Guardians of Paradise by Jaine Fenn
3.0
It is thought that the Sidhe are ancient history, wiped out a millennia ago. Jake's sister has just been murdered by the Sidhe, and they are now after a old friend of his and her partner. Foiling the attempt on their lives, he helps them escape.
The Sidhe think that they are dead and they join Jarek in his crusade in fighting back against the desire of the Sidhe to enslave the human race again. As they traverse space, the discover a dark secret hidden in the most unlikely of places.
With chapters from her previous books, Fenn has taken them well out of their comfort zones and pitched them into a race for survival. The plot is not as strong in this one, as this is primarily about character development of the Jarek and the two Angels Nual and Taro, and the way that they deal with the perilous situation she has placed them in. They are all flawed in one way or another, which adds to the richness of the story too.
Great stuff. Next one soon.
