My Thoughts on The Angel of Evil
Kenneth B Andersen’s Angel Of Evil is the 4th book in The Great Devil War series and the darkest by far. The previous book, The Wrongful Death, ended on a cliffhanger with Satina being kidnapped. Without giving too much away, I can say that the story picks up right where The Wrongful Death ended. As expected, Philip defies Lucifer’s orders and goes after Satina in the Outer Reach.
The Great Devil War series started as a humorous adventure story with some dark notes in The Devil’s Apprentice, and as the story progressed, the books got much darker and the plot more intense while the humor ebbed away. This is not a complaint, merely an observation.
Characters
I feel that with each book in this series, the stakes got higher, and with that, the risks increase. This makes for a great character arc, and we get to see Philip evolve from a shy, respectful, good boy with a pure heart to a real devil embracing his dark side. In truth, it isn’t until Satina is taken that his dark side emerges. When shove comes to push, Philip let’s go of his humanity and embraces the devil within.
