Short description

A young woman discovers that angels are not only real, they’re fighting a war to control the Multiverse with her as their pawn.

Extended description

Long ago, a mysterious being known as The Lost Aetelia crafted an elaborate series of Watchtowers, along with their resident guardians, the Aetelia, to watch over the Universe. In time, they sent a select group of their own to Earth, tasked with watching over the fledging human race. This group used humanity to challenge the established structure of the Universe. A bitter war ensued, and these rebels, who had come to be known as Watchers, disappeared from history.

The time of the Aetelia – now known as angels – is returning. After a fateful night of violence, Artist Matty DiCamillo finds herself drawn into this world by a mysterious savior, who becomes a driving force in Matty’s new life.

The time of the Aetelia – now known as angels – is returning. After a fateful night of violence, Artist Matty DiCamillo finds herself drawn into this world by a mysterious savior, who becomes a driving force in Matty’s new life.

Both driven by and fighting the words of prophecy that lay out her destiny, Matty, her lover Kristy, and her best friend Daniel, follow this mysterious savior on a journey from Northern California to Las Vegas on a path that crosses through the boundaries of time and space.

As Matty struggles to understand her destiny, she discovers that her savior may not be what she seems, and that even the denizens of this twilight world have no idea what lurks behind the stage dressing of reality. Matty finds herself not only racing to rescue the woman she loves, but learning that she herself could be the cause of the Universe’s day of reckoning.

If this is urban fantasy, I’ll take more! I don’t quite know how to describe Matty. She seems like a mentally worn grunge rocker which fits her powers and those around her. I like the language, how the story is told, the different characters. This is an author to watch and I’ll be excited to see what he comes up with next.

Review by: White Sun Press on Jan. 22, 2012 :
You gotta love a fantastical, apocalyptic novel set primarily in Eureka, Bakersfield and Barstow California and ending up in Vegas, NV. Or at least I do. Having traveled those murky roads myself, I couldn't help getting a kick out of the familiar settings and believable yet fantastical characters that evolved out of the crossing of those worlds with the supernatural. While at times the world-building got a little too heavy and slowed the story more than I would have liked, I found the characters great, the narrative voice of Mattie the Circle K graveyard shift employee, artist, lesbian and supernatural badass in training to really carry the story. The action is also engaging and the cast of supporting characters a lot of fun with some great chemistry between them. Allen has created a unique and interesting world populated by colorful and likeable characters (and truly horrifying villains), so I look forward to seeing where this series goes.
