And time is running out for Luce and Daniel.
In order to stop Lucifer from erasing the past, they
must find the place where the Fall began. Only Luce can break the curse, and it
is her choice alone that will decide all their fates.
But as Dark Forces gather, great sacrifices will be
made in this final epic struggle . . .
In the fight for Luce, and for love, who will win?
The thrilling conclusion to the international
bestsellers FALLEN, TORMENT and PASSION.
The fourth and final book in the FALLEN series hits stores on 12 June 2012.
My thoughts: OMG, I just can’t believe it’s the end. In
this one, the group of angels have nine days to stop Lucifer from erasing their
history from the face of the earth, and that includes Luce’s and Daniel’s love.
To stop Lucifer, they have to
find the place where the angels fell from Heaven, but how will they find it if
none of the angels remember where it was? They have to be fast. Through these
nine days, there were “timequakes”, when the world seemed to tremble and split,
and then get together and become quiet. Those were the parts that really
confused me, because in those “timequakes” the past and the present get mixed
up and you get a quite big interrogation point inside your head!
In this adventure, Daniel and Luce need to find
three relics that are supposed to indicate the place of the Fall, but it won’t
be easy – nothing is easy for those two – and they have to be strong one more
time for their love.
When I read the synopsis, I saw
that Luce might be arranged to be with another person instead of Daniel. Well,
I won’t tell who it is, but thing is that he – the men – was in love with her
and still have feelings for her. She needs to find out who she really is – she isn’t just a regular
girl, otherwise she wouldn’t see the Announcers and wouldn’t reincarnate over
and over again – in order to save not only the one she loves, but all of her
friends.
One last decision has to be
made, and Luce might be the one to tip the scale between Heaven and Hell. But
who or which side will she choose? Her choice may have a high price. Is she
willing to sacrifice it in order to be together with Daniel?
This reading was a real joy to
me, not only because of its story – because I absolutely love angels and
romance – but of its turnings. You get to see a whole different view of the
fallen angels that turned to Lucifer’s side, of the Outcasts, and even of the
Throne – Heaven – itself. The ending was the cutest thing ever, and if I were
Lauren Kate, I would have picked this very ending.
There were a few things that
really interested me: Cam’s love, Arriane’s love. The author, during the
novels, never wrote about it, but I believe that it might have something in
that extra book, Fallen in Love, that may answer these questions.
Finally, I have to wrap this up
with the book’s cover. Just like the others covers, this one has its dark
beauty, and I absolutely loved it – from a girl that adores Tim Burton’s work
and loves skeletons, it is quite predictable. I hope you all get the chance to
read this book. I always thought that Luce was a girl that took Daniel for
granted – a little – but this last one showed me that she can have some guts to
fight for him. And that no matter what, they will always find each other – (SPOILER!) even if they forget
about their history together.
