An angel falls from the sky and crashes to the ground! Miriael, the Fourteenth Angel of Observance, has been shot down in the thousand-year war between Heaven and Earth. The young tribesman Ferren finds her lying in the grass. She ought to be an enemy, but seeing her there, unable to fly, his curiosity outweighs every rule and every warning. Richard Harland, author of the Worldshaker books, creates a whole new world of angels and apocalypse!
