Description
Dark angels are on the horizon in Trussoni’s hefty fiction debut. Leading the pack are the Nephilim — beautiful warmongering angel-human hybrids who have controlled human destiny since Noah’s flood — and their soldier minions the Gibborim, who resemble a legion of towering Darth Vaders with wings. The forces for good are members of the ancient esoteric group of Angelologists, who have protected humankind from the Nephilim for centuries.
The search in Angelology is for a mysterious and potentially dangerous lyre that lies at the bottom of Devil’s Throat cavern in the Rhodope Mountains in Bulgaria. The lyre is connected with the fallen angels described in the book of Genesis, as well as in the Orpheus myth.
Trussoni traces a lineage from 925 A.D. in Thrace, when the first group of Angelologists made an expedition into the Rhodopes in search of the lyre, to New York in December 1999, when the latest clash between Angelologists and Nephilim is at hand.
