ARCHANGEL: Sharon Shinn: Ace Books: Fantasy: 390 pagesGabriel is set to become the next archangel, but he must find Rachel, the woman an oracle has declared to be his bride, before he can assume his new role. Finding Rachel as a slave in a wealthy household introduces more problems than it solves, though, as Rachel dislikes Gabriel and the angels and prefers to live and help the oppressed Edori population. A premise that sounds ridiculous is a suspenseful and interesting story as told by Shinn. Engaging from the first page, this unusual romance successfully examines social structures, faith, power, corruption, and love.
