The first in a new series about 14-year-old Priscilla Pomeroy, who has the ability to see angels hidden among us, as well as the blue door that leads to the spiritual/heavenly realms.

About the Author

Christa Kinde, Storyteller

Behind the scenes, I’m a cheerful homebody whose many talents include dish-washing, laundry-sorting, and the weaving polysyllabic words into everyday conversation. First to know, last to tell, happy to try, and always true. A plotter and a plodder, a dabbler and a devotee. Weaknesses include bright colors, crazy socks, and alliteration. More to the point, I spend my days planning studies, plotting stories, and putting my nose to the proverbial grindstone… because as much as I loves writing, it’s work. Finding the perfect word, turning a phrase so it sparkles, giving a plot just a bit of a twist—they’re worth every iota of effort. I’m delighted to have discovered what I want to do when I grow up!

My Review

4 Stars

Priscilla Pomeroy is a fourteen year old girl that is going to discover she has a special ability, she can see angels. At first she doesn’t believe this and is irritated about her friends keeping the secret that they are angels. But the more she talks with them and other angels the more she comes to care for them and is willing to accept her gift.

But there is a lot happening and Prissy is going to be the key to the battle. There is a war coming between the angels and the demons and it is going to be up to Prissy to help out her new friends and follows Gods plan for her.

I liked Prissy, she is a good kid that gets along with her five brothers and helps out her parents. I understand how she felt betrayed by Milo and Koji when she learns that they are angels. I also understand how she doesn’t want this ability to see angels but has to learn to accept it. She is an important part of an upcoming war with her ability to see the Blue Door too.

This is a good start to a series. Although it has religious themes it is not preachy. I just wish there was a little more about the Blue Door and its importance. This was a good, quick read and I admit that I am excited to read The Hidden Deep to see what happens to Prissy.

I received a complimentary copy of this book. I voluntarily chose to read and post an honest review.

I would like to thank The Author for the opportunity to read and share this book.
