Chronicle To Books Jovah's Angel (Samaria #2)

This is a standalone sequel to Archangel, set 150 years later in proverbially interesting times.

Samaria is industrialized; the Manadavvi and Jansai are wealthier; the Edori are marginalized, their roaming lifestyle disrupted; and Jovah seems to be turning a deaf ear to his angels' prayers for abatement of increasingly destructive storms. In the midst of all this, Archangel Delilah is incapacitated and replaced by shy, unworldly Alleluia. Alleya must pacify the tribes, calm the weather, make Jovah hear her, forge a reconciliation with Delilah, and find her angelico in order to get married--there's a Gloria due in four months. Unfortunately, the tribes don't want to be pacified, the weather is uncooperative, Jovah is remote, crippled Delilah wants nothing to do with angels, and Alleya's mate is identified only as a "son of Jeremiah."

Crit Containing Books Jovah's Angel (Samaria #2)

I read this second, before I learned that it was the 5th in chronological order, but since I didn't know, it didn't matter. The story is the same high quality as the first book Archangel. Good political and cultural foundations, well explained without getting wordy. A couple of nice challenges for our heroes, and a hearty romance. Although the characters become vexed, they don't whine. And despite the "magical" aspect, the problems are resolved directly. Secondary characters are well

So I kind of suspected where this series was heading with regard to Jovah, the "god" of Samaria whom the angels and humans worship, and the result was no big surprise - liberal hints were given even in the first book. But, it was still a well-crafted book, with a thoughtful look at religion not just in this fantasy world but also with connections to religion in our world (I didn't agree with it, but am willing to concede that the author stayed respectful in her exploration of religious themes

Read this back in March. I really enjoyed it better than the first one in the series. Not sure if I will continue or not.

I initially read this years ago and I had limited memory of the plot. However I found this to be disappointingly predictable and I was struggling to finish it. I absolutely love Archangel and have read it many times! There were too many references back to the first book and not enough suspense (We already know so much about the planet and the spaceship that orbits it). Shinn could have built up additional suspense with upping the natural disasters...the book felt like a whole lot of nothing

In my opinion, this was much better than the first in the series. It still had all the good things that I liked from the previous book, but without most of my complaints. The characters in the first book were compelling but at times drove me nuts. It was the world that had me wanting to read the sequel. And it was definitely an improvement, even though at times one of the lead characters seems almost too perfect. It switched back and forth on POV's like the first book but it seemed like it was

Ha! I KNEW it. I figured out what Samaria's god really is....but I'd better not spoil it. I think I figured it out back in ARCHANGEL. Still, Sharon Shinn's angel books are a real pleasure. I identified most with Alleluia, the reluctant Archangel in this book. I love how singing is more than just a performance act -- it has a purpose -- for the angels. This book brought up the highly appropriate tension between industrialization and non-technical society. And really turned up the heat when the

The romance, the conflicts, and the revelations were very different from the first, but Samaria still captured me. A delightful read!
