I really enjoyed this book. I would have liked a little more interaction between Penryn and Raffe, but even without that I had a good time with this book and I am looking forward to the next one in the series.

Raffe was absent most of the book which of course annoyed me. Where was Uriel at the end? Also, I'm just annoyed with the huge open endings.

Read in one sitting. Total immersion!

How to evade and survive evil angels and horrifying flying hybrid scorpion-tailed creatures in the bleak landscape of a San Francisco in ruins?

Well, it's a hellish dark journey punctuated with unexpected moments of humour... crazy mom + scorpion + lipstick + hearts + flowers and I laughed out loud. Crazy mom is the bees knees and there is intelligent method to her schizophrenic madness. Penryn is badass yet not fearless but that doesn't stop her intense love and drive to protect her family and others. Stitched up, razor toothed, monstrous Paige shows growth and potential during this nightmare existence, and Raffe remains superior archangel warrior whose sole purpose appears to be regaining his white wings. And, so much action that rarely lets up.

And, don't get me going about semi-sentient angel swords... I'd love me a Pooky Bear!

I think it's safe to say I'm a massive fan of Susan Ee now and I'll read anything she writes in the fantasy/horror genres in future.

I found this one not as good as the first one but it was still good. I found the beginning was boring but after a few chapters it became fast paced and I just couldn't put it down and I tried not to unless I really had to because I just couldn't wait to see what happens at the end and then once it was over I wanted to read the third book.

I am usually very picky when it comes to angel books and it is actually rare that I will find some that I like. Even more rare that I find a series about angels that I actually like so Susan Ee is doing a excellent job keeping me into the series.

I highly recommend this YA angels book.

Darker and more twisted than Angelfall, World After took me into a very strange universe, in which Penryn had to prove herself again and again.
