The Angels Are Here by Patti Roberts
4.0
3.5 stars
Paradox: The Angels Are Here is merely the beginning. I can only now, at the end of the first book, truly begin to feel the immensity of the whole story. Although it begins in the past on a distant planet, it largely follows the story of Grace, a pre-teen living in present-day Australia. Although she believes that she is just a normal girl, all evidence is pointing to the contrary.
I was skeptical in the beginning. I found the prologue and first chapter to be difficult to follow, with characters I really couldn't even enjoy hating. I was greatly relieved to find the rest of the story to be wonderfully compelling.
Although I use the word compelling, please don't take that to mean that you'll have your socks thrilled right off. I found the story full of interesting clues to what is still to come in later books, but not one part of the book felt like the climax. The entire book was more of an introduction. I look forward to see what the second book brings to the overall story.
