In this sequel to the bestselling fantasy thriller, Angelfall, the survivors of the angel apocalypse begin to scrape back together what's left of the modern world.

When a group of people capture Penryn's sister Paige, thinking she's a monster, the situation ends in a massacre. Paige disappears. Humans are terrified. Mom is heartbroken.

Penryn drives through the streets of San Francisco looking for Paige. Why are the streets so empty? Where is everybody? Her search leads her into the heart of the angels' secret plans where she catches a glimpse of their motivations, and learns the horrifying extent to which the angels are willing to go.

Meanwhile, Raffe hunts for his wings. Without them, he can't rejoin the angels, can't take his rightful place as one of their leaders. When faced with recapturing his wings or helping Penryn survive, which will he choose?

My book came in :)

I will be starting this sometime this week. It is going to be the audio version, so I have to finish the book I am in.

I'm enjoying this so far although I do miss Raffe. I think it works better when they're together.

I'm glad you're liking it so far Nicola!

Me too, Brandy - - I want to finish one of the other books I'm reading first and then I will start this one some time this week too.

Ok so I've made it to chapter 7!

I really like how (view spoiler)[they picked up exactly where the last book left off. (hide spoiler)]

Like you said Nicola, I miss Raffe too. I wonder if (view spoiler)[Penryn will ever tell Obi and the others what she knows about Raffe and his wings (hide spoiler)]

I'm done! I liked that it picks up where Angelfall ends too. There definitely wasn't enough Raffe but I was still hooked and couldn't put it down.

I can't believe we have to wait until May for book 3!

I just started it, but there was a Raffe sighting. Then I pulled in the garage and had to shut it off.

I'm glad I'm not the only one behind! I'll read more tonight when I get home. I couldn't get the audiobook fast enough this time so I borrowed the actual book from the library.

I'm glad you liked it Nicola! I know! We'll have to pick a new trilogy to read in the mean time. It'll be perfect timing for May.

I am about 30% in. The chemistry of this book seems off. I think Nicola and Lucy are right, it is the lack of Raffe.

We do! need a trilogy to read to put us through to the final Penryn book! I have a few suggestions:
Infernal Devices by Cassandra Claire
Pathfinder by Orson Scott Card
or Celestial Blues by Vicki Pattersson What do y'all think?

I actually have Clockwork Angel already in my overdrive queue. We can read that one this month even if you wanted to.

And yes - I miss Raffe too :(

I have it ready to go too. I'm game to start anytime after I finish World After.

Sure, works for me

Made it for chapter 36, 'bout halfway.

Craziness!

I am approximately half way too. Alcatraz

So I can't remember what chapter I stopped at last night, but GR says I'm at 83%.

I'm so happy that (view spoiler)[Raffe is back!! I missed him a lot. (hide spoiler)]

I don't know what chapter I am on but I was laughing at this line from......(view spoiler)[ Raffe! Don't talk, You'll just spoil my fantasy of rescuing an innocent damsel in distress as soon as you open your mouth.

I love that is showed both protective and playful sides of him. (hide spoiler)]

about 75% in on audio book

done! really liked it

done!!

WE HAVE A COVER!!!

Ohhhhh a cover!! I really like it.

This website (http://www.ew.com/article/2015/02/05/...) also has an exclusive excerpt... I can't bring myself to read it though as I don't want a spoiler lol!

cool cover, looks so tragic.
Nicola, I agree I don't like to read anything that could have spoilers. I learned my lesson.

So exciting!! I can not wait! out of all the series' we've read together, I usually have trouble remembering what happened in the last book but I clearly remember what happened in World After and can't wait for this!
