Return to New York Times best-selling author Nalini Singh's darkly passionate Guild Hunter world, where human-turned-angel Elena Deveraux, consort to Archangel Raphael, faces a new challenge that threatens the balance of the world.
Wings of silver. Wings of blue. Mortal heart. Broken dreams. Shatter. Shatter. Shatter. A sundering. A grave. I see the end. I see....
The world is in chaos as the power surge of the Cascade rises to a devastating crescendo. In furiously resisting its attempts to turn Elena into a vessel for Raphael's power, Elena and her archangel are irrevocably changed...far beyond the prophecy of a cursed Ancient.
At the same time, violent and eerie events around the world threaten to wipe out entire populations. And in the Archangel Lijuan's former territory, an unnatural fog weaves through the land, leaving only a bone-chilling silence in its wake. Soon it becomes clear that even the archangels are not immune to this deadly evil.
This time, even the combined power of the Cadre may not be enough....
This war could end them all.
Contains mature themes.
Also in this series: Angels' Blood, Archangel's Kiss, Archangel's Consort, Archangel's Blade, Angels of Darkness, Angel's Wolf
Archangel’s War is book twelve in the Guild Hunter series by Nalini Singh.
In the last book we where left on a cliffhanger ending and the fate of Elena and Raphael was undetermined. I would definitely recommend reading this series in order.
This novel has many different POV’s at the begging and they revolve around Raphael and Elena who are the main couple of the Guild Hunter series even though we do get other couples featured throughout the series. It was great to get the different perspectives, but it also slowed the story down.
Raphael and Elena’s romance continues to develop and bloom even though we’ve technically seen many HEA for them. I enjoying seeing their growth and development.
We are also treated to many surprises in this novel and I’d love to tell you about them, but it’s more fun and exciting to be shocked. As for the end; where it goes from here is wide open. I’m curious to see what surprises, emotions, and adventure Nalini Singh will treat use to.
Narration: Justine Eyre continues to narrate this series and I love how she brings out the voices and emotions on each of the characters. I will say I’m glad I listened to this novel and didn’t read it. I feel if I’d read it would have taken me longer. Why I say this is because; this one was slow at the start and listening made the slowness of the beginning move along. Things didn’t pick up until war comes and that was maybe 80% in. I continue to enjoy the audio for the Guild Hunter series and highly recommend the audios.
Rated: 4 Stars

About Nalini Singh
I’ve been writing as long as I can remember and all of my stories always held a thread of romance (even when I was writing about a prince who could shoot lasers out of his eyes). I love creating unique characters, love giving them happy endings and I even love the voices in my head. There’s no other job I would rather be doing. In September 2002, when I got the call that Silhouette Desire wanted to buy my first book, Desert Warrior, it was a dream come true. I hope to continue living the dream until I keel over of old age on my keyboard.
I was born in Fiji and raised in New Zealand. I also spent three years living and working in Japan, during which time I took the chance to travel around Asia. I’m back in New Zealand now, but I’m always plotting new trips. If you’d like to see some of my travel snapshots, have a look at the Travel Diary page (updated every month).
So far, I’ve worked as a lawyer, a librarian, a candy factory general hand, a bank temp and an English teacher and not necessarily in that order. Some might call that inconsistency but I call it grist for the writer’s mill.

It’s an enjoyable series. I’m going back and listening to the audiobooks and I like them as well. Hope you enjoy!
More of the series I want to read but have only started.
I totally agree with you on both points. Thank’s for stopping by.
I agree with you on the covers. Ya, I’m curious as to where things go from here.
Thank’s for stopping in.
Yea!! I love this series and loved where this one ended up – what will happen next?? On a side note – This series has some of the best covers out there, but the audiobook covers are not that good. haha
I did find it slow to start as well. It was like, so much build up, almost too much, then the explosion at the end. Nice review!
I love her Psy-Changeling series and many of the other blogs I follow kept saying I needed to try her Guild Hunter series. I wasn’t total into it until book 2/3, but now I like it. Still Psy-Changeling is my favorite, but I still like to read or listen to the books in the Guild Hunter. Hope you enjoy!
i have got to add her name to my reading list

I’m so far behind on this series. I really enjoy Justine Eyre’s narration so I may need to pick up the audiobooks to catch up. Great review!
Thank you Angela. I read the books, but have been listening to them the for the first time. I was debating on whither I’d read or listen to this novel. I had both from my library, but after seeing a few reviews about how it’s in multiple POV’s, I deduced to listen and I’m glad I did. It made it move, but it was still slow at the start. Took awhile before things acutely started happening. Hope you enjoy!
