The Book of Eternity

Fans of nostalgic young adult angel fantasy novels will find themselves engrossed in the world of The Fallen and a human teenage girl. The Fallen plan to destroy the world. Only she has the power to save herself and the dark leader before they do. When sixteen-year-old Grey, a shy loner, moves to Sleepy Key for the summer after the death of her father, she finds herself exploring deep in the woods with her twin brother when an ancient manuscript—The Book of Eternity—falls from the sky. Grey curiously touches it, unknowingly opening up a mysterious, undiscovered world and igniting the fight for her life between two groups of powerful angels: The Surge, who keep order, and The Fallen, who wreak havoc in the world. Zale, the dark leader of The Fallen, tells The Surge that Grey’s soul is his. What started as a game, when he visits her on her balcony, quotes Romeo and Juliet, gives her clues to what he truly is, turns serious when he finds himself inexplicably drawn to her, and leads him to do what he is eternally forbidden to do. Unknown to Grey, Zale can only touch or be touched by humans once a month when the Copper Moon is out. When she accidentally touches him while trying to protect him from one of The Fallen, death begins for Grey and the centuries-old Zale. He is then forced to tell her what he is and that he thought she was “The One” whose soul he needed to open up Hell and begin the Almighty War. Only Grey can save them both while the Seven Orders of Angels are gathering to see who will take over Zale’s reign, sending the earth into chaos and disorder. Can Grey save herself, Zale, or their love before it’s too late? View Less
