Product Description

An earthquake shakes Southern California and sets the stage for the appearance of Aster, a stranger from a world far from our own. Miracles happen around him, spectacular promises are made, and wisdom flows forth from his lips. Aster says he has come to complete our knowledge, to explain our beginnings, and to correct our spiritual errors. He speaks of one greater than he who will soon return to the earth he seeded long ago. And the world is ready to receive him: politicians seek his advice, religious leaders wish to call him friend, scientists want to study him, and philosophers wish to debate him. But not everything is what it seems in Aster s world. Priscilla Simms, an investigatory journalist, is the only one with doubts. This messenger seems too good to be believed. With the courage of conviction and faith, she sets out to find the truth. It s a search that may cost her reputation, and maybe even her life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great story from start to finish, October 4, 2007
By Brian Reaves (Anniston, AL USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
After being a little disappointed in "Finder's Fee", I was thrilled with "Angel". Starting with a hopeless situation (a woman resigned to die tells her story so SOMEONE will hear it before it's too late). Gansky keeps the character of Aster ambiguous for a while before slowly showing us he has an agenda of his own.

Unlike the slow middle of "Finder's Fee", "Angel" never really slows down. The concept of an alien coming to earth to offer help isn't a new one, but the way Gansky handles his story makes it really unique. The ending is powerful.

One thing that's great about Alton Gansky is the fact that he writes every genre you can think of. If you love speculative fiction or Sci-fi, you'll really enjoy this story.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Great Book by Gansky, February 4, 2008
By James A. Nichols (Midwest City, OK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
Alton Gansky has to be one of the top writers around today. He writes every kind of fiction genre and also does non fiction work as well. This book would be classified as a science fiction type book but really it is more than that. The book starts off with a women(Priscilla) who is recording her last will and testament while in hiding. She then begins to tell her storyand how she got to where she is. An earthquake takes place in California and a stranger(Aster) comes after the quake. The stranger an eight foot all being from a spacecraft claims to bring peace and healing to all nations. He wants Priscilla to help him speak to world leaders and to be his voice for the public. Priscilla begins to have questions about what Aster is teaching and questions his teachings. The book shows how everyone is quick to believe people and to think they are doing good things for everyone. People are quick to follow new teachings without checking to see if they are the truth. I though the ending went a little too fast but then again the whole book never really had any slow spots. A great book I would highly recommend this book.
