"She rose into the currents of icy air "
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER and global sensation, Angelology unfurled a brilliant tapestry of myth and biblical lore on our present-day world and plunged two star-crossed heroes into an ancient battle against mankind's greatest enemy: the fatally attractive angel-human hybrids known as the Nephilim. With Angelopolts, the conflict deep-ens into an inferno of danger and passion unbound.
A decade has passed since Verlaine saw Evange-line alight from the Brooklyn Bridge, the sight of her new wings a betrayal that haunts him still. Now an elite angel hunter for the Society of Angelology, he pursues his mission with single-minded dévotion: to capture, imprison, and eliminate her kind.
But when Evangeline suddenly appears on a twilit Paris street, Verlaine finds her nature to be unlike any of the other creatures he so mercilessly pursues, casting him into a spiral of doubt and confusion that only grows when she is kidnapped before his eyes by a créature who has topped the society s most-wanted list for more than a Century. The ensu-ing chase drives Verlaine and his fellow angelolo-gists from the shadows of the Eiffel Tower to the palaces of St. Petersburg , and deep into the provinces of Siberia and the Black Sea coast, where the truth of Evangeline's origins—as well as forces that could restore or annihilate them ail—lie in wait.
Conceived against an astonishing fresh tableau of history and science, Angelopolis plumbs Russia's imperial past, modem genetics, and ancient depic-tions of that most potent angelic appearance—the Annunciation of Gabriel—in a high-octane taie of abduction, treasure seeking, and divine warfare as the fate of humanity once again hangs in the balance.
