Awaken Archangel by CJ Piperata
5.0

Do you yearn for a book that will, simply put, blow your mind with its genius and make you laugh so hard so many times you'll stop counting? A book with so many layers, so many hidden truths, so many gems, so many puns, you won't know where to look first? A book that will make you question everything you know and offer so many new perspectives? A book about Heaven and angels, where neither Heaven nor angels are what you may have been expecting?

If this and more is your heart's true desire, look no further than C.J. Piperata's Awaken Archangel, Book 1 in her Universal Technologies series.

There is something so special and so unique about this book, its world and characters, something almost intangible yet so imaginative and different. C.J. has done such a masterful job writing and imagining this story that I feel any review might not be able to convey just how utterly fantastic this book is.

Each and every character is so complex and so expressive. The world-building is vast and immersive, but fear not, you will thread it and you will feel like a part of the story.

Nobody knows who Michael is. Not even Michael. How could that be possible in a world deemed so pure and perfect? In a world where there should be no pain or sorrow? Hm... Maybe not everything is as perfect as it seems. Maybe it will take an unlikely band of characters to form the most perfectly imperfect found family to uncover the secrets buried deep. Maybe the battle of light vs. dark is more complex than it seems. Maybe, maybe, maybe... All it takes for you is to grab a copy of Awaken Archangel and join the merry band of sort-of-misfits. We will be waiting.

The ARC of Awaken Archangel was the best gift for my mind and soul, and I am honoured to join C.J. Piperata on her author's journey.
