Have you ever blamed God when your life was turned upside down? Our heroin Kristen does after her parents are burned at the stake, leaving her lost and abandoned in a Massachusetts forest in 1692.

These and more questions haunt Kristin Malach Elohim everyday in "An Angel's Sorrow." The more Kristin questions, the faster she turns away from God and watched her salvation slowly withers away.

Melquisedec Araiza's "An Angel's Sorrow" takes us on a spiritual journey where faith is shaken and friendships decide where our souls will spend eternity. Share the joys and pains of Kristin as she is thrust in a spiritual battle for her soul. "An Angel's Sorrow" will leave you mesmerized and frightened as you picture yourself in Kristen's shoes.

It is three weeks since the boy came to town, carrying a book of poetry to return to the old sea captain - the poetry that did for his friend Bárður. Three weeks, but already Bárður's ghost has faded. Snow falls so heavily that it binds heaven and earth together. As the villagers gather in the inn to drink schnapps and coffee while the boy reads to them from Shakespeare's Hamlet, Jens the postman stumbles in half dead, having almost frozen to his horse. On his next journey to the wide open fjords he is accompanied by the boy, and both must risk their lives for each other, and for an unusual item of mail. The Sorrow of Angels is a timeless literary masterpiece; in extraordinarily powerful language it brings the struggle between man and nature tangibly to life. It is the second novel in Stefánsson's epic and elemental trilogy, though all can be read independently.

After coming through the blizzard that almost cost them everything, Jens and the boy are far from home, in a fishing community at the edge of the world. Taken in by the village doctor, the boy once again has the sense of being brought back from the grave. But this is a strange place, with otherworldly inhabitants, including flame-haired Álfheiður, who makes him wonder whether it is possible to love two women at once; he had believed his heart was lost to Ragnheiður, the daughter of the wealthy merchant in the village to which he must now inexorably return. Set in the awe-inspiring wilderness of the extreme north, The Heart of Man is a profound exploration of life, love and desire, written with a sublime simplicity. In this conclusion to an audacious trilogy, Stefánsson brings a poet's eye and a philosopher's insight to a tale worthy of the sagasmiths of old.

Book Three of'Memory, Sorrow and Thorn'

Cinaxus is an angel who has been banished from heaven for failing to do his job as a reaper. He was a warrior who was accustomed to a life of fighting demons. When he was transferred to the duties of a reaper he was insulted, but he did what he was told. His failure was refusing to collect the soul of a human child. The story begins the night he was banished, but it takes place two hundred seventy-eight years after his banishment. Despite the religious undertones if you’re looking for a book about religion, this isn’t it. If graphic violence and coarse language offend you…. Read it anyway. There’s a lot of it, but you’ll probably get over it… Probably. An angel named Cin is a story with a colorful cast of characters. Some you’ll love, and some you might despise. It also features a new, and unique outlook on Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory. Once again this is not a book about religion. I can’t stress that enough. It’s a good mixture of adventure, horror, and comedy packed into a dark story. If any of these things interest you then this is the book for you. If you think it isn’t the book for you you’re wrong. You just don’t know it yet. It’s okay you’re forgiven.

Now, someone has put a bounty on her head… Venom is one of the Seven, Archangel Raphael’s private guard, and he’s as infuriating as he is seductive. A centuries-old vampire, his fangs dispense a poison deadlier than Holly’s. But even if Venom can protect Holly from those hunting her, he might not be able to save himself—because the strange, violent power inside Holly is awakening… No one is safe.
