Interpretation Concering Books Plague of Angels (The Descended #1)
Nyx is Queen of Hell and ruler of the Angels who were banished there – the Descended. And when the rest of the Angels are called home, Nyx finds herself stuck on the Earth with the Son of God. To her surprise, she learns that he is no happier than she. God's son thought he was sent down to judge humanity. Instead, he becomes a sacrifice for a cause he does not believe in – their redemption. After his mortal body dies, the Son of God makes Nyx an offer: a new paradise on Earth if she will help him destroy humanity. With two of her fellow Angels by her side, Nyx launches a thousand-year campaign of violence, sex, betrayal and intrigue to bring down God's people and have them worship her instead. From the back streets of Jerusalem to the palaces of Rome, from the temples of Egypt to the Pope's bedchamber, Nyx and her companions work to destroy the worshippers of God. But not all is as it seems. And the Son of God has bigger plans than any of them imagine...Details Books During Plague of Angels (The Descended #1)

Plague of Angels is a captivating fantasy with a plot based on what we all know to traditionally be "Heaven and Hell". I was completely amazed with the imagination and detail that was put into every single line of this story! I was also impressed with the accuracy of the historical aspect which inspired the writing. The plots continued to grow with unexpected twists and I was feeling like I couldn't get to the next page quick enough. Any author with the ability to pull off a modern-day fantasyIm rating this at 4 stars because of the rating system. I would have given it three and a half. I will get into why further down below. First the positive. Kennedy, writes a brilliant story line, Jesus (or Tribunal) as a bad guy? I would have never thought to check that side of the coin. Sure why wouldn't he be pissed over being a sacrifice. Kennedy did a great job on the research of the story throughout history, or at least as far, I know he did. I'm not exactly a history buff, however he
I bought this book based on the Goodreads reviews. What a mistake. I should have read the preview before buying. After a couple of pages, I was wondering where all of the great reviews came from.
A very interesting twist on God, angels, demons, heaven and hell. If you are easily offended, and can not handle blasphemy, this book if not for you. It's a wild, evil fun read.
Holy Hell's Balls Batman! Most of the time reading this book... "I was like... WHOA." You know, like the song? Ok, maybe you don't. I digress. This book is pretty dark. I would not recommend this book for people who are: closed-minded, afraid of blood, adverse to reading about torture, uptight, very religious, shy away from cussing, or looking for a light-hearted book. You will probably be very disappointed. Trust me.If you can get past all of these, then I would highly recommend you read this
With a story line involving fallen angels, and plots to bring down humanity. The characters in the novel are interesting, and this book provides a different look at history. In the book the Son of God makes a pact with Nyx to destroy humanity, who he hates. Its an interesting twist in a story that many of us know well. But individuals who are extremely religious may find this book slightly offensive due to this twist. I really enjoyed reading this book because it is so different from the norm,
`I'm a creator of worlds with words.'John Patrick Kennedy starts his career as a writer with a deliciously controversial book. Brooklyn born of Irish ancestry, he seems to have inherited the Irish genes for wild tales and has the courage to make his own stories challenging to the conservative readers with such a flair for showmanship that the result of his courageous wanderings through myth, religion, and those oh-so-sacred stories that form our concept of a universe that makes sense (read
