New York Times Bestselling author Nalini
Singh takes us into the dangerous, haunting world of archangels…and a
love that is legend.
For thousands of years, the passion
between Alexander, Archangel of Persia, and Zanaya, Queen of the Nile,
burned furious and bright, seemingly without end. But to be an archangel
is to be bound to power violent and demanding. Driven by its primal
energy, Alexander and Zanaya fought as fiercely as they loved. Locked in
an endless cycle of devotion and heartbreak, it is only Zanaya’s
decision to Sleep that ends their love story.
Eons later, it is
the Cascade of Death that wakens them both. The passion between them a
flame that yet burns, Alexander and Zanaya stand together in one last
battle against the ultimate darkness. But even a warrior archangel
cannot win every war. Alexander’s scream shatters the world as Zanaya
falls, broken and silent…only to rise again in a miracle that may be a
devastating curse. For is it truly the Queen of the Nile who has been
resurrected?
Only one thing is clear: this is the last beat of their passionate, angry dance. The final song for Alexander and his Zani…
What I thought about Archangel's Resurrection
So this is the 15th book in this series. It probably wasn't the smartest thing to jump into it at this point, but I adore this author's contemporary writing, and thought this might give me a taste of her well-known and loved paranormal series. Getting involved in a long fantasy series is an investment of time, so I wanted to check it out before I was all-in.
This series deals with powerful archangels. This story tells the tale of Alexander and Zanaya, who are passionate, powerful, and incendiary in their love for each other. There's plenty of background to cover as they've been in love for years and years.This did make the story move a bit slow at times.
As with all good romances, there are plenty of hurdles for the lovers to jump over. There's serious stuff going on there, but I just had to go with the flow since I have not read any of the other books in this series so there were details that I most likely missed. I was intrigued with the story because the writing that I love in the contemporary works came through very well here.
Overall, I liked the romance and the trials the main characters faced. I wished I knew some more about this world, but I was able to follow along. There is a very interesting story arc I could see moving to closure in this installment. So if you are looking for a new fantasy series, this one might interest you.
