First off the world building skills of this author don't seem to exsist. The reader is thrown into a post apocalyptic world with multiple new species that are explained quickly, never giving the reader a chance to absorb the information and a history that is tossed at them in a news story. The main character does try to embellish the explanation after the news cast , even hinting at the possibility the supposed angels are actually aliens, but I was still left with so many questions. And now for the main character. Her race is barely explained and she is just plain stupid! She is always making mistakes that can out her as a mage which is a hated race. I don't understand the concept of why she gave up her training when she left the mages enclave, you would think it would be important to her survival. She also seems to have this instinct to attack anyone who bashes mages, or contains darkness. Why does she have this uncontrollable rage? I will not be continuing this series. I was left confused and frustrated by the end of this book.
