L.A. Banks captures the past, present and the future with Conquer the Dark!Celeste Jackson, the main character, has no clue as to where this adventure is going to take her. Little does she know but she and the group she has joined are about to take on a task that is beyond belief! Celeste is one of the remaining half human, half Angel with an ability to locate others of her kind. The Angel that has become her protector is Azrael, the Angel of Death. This group of abandoned Angels needs her powers to allow them to return to the Light or spend eternity in the Dark of the mortal realm. With Celeste at Azraels side she was able to give him a cause which is more profound than the ones he had before, a personal aspect to this battle that took his death-dealing to a new level against the darkness. This story takes Celeste on an adventure that is a mixture of magic, luck and lots of narrow escapes. The group seems to be a small army of Angels that have been stranded on earth after a big battle which took place 25,000 years ago. They stayed to try to prepare for the next big battle which is inevitable in the near future. They travel back to the home land, Giza and Egypt in search of lost clues and a powerful relic which they have to find before the side of Darkness gains control of it. Along the way there are battles, death and narrow escapes along with a few hot passionate sceness too! Celeste gets to return to her true home land and the origin of her past life thousands of years before.

Opinion: 

This is a well written book with a mix of facts, ancient history and speculation of our future. Magic, the battles, travel, and a little bit of wild romance make this book exciting reading! Wish I had known this was the second book in the series. Great book and never a dull moment! Combining all of this to make for an exciting book that is hard to lay down once you start reading it! It is like taking a trip that becomes an adventure of love, passion, good guys, bad guys and something exciting in every chapter. The story line is one that makes you think "what if this was true"? The story is written in a manner that leaves little to the imagination and is easy to get deeply involved in! Great book!!
