The Fallen by Celia Thomson
4.0

I picked up this series on a whim. I remember watching the first season of the show based on this book (before it was cancelled) and really liking it.

I'm a little disappointed that the first book is all building up to what will be a much larger story arc than I thought. I would have preferred their to be more meat in the first book, giving me a better understanding of the main plot lines, without it being necessary to read book two.

Other than that and a few very minor details (that you would only pick up on if you were familiar with San Fransisco) I really enjoyed the characters, writing, and what the story was building to.

This is a fun young adult fantasy read and if you have a passing interest in Egyptology I think you'll quite enjoy it.

Now onto book two so I can dive into the meat of it all!
