Summary: An amazing read!
Comment: I'm not an easy person to please when it comes to books. There are many fantasy books that I have started to read and put down because both the hero and the villain were too cliché and predictable or because the descriptions didn't meet my expectations. When I picked up Fallen for the first time, I didn't expect it to be the series that I'd be counting the days till the next book is published, but it was just that.
The characters are very well developed and evolve in unexpected ways throughout the story. Aaron, the protagonist, grows as he learns to understand and control his angelic nature.My personal favorite, former Powers leader, Camael shows great determination to end the violence and help Aaron on the path of his destiny. Gabriel, the Labrador retriever, is the much-needed comedy relief, but his loyalty is second to none. The villain, Verchiel, differs from the classical "Big Evil" of books because he believes that what he's doing is really the will of God. His determination makes him a very powerful character.
I think Fallen also sends a message of hope. The hope that all of us can be forgiven and can redeem ourselves. After all, don't we all want to forgiveness for something?

Summary: The Fallen
Comment: This novel is a must-read for any angel fans.
I assume that this is probably the first in a series which is why it took a while in the story to get the origin aspects out of the way.
Though the writing was slow on some aspects, the plot became very interesting very quickly.
While the premise is a tad cliched for any genre fan (young person fines out that he is the chosen one), the author does an excellent job in exploring the mythology and the world of angels. I found myself finishing this book in a little over a day.
Sniegoski does an excellent job in the characterization (to the point that I can almost forgive him for the big dumb talking dog)
I am quite curious to see where the story goes in the books to follow and am quite curious to see what fate is bestowed upon young Aaron Corbet.
Rating: 5
Summary: A Brilliant Read!!!
Comment: On turning 18 Aaron Corbert, orphaned since birth, realises that he is different, some might even say special. His world is turned upside down over night as his true nature is revealed, along with the destiny he never asked for - that will endanger the ones he loves.
I loved this book. It's 'unputdownable,' a compelling read. It's got fantasy, fighting, romance, humour and horrors, along with a whole lot more.
The Characterisation is awesome - I mean, who would have thought you could characterise a dog? - Yes, I did just say dog.
It's full of suspense and an ending that will have you yearning for more.
A must read! But don't just listen to me, see for yourself.
