First there are nightmares.
Every night Ellie is haunted by terrifying dreams of monstrous creatures that are hunting her, killing her.
Then come the memories.
When Ellie meets Will, she feels on the verge of remembering something just beyond her grasp. His attention is intense and romantic, and Ellie feels like her soul has known him for centuries. On her seventeenth birthday, on a dark street at midnight, Will awakens Ellie's power, and she knows that she can fight the creatures that stalk her in the grim darkness. Only Will holds the key to Ellie's memories, whole lifetimes of them, and when she looks at him, she can no longer pretend anything was just a dream.
Now she must hunt.
Ellie has power that no one can match, and her role is to hunt and kill the reapers that prey on human souls. But in order to survive the dangerous and ancient battle of the angels and the Fallen, she must also hunt for the secrets of her past lives and truths that may be too frightening to remember.
4/5 stars
I loved this book! The only bad thing about it was that it had some parts that reminded me of Fallen, but thats not really a bad thing anyway.
And I can't even begin on how badly I wish that Will was really! He was just amazing!
But anyway . . .
There were lots of action scenes, more than I've ever read in one book. I kept waiting and waiting for romance, and once it was there, it was never enough. This book kept me on the edge of my seat, and kept me reading.
This is also the first book I've ever read about reapers, and it's probably an endangered species. I was scared enough about them, and then I had to learn all the types and how they fight. Don't even mention the ones who pretend to be people. *shudder*
I could have never guessed the ending, and now I'm stuck waiting for the next one.
