Book Beginning: Archangel's Consort by Nalini Singh

Book Beginnings on Friday is now hosted by Katy at A Few More Pages 


Anyone can participate; just share the opening sentence of your current read, making sure that you include the title and author so others know what you're reading. 


If you like, share with everyone why you do, or do not, like the sentence.


My beginning is from a book I have been looking forward to for a long time - Archangel's Consort by Nalini Singh. This is the third in the Guild Hunter series. Here is the book description: An ancient and malevolent female immortal is rising in Manhattan to reclaim her son, the archangel Raphael. Only one thing stands in her way: Elena Deveraux, a vampire-hunter-and Raphael's lover.


And the beginning is....
Swathed in the silken shadows of deepest night, New York was the same...and altered beyond compare.
I can't wait to dig deeper into this story. I'm hoping for a snowy day tomorrow (even though the forecast doesn't give me any real hope of one) so that I can snuggle in and read without guilt.

  1. Hi Kathy,

    Love that first line and the dramatic cover art.

    You say it is part of a trilogy, but I wonder, could you read it as a stand alone story, or do they need to be read in sequence?
