Angelopolis: A Novel

I had already begun reading Angelopolis by Danielle Trussoni when I wrote about Angelology and already knew I was going to love it.  It just kept getting better and better.  I would really encourage readers to read these two books in order.  There is so much background in the first book that you will want to remember for the second book.

The story of Evangeline continues with some very surprising twists in Angelopolis.  The story line delves into Noah, his sons, the flood and the fact that he saved seeds as well as animals from extinction.  A lot of the action moves into Russia, present and past.  Faberge eggs, Rasputin, and tsars Nikolai and Alexandra from Russian history are all important parts of the story. 

The mystery has deepened, rather than being solved, although we end this volume with a lot more information at our disposal.  My engagement in the book has continued to grow.  My burning question now is "When does book three come out?".  Just as Dan Brown's books have gained a cult-like following I believe you will begin seeing Trussoni's books on reading lists everywhere.
