Using Christian themes and theology as its basis, the battle between Earth and Hell goes on between angels and demons.Author Brandy Marks offers a lot for readers to take in throughout the pacy plot of this exciting and dramatic tale. Borrowing from the religious doctrine, she develops a dark and chilling vision of Hell that seems to offer little in the way of redemption, yet (something does change) bringing a surprising twist.I really enjoyed the dialogue and the way it uniquely characterizes each of the antagonistic forces, and the psychological journey of certain characters with unexpected striking plot twists that gave the novel another level of intrigue.Overall, readers seeking a drama where genuinely surprising twists and chilling suspense reign supreme need look no further to satisfy all their theological fantasy needs.
