Author: T. Frohock

Series: part three of "Los Nefilim", follows Without Light or Guide

Pages: 128

Summary: Save the world, or save his family…

For Diago Alvarez, that’s the choice before him. For unless he wants to see his son Rafael die, he must do the unthinkable:

Help the Nazis receive the plans to the ultimate weapon.

And while Diago grows more comfortable not only with his heritage, but also with his place among Guillermo’s Los Nefilim, he is still unsure if he truly belongs amongst them.

In a frantic race to save the future of humanity, Diago is forced to rely on his daimonic nature to deceive an angel. In doing so, he discovers the birth of a modern god—one that will bring about a new world order from which no one can escape.

My thoughts:

As with the other two parts - I love it so much.

It's the conclusion of this arc and it delivers. Oh, boy, does it deliver. Diago and Rafael being kidnapped from their home and Diago singing down to Moloch in order to save Rafael. Awesome. Heartbreaking. Great.

I also love the "people can change and use second chances" theme that has been important in this part. ♥

I'm still so much in love with the fact that they sing their magic and also dance it.

My heart was breaking when Diago and Rafael got kidnapped and Diago basically gave up on being rescued because no car was following them. I'm so glad that Miguel and especially Don Guillermo came through for them and helped them rescuing themselves. Because, yeah, Rafael manages to get away and Diago does too (and, I'm in love with Rafaels magic - the painting and especially bringing the drawn Ghost to life and using her to find Diago? ♥). :)

I love that Diago finally has proof to believe that people (Los Nefilim) will come to his aid and protect him and the ones he loves. ♥

This is one of these stories for which I want more. I'm not demanding it from the author, but if they ever choose to write more in this world? I'm so there for it. (Also, movie/graphic novel/anime/tv show of this? +gimmie+)
