Summary: Good addition to the Angel novel series.
Review: The Serpentene are a wealthy group of demons who live their lives disguised as humans, making the majority of their money through telemarketing. When Angel receives a job guarding the Serpentene community against a group of Quake demons, Cordelia is thrilled - the wealthy Serpentene plan to pay well. Angel is suspicious, though - he doesn't understand why the Quake demons would be after the Serpentene. True, the Quake demons are attempting to kidnap four people, each connected to one of the elements - earth, air, fire, and water - for a ritual, but the Serpentene just don't seem to figure in there. Angel does find a connection between the four potential victims and the evil law agency Wolfram and Hart, however. Now he must stop the ritual - for as a vision of Doyle's reveals, there may be more at stake then just four lives. The entire city of Los Angeles may be at risk. This wasn't the best book in the Angel series, but I thoroughly enjoyed this new Angel novel and it brought back memories of the days when Doyle was on the show.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Angel-mania!!!
Review: This book was the first Angel book I read and I thought it was very good.It had mad fight scenes and good one-liners, it even had Wolfram and Hart!Ok,the story:Quake demons attack another tribe of demons called Serpentene.It turns out that the Quake demons are kidnapping people for a ritual and as usual Angel goes to stop them!the demons need people associated with the 4 elements:earth,water,fire,air.It is a great book for people who love the Angel crew.That's all from me.Hope my review helped!

Summary: Pretty good
Review: This is just the cure for this season's Angel/Buffy blues. If you need relief for Angel's perpetual anguish over the reborn Darla and Drusilla you will enjoy this book immensely.

Angel is hired to help solve the problems of a group of snake demons and finds himself embroiled in a complex plot involving earthquakes, sacrifices, as well as our favorite bad guys, Wolfram & Hart. This is pure first season Angel.

Told with a wry sense of humor the story moves along quickly. Doyle and Cordelia are totally in character - not too bright, or too civilised. Which, of course, is what makes them perfect companions for Angel. While there is nothing deep or meaningful here to give the book any redeeming value, it is pure entertainment, and, as such, is worth reading. Especially if you can settle down in a comfy chair with a large store of popcorn (lot's of butter, please).
