Angelopolis - Tapa blanda

'Angelopolis is Trussoni's tighter and more engaging sequel to Angelology... Trussoni fires up the engine. Verlaine and his pack of angel hunters are far more entertaining and energetic than the tweedy academics of Angelology... the ending is impressively chilling, with its showdown in a prison housing thousands of angelic creatures, the Angelopolis of the title. Trussoni describes it in terrifying terms: a tightly guarded panopticon. And the book closes on a cliffhanger that sets up a whopper of a third installment.' New York Times

'This sequel to the bestselling Angelology encompasses Russia's imperial past, modern genetics and more.' Booktime Magazine

'Wow! Just, WOW! I absolutely loved this book and really can't praise it enough. It was evocative, captivating, haunting and had a very understated elegance to it.The storyline is fast-paced and convincing... Angelopolis is one of those books that I will read several times as I know it will take more than one reading for me to feel like I've extracted every last sip of story from it!' A Hell of a Woman

'A grand adventure, written in grand style, Trussoni's characters are real and almost tangible, with the same faults, failings and passions as anyone else....Angelopolis is fast-paced and exciting, with mystery and suspense, love, old feuds, and unreal creatures that would entrance humans if they could only see them for what they are. It is like the very best of a spy thriller mixed with the very best of a fantasy adventure. Time to go to in the ground, vampires the angels have arrived.' We Love This Book

'There were some great scenes with some of the more prominent angels and I loved learning more about the different types and hierarchies of angels.' Fiction is Stranger than Fact'

'The focus of the book is a real departure from the first one, the world that Danielle creates is so believable one almost begins to believe all this is going on about us and we are unaware of it.... a great romp!' --Lesbians of North London Blog

Trussoni's Angelology unfurled a brilliant tapestry of myth and biblical lore in the modern world as two star-crossed heroes were plunged into an ancient battle against mankind's greatest enemy: the fatally attractive angel-human hybrids known as the Nephilim. With ANGELOPOLIS, the conflict deepens into an inferno of danger and passion unbound. A decade has passed since Verlaine saw Evangeline alight from the Brooklyn Bridge; the sight of her new wings was a betrayal that still haunts him. Now an elite angel hunter for the Society of Angelology, he pursues his mission with single-minded devotion: to capture, imprison and eliminate her kind. But when Evangeline suddenly appears on a twilit Paris street, Verlaine realises she is nothing like any of the other creatures he so mercilessly pursues. He is sent into a spiral of doubt and confusion that only grows when she is abducted before his eyes by the society's most wanted. Verlaine and his fellow angelologists chase the pair from Paris to the palaces of St. Petersburg and deep into the provinces of Siberia and the Black Sea coast, where the truth of Evangeline's origins, as well as forces that could destroy them, lie in wait. Conceived against an astonishing fresh tableau of history and science, ANGELOPOLIS encompasses Russia's imperial past, modern genetics and ancient depictions of the Annunciation of Gabriel, in a high-octane tale of abduction, treasure seeking and divine warfare as the fate of humanity once again hangs in the balance.
