A solid start to a trilogy. I purchased this to give out to the truck or treaters and then decided to read it, just finished it tonight. It starts out pretty slow, but picks up as we learn more about the prophecy. I have added the next two books to my wishlist.

So good, so good, so good! I cannot wait to pick up the next book in the trilogy. This concept was really novel, and I'm fascinated by the depth of the history and research in this book. Alice is an amazingly written villain, like truly so creepy and so heartwrenchingly childlike at the same time. I can't wait to see how the relationship between the two of them plays out as the prophecy progresses and as she continues to be steeped in Samael's influence. There was so much that I didn't see coming, even when it was seeded right from the get.
