To Reign in Hell

Stand Alone Fantasy Titles, August 2012

It is always immensely rewarding when you can pick up a book and be moved or have your perceptions changed in even the slightest way. Steven Brust takes the story of the revolt of the angels in Heaven and the fall of Satan and pulls them out of religious dogma and drops them squarely into the world of fantasy. Making the war of the angels his own, Brust tackles such questions as Where did God come from and how did He create Heaven? Why, and how, did the angels rise up against Him? This is not designed as an explanation of religious word but a fantasy take on the tale. Among the more commonly known characters, such as Satan, Raphael, Michael, the lesser angels Sith and Kyriel tend to steal the show.
