Very different from Rice's novels, this vampire tale has it's own appeal. I found it seductive in many ways, from the hero's lost loves to the pathos in Liz's character as she lives with her burden of guilt. Slightly more in the romance novel vein than Rice, this one works well in its own right.

I highly recommend this book to any horror/vampire lover. It has a great storyline and is deeply interesting - I couldn't put it down!!!! I'm only a teenager but I have read many horror and occult books and this is a must.

I have read both, The Dark Paradise and these Fallen Angels. I loved them. I hope there will be another book about this family. I love Alex. Marion Emery 3 south Pearson St. Haverhill MA 01835

Okay. It was good, but not a major thriller. I'm sorry I spent the cash on it when I could have checked it out @ the library. But it is a rather good read and deserves a 7 at lest, which is what I'm giving it. It has no real plot and the characters are kinda weak, even though you find yourself falling into them at some points. But other than the few parts of action and sex, this books holds little for a vampire book fan.

I got this book as a gift from my sister who knew that I loved Anne Rice's vampire novels. I wasn't too thrilled at first, but when I finally got around to reading it, I fell in love with the almost magical scene and the well writen characters. It compares to Anne Rice's novels (which are getting kind of old and slow) and if Wendy Haley keeps up she just might replace Rice as our Lady of the Supernatural. These Fallen Angels was a great read, if it was just a little to short for my taste.

This book is nothing like any of the Anne Rice books (people think it is just because it takes place in the american south and deals with a vampire).

This book had very little in the way of vampire lore, and read more like a romance novel than a horror novel. The language was not as good as Anne Rice's either.

I, too was hoping this would read like an Anne Rice book, but was disappointed (especially after browsing the horror section of the bookstore for almost an hour, looking for a good vampire story - most of the books seemed really cheesy, based on the description). I am confident that Wendy Haley will never replace Anne Rice as the queen of the supernatural. The caliber of writing in the Rice books is much higher (at least when comparing them to "These fallen angels".

As an aside (and as my personal opinion), the Anne Rice's witch books (especially the first two) are even better than her vampire books.

I wouldn't reccomend spending money on this book. Borrow it or check it out at the library. Interesting though. Not at all like Anne Rice's books.
