It's all fun and games until somebody loses an angel.
Dean Robinson, Seventh Deacon of the Seventh line, found God. Literally. He was sitting in the basement reading a newspaper. It was awkward.
And with the big guy's help, Dean and his wise cracking crew of supernatural sidekicks somehow managed to snuff out Lucifer's misguided angel mutiny before it unleased a giant sized can of whoop ass on mankind. Cool.
But, as fate would have it, God then decided he was mad. So he summarily deported all the angels to Earth and decreed they would learn to coexist with humans, Nephilim, and all things in between. Or die trying. Not cool.
With the world on the cusp of an angel incursion as a power hungry delegation of eclectic uber beings sort out the new world order, Dean, Doc Kelly, and the crew race through time and space to find the only thing that can save the planet from literally falling apart at the seams. Oh, that's right. The planet was literally falling apart at the seams too. Total bummer.
Gilmore's fourth book in the Heaven's Dark Soldiers series brilliantly sets up the second trilogy with a delightfully fantastical storyline spanning all manner of interdimensional mischief and mayhem. With laugh out loud dialogue, unrelenting action, and an ever evolving cast of unnatural characters, DAWN OF THE AFTER DAYS will keep you knocking back pages as you flip beer. Wait, what?
