Aodhan: *banging a pen on the table in frustration*

Illium: Stop that! How would YOU feel if I banged you on the table?

Aodhan: I-

Aodhan: I don't know the correct answer to that question.

Title: Archangel's Lineage (Guild Hunter #16

Author: Nalini Singh

Genre/s: romance, urban fantasy

Content/Trigger Warning/s: depictions of earthquakes and other natural disasters, grief

Summary (from author's website): Raphael and Elena are experiencing their first ever year of true peace. No war. No horrors of archangelic power. No nightmares given flesh. Until…the earth beneath the Refuge begins to tremble, endangering not only angelkind’s precious and fragile young, but the very place that has held their most innocent safe for eons.

Amid the chaos, Elena’s father suffers a violent heart attack that threatens to extinguish their last chance to heal the bonds between them and make sense of the ruins of their agonizing shared history.

Even as Elena battles grief, Raphael is torn from her side by the sudden disappearance of an archangel. But worse yet is to come. An Ancestor, an angel unlike any other, stirs from his Sleep to warn the Cadre of a darkness so terrible that it causes empires to fall and civilizations to vanish.

This time, even the Cadre itself may not be able to stop a ticking clock that is counting down at frightening speed…

Spoiler-Free Review: Well, that was something! Sadly, I have to say that this isn’t in my top five books in this series. The plot is pretty straightforward even with the MacGuffin at the heart of said plot, and it just hasn’t got the same amount of depth or interest as the plots of previous books.

But what really makes this book is what’s going on with the characters, especially Elena and her having to confront the mortality of those nearest and dearest to her. Given the ten-year time-skip a lot of characters who used to be children are now grownups, and it was great getting to check in with them again to see how they were getting on with their lives. It was those moments with Elena, where she was coming to grips with their mortality, that were the best parts of this book.

Also interesting were the bits involving Vivek, the hunter who was made into a vampire at some point in the previous books in the hopes that it would cure his disabilities. This book links him with a brand-new character in the series, and I am looking forward to seeing their connection develop and progress in upcoming books.

Speaking of new characters, another one is introduced in this novel that adds a whole new spin to the history of angelkind, and answers some lingering questions about the Legion as well. I’m not sure where Singh is going to take this series after this book, but at the very least I know it’ll be somewhere interesting, all things considered.

Overall, this was a pretty fun read, though not for its main plot. Instead, the best parts were in the side plots involving Elena, whose reckoning with mortality and family is always a fascinating thread and gets really explored in this novel. Vivek also gets some time to shine, and it’ll be really interesting to see where his story goes. That being said, this book introduces a whole new angle to the long distant past of angelkind, and sets the stage for some very interesting happenings in the future, which I am definitely looking forward to.

"When I was a girl, I thought love meant high romance and great drama, but now I understand that love that lasts is a constellation of small kindnesses."

From Archangel's Resurrection by Nalini Singh.

[ae-neon]

SJM pulls a lot of inspiration from lots of places some well done and others maybe less so but this one has always bothered me:

A centuries old winged warrior

Works for a powerful sovereign who also has wings and his name starts with an R

Uses shadows as his unique power

Experienced isolation for years as a child

Power to hear whispers that allows him to know things most people don't

A singer of one sort or the other

Good at reading people

A little more detached than his brothers

Quiet, stoic, intelligent

Carries a unique sword/dagger

Hidden but volatile temper

Daddy issues because his father was a monster

Craves physical contact with others but is scarred by their past

Works as a spymaster

Did you guess Azriel? Well... Meet Jason.

A character in Nalini Singh's Guild Hunter series. An actually diverse urban fantasy series about angels and vampires.

Here's an easier one:

A short, Asian coded woman

Considered ancient and terrifying even to other immortals

A unique taste for blood/gore

Detached from "humanity"

Has a slight soft spot for the male lead who she sees and respects as powerful?

Amren? No, Lijuan. Another character in the same series.

This one you'll definitely recognize:

A female hunter gets swept up into a world of immortal creatures which have always existed next to her own.

The male lead is a powerful winged warrior who is the sovereign of a territory, he's also got unique powers that allows him to read and destroy minds

If you read it I'm sure you'll begin to see how Rhysand resembles Raphael the Archangel and Feyre the hunter resembles Elena the hunter. All of this from the same series. The last two can be argued as good examples of inspiration but Jason and Lijuan....

Dmitri, lovingly: How is the most beautiful person in the world doing?

Honor, just as lovingly: I don't know. How are you doing?

Illium, in the back of the room: I'm doing great!

Thanks, @justanotherghostling

I truly cannot wait to start Nalini Singhs Psy Changeling Series

Like you don’t understand I am absolutely obsessed with the Guild Hunter series!!!! It’s right up there with ACOTAR for me and as a plus the fandom isn’t toxic!!

So the fact that she has another series I haven’t read yet…and it’s like 30 books!!!!

Don’t threaten me with a good time!!!

November cannot come fast enough my TBR is creaking under its weight.

[romanticatheartt]

I'm reading Guild Hunters series and I'm on book two. I'd say I see the similarity between acotar and this series but the whole insta-love trope of the main couple is so...

Like what do you mean you fell in love less than a week? I know it's a fantasy and anything is possible but-

Also this part???? *spoilers for Archangel's Kiss*
