    The Best YA Dystopian Fiction Series on the Market
  

*by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2014*

This book came recommended Goodreads via a friend who shares my love of paranormal fiction and romance. She claimed she read it in one sitting and that it was a must-read, so naturally I immediately went to Amazon and found it for less than $5 in paperback. So instead of ordering my textbooks, I happily dropped this into my cart and had it in my hands two days later.Now, I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again. I am a sucker for paranormal books that deal with angels. Sadly, many books in this genre are disappointing, riddled with weak plots, poor writing, or completely ridiculous love triangles. I was delighted to discover that Angelfall avoids all three of these problems, and adds a twist to the genre by setting it in a post-apocalyptic society. This end-of-the-world setting is fantastic because it makes sense, as there are multiple times in the Bible when God and his angels intervene and cause destruction as punishment (the great flood, the destruction of Sodom, etc). This book hammers down the often-forgotten concept in popular culture that angels are warriors, not cherubic spiritual beings who are meant to lazily float in heaven all day long.I applaud Susan Ee for doing her biblical and mythological research about Angels while adding her own imaginative twists. She expertly weaves in tales of Nephilim, the Daughters of Man, the hierarchy of angels, and other biblical tropes to form the foundation her world building, while adding her own unique (and sometimes disturbing) twists. She blends dystopian, paranormal, and sci-fi together and chooses her setting as the Northern California Bay Area, and as a California native I was jumping up and down with delight. So rarely are books set in California set anywhere but the beaches in SoCal, and it adds a level of realism to know where in the world the book is set, as so often post-apocalyptic books never really disclose where their characters are in pre-apocalyptic geography. Knowing exactly where they are lends a lot more realism to the plot, especially if you’ve ever visited San Francisco or the Silicon Valley.Ee also does a great job at developing strong characters as well. I was delighted to discover that Penryn shows a lot of agency for a female protagonist, without being emotionally unreachable. She’s relateable even as she’s shoving steak knives in her pocket and holding people hostage for information. The brief moments throughout the book where she reflects upon her childhood with her schizophrenic mother provides an interesting look at mental illness and the impact it has on family relationships. Penryn may not be the one hundred percent full feminist protagonist that many readers are still waiting for (for instance, there are times when I wished she would have spoken up more) but she’s a strong step in the right direction, as she’s sassy, resourceful, and never deviates from her main goal from the beginning of the text. Also, most of her dialogue is realistically hilarious:“I never kid about my warrior demigod status.”“Oh. My. God.” I lower my voice, having forgotten to whisper. “You are nothing but a bird with an attitude. Okay, so you have a few muscles, I’ll grant you that. But you know, a bird is nothing but a barely evolved lizard. That’s what you are.”For some reason that line had me in peals of laughter, possibly because this book kept me up until all hours of the night reading it.Yes this book has romantic undertones but it’s not forced upon the reader, and is secondary to the major plot elements (which is a realief because both characters have bigger issues to deal with). Raffe, the angel she teams up with, is witty but also realistic in his often cool detachment and business-like attitutde…which is a nice reminder that these paranormal creatures are not humans and should not conveniently fall head over heels for some ordinary female protagonist. There is an undercurrent of chemistry throughout the book that will probably develop throughout the next in the series, but there was so much other great, interesting, intriguing, and disturbing stuff going on that the romance isn’t the main thing that will make me return to the series.Also, a point of clarification for my rating: one of the reasons I didn’t give Angelfall a 5/5 star review is that some of the imagery is really quite disturbing, and I am not usually one who is a fan of the horror genres. Yes, it did add greatly to the dark, post-apocalyptic atmosphere of the book but I was taken by surprise because I wasn’t expecting such imagery from the YA genre. To me, it was even more graphic that Hunger Games (which may not be saying much, but I’m not a big zombie/gore/horror person). And while I’m sure some of my questions will be answered when I pick up the sequel, it does feel a bit mind-boggling in this book when you have angels alongside gruesome science experiments, cannibalistic demons and reanimated, stitched back together corpses…But it all serves as just more reasons to pick up the next one! However horrifying, I can’t not read the next one, so Ee has done her job at creating a strong readership for her series.Final Thoughts: I give this book 4/5 stars for it’s original yet historical take on the angel genre, strong and original characters, and dealing with difficult issues such as handicaps and mental illness. Don’t get me wrong, if you love romance this won’t disappoint, but it’s a subtle brewing tension rather than hitting you in the face with the obvious five chapters in. If you don’t do well with disturbing imagery, I might stay away or at least not read it right before you go to bed (a mistake I made that jolted me awake at 6am on a Sunday morning). This book is less than 300 pages and will have you finishing in no time as it’s writing style and short chapters prove it impossible to find a satisfying place to take a break from the story.Recommended for: Those who want a more realistic and graphic depiction of the post-apocalyptic world, those who appreciate a not-obvious and realistically building romance, those who gravitate toward darker depictions of mythology. For those who read and enjoyed: Daughter of Smoke and Bone, The Lux Series, Hunger Games.

    "I am not afraid of you, your kind, or your god."
  

*by C***T on Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2012*

"I am not afraid of you, your kind, or your god."Penryn Young lives in a post-apocalyptic future with her seven-year-old sister, Paige, and her paranoid schizophrenic mother.  While Penryn attempts to herd her family to safety, Paige is captured by angels and whisked away.  Desperate to rescue her sister, Penryn forges a tenuous bond with one of the enemy, Raffe, a de-winged angel.  Can he help her find her sister...or is he just waiting to turn her in?You know how all these YA novels these days are proclaiming to be the next Hunger Games?  Yeah, they're all posers, hacks, drippy romances concealing their naughty bits with shreds of dystopia and strips of the apocalypse.  They are more concerned with getting our heroine her two love interests than creating a real conflict.  They are more concerned with having our heroine gush over her beaus than have our couple have any real chemistry.  They are more concerned with the status quo than forging new territory, twisting the norm, and being unique and gripping.THIS is the new Hunger Games.  THIS is a spell-binding, page-turning, nail-biting, I can't stop reading and it's 3am in the morning and I have to get up for work at 6am book.  The characters aren't fashioned out of cereal box cardboard.  The romance isn't thrown together, like a Big Mac at Burger King.  The conflict isn't so pathetic, even an eight-year old would roll her eyes.  The dystopian/post-apocalyptic atmosphere isn't so poorly constructed that a quick glance could tear apart all the flaws, like a used car salesman.THIS book is frakkin' amazing.  I read it in a whopping TWO DAYS and most of that was NOT while I was flying!!  (I tend to read a lot more when I am shoe-horned into a window-seat for 3 hours.)  I tossed this book in my luggage, hoping it would be as good as everyone said...and when I finished it, 5 minutes into a flight, I had to take 10 minutes to sit there, gripping the book to my chest and figure out what the f@#$ I was going to do with myself now that A) I had finished the book and B) I didn't have book 2.Susan Ee, I am begging you...write faster!!Penryn Young is the kick-@ss heroine that tons of YA "dystopias" wish they had.  She is competent, caring, determined, strong-willed, and smart.  We don't need half the book describing her "sexy" fighting lessons with one of her love interests; she already KNOWS how to fight.  If you liked Katniss Everdeen, then you will definitely like Penryn.Raffe was amazing.  In general, I loved the entire deconstruction of  what being an angel entails (from them being always good to their sense of humor--or lack thereof!--to how they too have questions about God), but I definitely loved Raffe.  Somehow, he can be a snarky "bad boy" and yet you legitimately care about him.And Penryn and Raffe DEFINITELY have some chemistry, and I'm not talking about "I can barely keep my hands off you" territory.  They hardly even TOUCH in this book, and yet you STILL find that you have to fan yourself every so often.  THIS is how you write potential romantic couples, people!The story is gripping and interesting.  At first, I wasn't so sure about these "Angels killing humans for no apparent reason" thing, but then, I started to like it.  It takes what we expect--angels being good and sweet and looking out for humans--and twists it, making us wonder "ZOMG, WTF is happening?!"There is a journey in this story, as Raffe and Penryn have to fight their way to San Francisco.  And I LOVED IT.  There was tension, there was creepiness, there was spookiness, there was foreboding...every page, something new happens.  And while bits of the story go along the path you expect, trust me, the last 100 pages go somewhere I totally didn't expect.  And I still loved it!An important part of this novel is the post-apocalyptic setting.  And yes, it works.  We get an actual, real look at life, instead of vague "Oh, we can't read anymore" or "People are starving...somewhere".  No, we get an in depth look at this world through Penryn's eyes.  Civilization has been destroyed, gangs have arisen, people are so hungry and food is so sparse that the topic of cannibalism is brought up.  The world has changed, and Ee has shown us HOW instead of making us guess.And let me talk about one thing that many books (specifically, 
  
Shatter Me







  
  
    ) have done terribly: the description.Here is a sample from aforementioned book:"My eyes break open. Two shattered windows filling my mouth with glass."Here is a sample from "Angelfall":"My heart flutters in my chest like a dying bird."Which is better?  While I know that Mafi was going for a more, erm, "unique" description, honestly, I think sample 2 was better.  It was clear, it got to the point, and I knew EXACTLY what was going on.  I didn't need my decoder ring to figure out WTF was going on.At this point, I feel the obligation to make a few potential warnings.  There isn't much in the way of swearing or sexual situations (a few "da**s" at most, the women that approach the aerie are for the angel's *ahem* entertainment), but there IS quite a bit of gore/violence.  So the weak of heart, be wary!  However, unless you are VERY weak of heart, don't let this put you down--I hate reading about "gobbets of flesh", and I ADORE this book.After seeing this pop up all over the place on Goodreads, I added this book to my "To Read" list and when I found it in paperback on Amazon, I snatched it up.  But in the back of my mind, I wondered if it really was as good as people said.  I actually tossed it in my luggage more on a whim than really thinking I would get into the book.Joke's on me.  This book is TOTALLY worth the price of paperback (I paid $12.99).  I can't BELIEVE that major publishers keep churning out this crap posing as dystopian/post-apocalyptic fiction instead of picking this book up.  Do yourself a favor and buy this book--either paperback or Kindle.  You don't know what you are missing!Brought to you by:*C.S. Light*

    Enjoyable, but wish other aspects were fleshed out.
  

*by K***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 15, 2022*

I should disclose that I'm not a massive fan of first person books (which this is), but that is my problem and may have affected my overall enjoyment. Overall, the concept of post-apocalyptic fiction which angels is fascinating to me. I like Angels and if you do too then you'll probably like this. From the off we're essentially thrown into this devastated world and we just go. I think Penryn was a little too covienient at times, especially being on of those people that seemingly has every martial art under the sun. The relationship between her and Raffe also felt a little quick too. Personally I would've loved the build up to the angel invasion before it happened as the beginning, because anything to do with the angels is awesome. While I'd decided that I'd not continue the series the ending alone has been reconsidering that decision. Overall, love the Angels and the possible direction they could go, but not so hot on our MC.
