A Terrible Fall of Angels

Meet Detective Zaniel Havelock, a man with the special ability to communicate directly with angels. A former trained Angel speaker, he devoted his life to serving both the celestial beings and his fellow humans with his gift, but a terrible betrayal compelled him to leave that life behind. Now he’s a cop who is still working on the side of angels. But where there are angels, there are also demons. There’s no question that there’s evil at work when he’s called in to examine the murder scene of a college student—but is it just the evil that one human being can do to another, or is it something more? When demonic possession is a possibility, even angelic protection can only go so far. The race is on to stop a killer before he finds his next victim, as Zaniel is forced to confront his own very personal demons, and the past he never truly left behind.

The first in a new series from the author of the Anita Blake and Merry Gentry series.


PRAISE

“Wow! A Terrible Fall of Angels has it all—a terrific new character, devious twists, plenty of action, and one hell of an ending. Brava!”—Jonathan MaberryNew York Times bestselling author of Ink and Rage

“Zaniel Havelock is a great character, part tough guy detective, part speaker to angels, in a setting where the powerful beings from every religion aren’t just real, but actively messing with people’s lives. It’s a great ride. In a world where angels and demons walk openly among mankind, it takes a special kind of cop to solve paranormal crimes. Havoc is the man.”—Larry Correia, New York Times bestselling author of Destroyer of Worlds

  1. Absolutely loved this book! I cant wait for the next chapter of Havoc’s story. Amazing storytelling and great characters, keep up the amazing work.

    1. This book was AWESOME! I’m impatiently awaiting the next book. I fell in love with Havelock just like I fell in love with Anita, Edward & Merry!!

  2. WOO HOO! ANOTHER SERIES TO FOLLOW AND READ! AND IT’S BY LAURELL! It was soooooooo good! Never had any doubt, just excited to read another book by Laurell K Hamilton!

    1. As always Ms. Hamilton always brings me into another world. I’m 38 and sunshine I picked up guilty pleasures at 15 I have been hooked. Zaniel is among my favorite characters and I can’t wait for the second book! Thank you!

  3. Priceless… Best book yet and that is hard to say cause they have all been ” the best yet”!! Thank you for sharing your talent of story writting with us… Can’t wait for more of Zainel Havelock !!

    1. I did have a little trouble getting started as is was new and different from her other books. It reminded me of a pilot episode of a tv series, lots of explanations and backstory so you understand what is going on, but with enough story to make you look forward to the next episode.

      1. This book was awesome one of my favorites for sure and I have read a lot of your books, all of the Anita Blake series for sure. I was just wondering will there be another in this series coming out soon.

      2. Love Zaniel Havelock and the world of Angels and Demons! The book was amazing! When will the 2nd
        Installment come out! I’m ready and waiting for any Hamilton’s
        Books to drop!!! Thanks for sharing your wonder gift of world building with such wonderfully conflicted characters! Love them all!

  4. I have followed your books since I was 15 years old. Was that too young? Well, I started on Harlequin. So maybe I was too young.
    However, I was almost 20 before my innocence was stolen from me.
    Your books never corrupted me, but gave me an escape or reality that I never knew I needed at that age.
    I never stopped. After Harlequin I craved another book. I found the first 3 books that Anita began, and after I found Merry. I found two worlds that I could escape to when my reality was so dark. When all I wanted to do was escape my life, I found solace in your worlds. They were mine too. Every piece of work you have ever published I have had a part in.

    I am now 32 years old and I can’t wait until you come out with a new piece of art that I can get lost in. I seen you created a new universe. A new world to escape to and I rejoice in it. I will be buying it soon because I believe it is what YOU needed as an artist as well as me.

    Now I have not appreciated every book the same. I believe you to be real and I think you RESPECT a difference in opinion. Critique is the biggest form of flattery.
    Laurell, I just want you to know that we have grown together. This world has faced us both with so many challenges and neither of us have caved. I thank you, with the very bottom of my heart for giving me the escape of books.

    My heart, my mind… they would have both stayed broken if not for you.

    I Thank You!

  5. Absolutely LOVED this story and characters, please let us know when we can anticipate the next book in this series!

  6. I can literally not get enough of your books. It was different yet familiar and I can’t wait for the next book.

  7. Been a long time fan and this book, is what I live for! It actually hit home on a lot of things in my life right now. Mixed religion family, leaving one faith, martial issues, politics, new friends, opening doors and addressing past issues that you didn’t know were issues. Could not put this book down! PLEASE KEEP IT UP! It’s like she found a new Muse and they want to be heard!

    1. Stumbled on this book while browsing at the library. Best start to a new series I have read in a very long time! I am incredibly disappointed that there is no sequel ready and waiting so get to cracking Hamilton. I need my next dose of Havelock!

      1. Thank you for once again helping me find the words and representation I’ve searched for in my own life. This was a wonderful work, additive and well paced. I’m excited to follow Zaniel on the next adventure.

  8. Just ordered and waiting impatiently.. I really have been looking forward to a new merry gentry for so long.. it just left with a massive cliff hanger.. but hey Angel’s and demons is kinda more dear to me now

  9. Enjoyed this book. Waiting for the next in the series to come out. Zaniel may be the best main character yet.

  17. Loved this book and shared it with my granddaughter. My son asked if I read it and I told him “of course!” I can’t wait for the next one. When I first discovered Anita Blake there were at least five books out, so I didn’t have to wait to long before my next “fix”. Now I’m going to have to suffer!

  18. Any update on if and/or when we will be getting a 2nd book in this series? I’m in a book hangover after Slay but still hoping that we some day get the next book in Havoc’s story.

  19. Hi, it’s been more than 2 years since this book came out. I loved it! Are there any more books in this series planned?

  20. I loved this book so much I got “Angels Up” tattooed on my forearm. Thank you for this wonderful work of art. Can’t wait for the next one
