Angelslayer

September 15, 2008
Giants walk the face of the Earth and Nephilim, the progeny of a fallen angel and a human, feed on the blood of humans. From their great city of Etlantis, they aim to rule the world, yet they also war with the Watchers, angels of Light who seek to prevent the world from falling into darkness. Drawn into this war, a human sea captain plays a desperate game to save his son, beginning a conflict that will forever change the planet. This new series launch by the author of "Tolteca" depicts a struggle between the sons of angels and the men and women who would be known as Angelslayers. Wright's inventiveness in bringing to life legends of an earlier apocalypse results in a first-rate fantasy that belongs in most libraries.
