출판사 설명
Hell on earth.
That’s what it’s like for Luce to be apart from her fallen angel boyfriend, Daniel.
It took them an eternity to find one another, but now he has told her he must go away. Just long enough to hunt down the Outcasts—immortals who want to kill Luce. Daniel hides Luce at Shoreline, a school on the rocky California coast with unusually gifted students: Nephilim, the offspring of fallen angels and humans.
At Shoreline, Luce learns what the Shadows are, and how she can use them as windows to her previous lives. Yet the more Luce learns, the more she suspects that Daniel hasn’t told her everything. He’s hiding something—something dangerous.
What if Daniel’s version of the past isn’t actually true? What if Luce is really meant to be with someone else?
The second novel in the addictive FALLEN series . . . where love never dies.
From the Hardcover edition.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In Kate's sequel to Fallen, fallen angel Daniel has negotiated an 18-day truce with demonic Cam, during which time they will keep his one true love, 17-year-old Luce, safe from the Outcasts, "spineless, waffling angels, shunned by both Heaven and Hell," who are after her. Daniel sends Luce to Shoreline, a Northern California prep school for angel-descended Nephilim. The change is stressful for her because she is there alone and because she is seen as a "legendary freak" by some students for her famous doomed relationship with Daniel, which has unfolded tragically over several lifetimes. Uncovering details from her past lives and meeting charmingly normal Miles, Luce begins to have doubts about Daniel. Equal parts romance and thriller, this sequel can be both schmaltzy ("There was no darkness, no more cold, just the lovely sensation of being bathed in his violet glow. Even the rush of the ocean was canceled out by a soft hum, the energy Daniel carried in his body") and frequently suspenseful. The open-ended finale paves the way for a third book. Ages 12 up.

Pretty Good
I enjoyed this second book of the "fallen" series. The characters are easy to get to know and follow. I look forward to the third in the series.
Torment
Omg this book was amazing! I seriously am going to die waiting for passion to come out!!! But wait! So when Luce tells her mother that she is in love with Daniel her mother asks if it's the guy with blonde hair and Luce says yes.....doesn't Daniel have dark hair?? Maybe I'm wrong but it got me very confused. Also is the next book still going to tell what happens after this battle? Like are luces parents worried? But anyways, this was an extremely good book and I am addicted to the series, I read all of these books within 3 days or less because I just couldn't put them down!!
Totally sappy }:(
This book was especially horrible. It's all about how miserable Luce is because her boyfriend left her at this fantastic school. Big freaking deal! When you first read this book series you think awwww how romantic. But after awhile you'll realize god this book series is so sappy. It was so sappy for me that I felt like I was reading a maple tree(sorry that comment really doesn't make sense) Anyway this book was a torment to read.
