Description

Madeline Black is an agent of death, meaning she escorts the souls of people who have died to the afterlife. Of course, not everyone is happy to see her. If obstinate dead people were all that Maddy had to worry about, life would be much easier. But the best laid plans of agents and fallen angels often go awry. Deaths are occurring contrary to the natural order, Maddy's being stalked by foes inside and outside of her family and her two loves. But because Maddy is Lucifer's granddaughter, certain things are expected of her.

Reviews

Praise for "Black Wings" by Christina Henry
"A fun, fast ride through the gritty streets of magical Chicago, "Black Wings" has it all: a gutsy heroine just coming into her power, bad-ass bad guys, a sexy supernatural love interest, and a scrappy gargoyle sidekick. Highly recommended."
-Nancy Holzner, Author of "Deadtown"
"Henry shows that she is up to the challenge of debuting in a crowded genre. The extensive background of her imaginative world is well- integrated with the action-packed plot, and the satisfying conclusion leaves the reader primed for the next installment."
-"Publishers Weekly "
"[F]ast paced, action packed and hardcore--breathing new life into the vast genre of urban fantasy . . ."Black Wings" is intense, dark and full of surprises."
-RexRobotReviews.com
"Readers will enjoy a fast-paced adventure with an interesting cast, especially Beezle, the gargoyle, and be ready and waiting for a future still yet unwritten. Picko
