(back cover) What are angels? Are they loving, winged messengers of heaven, peaceful, caring beings spreading love? Or are they mighty warriors, fearsome and ferocious? Are they to be revered or simply feared? From guardian angels and fallen angels to the Angel of Death, here you'll find all manner of angels and discover their place in the heavenly host. Learn the story of the attempt by Lucifer to seize God's throne, and the subsequent War in Heaven; the ancient story of Tobit and the angel; plus contemporary tales of remarkable human encounters with angels. Meet the archangels; Metatron, the highest ranking archangel; Michael, the warrior angel; Gabriel, the supreme messenger; Raphael, the great healer; and Uriel, the carrier of wisdom. With them, discover the cherubim and seraphim, who sit at the foot of God's throne and are powerful protectors of the Lord.

Fallen Angels by Walter Dean Myers is a young adult novel about seventeen-year-old Richie Perry, a Harlem teenager who volunteers for the Army when unable to afford college and is sent to fight in the Vietnam War. Perry and his platoon—Peewee, Lobel, Johnson, and Brunner—come face-to-face with the Vietcong, the harsh realities of war, and some dark truths about themselves. A thoughtful young man with a gift for writing and love of basketball, Perry learns to navigate among fellow soldiers under tremendous stress and struggles with his own fear as he sees things he’ll never forget: the filling of body bags, the deaths of civilians and soldier friends, the effects of claymore mines, the fires of Napalm, and jungle diseases like Nam Rot. Available as an e-book for the first time on the 25th anniversary of its publication, Fallen Angels has been called one of the best Vietnam War books ever and one of the great coming-of-age Vietnam War stories. Filled with unforgettable characters, not least Peewee Gates of Chicago who copes with war by relying on wisecracks and dark humor, Fallen Angels “reaches deep into the minds of soldiers” and makes “readers feel they are there, deep in the heart of war.” Fallen Angels has won numerous awards and honors, including the Coretta Scott King Award, an ALA Best Book for Young Adults, a Booklist Editors Choice, and a School Library Journal Best Book. Fallen Angels was #16 on the American Library Association’s list of the most frequently challenged books of 1990–2000 for its realistic depiction of war and those who fight in wars.

"Did rebel angels take on human bodies to fulfill their lust for the “daughters of men”? Did these fallen angels teach men to build weapons of war? That is the premise of the Book of Enoch, a text cherished by the Essenes, early Jews, and Christians but later condemned by both rabbis and Church Fathers. Elizabeth Clare Prophet examines the controversy surrounding this book and sheds new light on Enoch’s forbidden mysteries. She demonstrates that Jesus and the apostles studied the Book of Enoch and tells why Church Fathers suppressed its teaching that angels could incarnate in human bodies. Fallen Angels and the Origins of Evil takes you back to the primordial drama of Good and Evil, when the first hint of corruption entered a pristine world—earth. Contains Richard Laurence’s translation of the Book of Enoch, all the other Enoch texts (including the Book of the Secrets of Enoch) and biblical parallels."

But help was on its way, help from the most unlikely sources ....

A New York Times bestseller From the author of the international bestseller Girl With A Pearl Earring and At the Edge of the Orchard, Tracy Chevalier once again paints a distant age with a rich and provocative palette of characters. Falling Angels follows the fortunes of two families in the emerging years of the twentieth century in England, while the Queen's death reverberates through a changing nation. Told through a variety of shifting perspectives—wives and husbands, friends and lovers, masters and their servants, and a gravedigger's son—Falling Angels is graced with the luminous imagery that distinguished Girl With a Pearl Earring, Falling Angels is another dazzling tour de force from this "master of voices" (The New York Times Book Review).

Modern believers may be tempted to look upon angels as one of the more fanciful elements of Scripture, but this illuminating and entertaining collection of angel stories from the Bible shows that there are just too many angels for them to be metaphorical, allegorical, or unimportant.
So that children will come to know and learn to revere angels, Marigold Hunt explains what angels are (and are not!) and gathers here in one volume most of the stories of angels in the Bible, including exciting tales of:
The fallen angels, beginning with the devil himself, tempting Adam and Eve The angel who barred the gates of Eden so Adam and Eve could never enter again The angels who announced that Sara, Abraham’s aged wife, would have a baby The angels who tried to save Lot from destruction with the city of Sodom The angel who stayed Abraham’s hand as he was about to sacrifice his son Isaac The angels in Jacob’s dream who climbed the stairway to Heaven The angels who saved Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago from the fiery furnace The angel Raphael, who shielded Tobias from death, and protected his wife Sara The angels at the Ascension who chided the apostles for staring at the sky The angel Gabriel, who foretold the birth of Jesus and John the Baptist The choirs of angels who sang above Bethlehem when Jesus was born The angel who carried food to Daniel when he was imprisoned in the lion’s den The angel who freed Peter from prison, and, of course: The countless angels who fill the marvelous pages of the Book of RevelationChildren will be charmed by these exciting tales.
