Book Reviews of The Darkangel (The Darkangel Trilogy)
Book Review: original
Summary: 3 Stars
this book cant be judged by its cover though it did draw my attention when i saw it laying on a book shelf at the library. the cover made me wonder.
the summary gives you the story but the adventure you have to read the book to get. it doesn't sound copied from another book or stolen from another fairytale.
at first it sounded like it was going to be a romance book, but it is really not. i would rather put it under "adventure". i liked that the girls journey was long and had a bunch of issues along the way. i was sure i knew the vampire's fate, but i was wrong. some pieces were predictable and some made me, like, 'oh, wasn't expecting that'. this is not your average fairytale.
i think adults would find it boring and too easy to read. but hey, it depends on the reader right?
i advise you to read the next two books in this trilogy if you like the first. actually even if you don't like he first you may find your self wondering about the fate of the vampire and his wife at night. you can likely pick them up at your library.
Summary of The Darkangel (The Darkangel Trilogy)
The Darkangel, a vampire of astounding beauty and youth, can only summon his full power when he finds his 14th and final bride. But for Aeriel, whom he kidnaps to serve his brides, there is something about him--something beyond his obvious evil--that makes her want to save him rather than destroy him. The Darkangel--Pierce's first book, originally released in 1982--was an ALA Best Book for Young Adults, a New York Times Notable Children's Book, a Parent's Choice Award Superbook, and a Booklist Best Book of the Decade.Science Fiction, Fantasy, & Magic Books
