Fallen angels, powerful demons, and the tainted descendants of Templar knights threaten to wage war in heaven and upon Earth—and only Sam Connor and his fellow Offspring can put a stop them.

This review is from: The Keys of Solomon: Book 2 in the Offspring Series (Mass Market Paperback)

After reading his first book, I was hooked and couldn't wait until Keys of Solomon came out. Unfortunately, this book did move as fast as Offspring and the ending left you hanging. I was disappointed overall in the storyline.

This review is from: The Keys of Solomon: Book 2 in the Offspring Series (Mass Market Paperback)

I read reviews that said this book wasn't really that good, and I find that to be untrue. I can appreciate the author's recap because it had been so long since I read Offspring. The action was fast and thrilling. I still have some unanswered questions like...who was Henri really? What happened to Malcolm since Elliot is dead? Did the End of Days happen? What went down in the Middle East with that particuliar Veil of God? Who has the keys of Solomon? AND FINALLY...WHERE IS GOD AND JESUS IN THE BATTLE?! I mean I still have other questions about Rikki and Falco, but I just think the ending left more questions than answers. LIAM JACKSON, uhm where is the 3rd book?
