there ever was at freeing the guilty — is offered the one deal he can't a way back. All he has to do is open a door.
He should have asked who was waiting on the other side.
Judgment is the second volume of the ten-book Angel Sagas — the epic that began with The Breach and races toward the final battle at the end of days.
Perfect for readers of C.S. Lewis, Frank Peretti, and Ted Dekker.
