Review of Dark Halo
5 stars
This was a really surprising book. By
the lovely cover art, I assumed there would be an angel involved. The surprise
is that the novel is remarkably multi-layered. It’s not “just” a paranormal.
There’s mystery, suspense, romance, heartbreak, life, death, angels, demons,
Satanists, friends, neighbours, strangers, wise individuals, shallow
individuals, and more. Certainly it is far more than I expected going in; in
some senses, this story is about “angelic evolution.” (Or perhaps, “angelic
devolution.”) Yes, Constant Readers, our characters do encounter what the Angel
calls “the devil’s army,” but it sure is nothing like we’ve been led to
expect. Yes-the Spiritual battle is
ongoing, but the surprise is, it happens frequently, and it’s not just in the
Heavens, but right here on this planet, and behold, there occur fatalities. In
any event, I raced through it in one sitting; it’s that intriguing. My heart
stayed in my throat the entire time, because I just never knew in advance what
would happen next, and who would live or die. So go get this one. This is a
stand-alone novel, but it would be wonderful as the first in a series, because
the imaginative reader wants to go on with the story.
