Archangel’s Enigma
Nalini Singh
Paranormal Romance
Naasir is the most feral of the powerful group of vampires and angels known as the Seven, his loyalty pledged to the Archangel Raphael. When rumors surface of a plot to murder the former Archangel of Persia, now lost in the Sleep of the Ancients, Naasir is dispatched to find him. For only he possesses the tracking skills required – those more common to predatory animals than to man.
Enlisted to accompany Naasir, Andromeda, a young angelic scholar with dangerous secrets is fascinated by his nature – at once playful and brilliant, sensual and brutal. As they race to find the Sleeping archangel before it’s too late, Naasir will force her to question all she knows…and tempt her to walk into the magnificent, feral darkness of his world. But first they must survive an enemy vicious enough to shatter the greatest taboo of the angelic race and plunge the world into a screaming nightmare…
Uncaged Review: It’s been awhile since I’ve ventured into the Guild Hunter series by Nalini Singh, and this book is book 8 in the series. Although this book is a must read in this series, the main focus is on Naasir and Andromeda. Naasir is other, not quite human, not quite vampire. Wild, loyal and dangerous. But what Naasir has is honor and loyalty, to his family, and the Seven of Raphael is his family. You will find out the secrets of Naasir, but I’m not divulging them.
Andromeda is a scholar, been studying in the Refuge, when they learn that the dangerous archangel monster Lijuan is planning an act so horrifying that Naasir is directed by Raphael to take Andromeda and try to find the sleeping ancient, Alexander. A lot will go wrong on this quest, even before they get off of the Refuge territory. And Andromeda holds her own secrets…
This is great addition to the series, and it’s a non-stop read. I’ve always liked Naasir in the books previous, but now I fell in love with him. Andromeda is a fierce warrior under the scholar exterior, but she shines in both roles. A fitting book that has earned a “keeper” status on my shelves. Reviewed by Cyrene
