School Library Journal Review
Gr 9 Up-The sky is falling-literally-in Lauren Kate's final novel (Delacorte, 2012) in the "Fallen" series. Timequakes, disguised as earthquakes, mark Lucifer's steady decent through the heavens, thereby collapsing the eternities and erasing the past. Luce, Daniel, an eclectic group of fallen angels, seedy Outcasts, and a whimsical transeternal have nine days to stop him by acquiring three relics scattered across the globe and assembling them at the location of the original Fall. During the course of their journey, Luce begins to recall her past, which provides key information to unlocking the mystery, including an amazing revelation-Lucifer, not Daniel, was her first true love. However, before Lucifer can reset the universe, the Throne brings everything to an abrupt halt. Ultimately, Luce and Daniel choose love, but the price is loss of immortality. The fabulous Justine Eyre provides spot-on narration-from the evil, guttural voice of Lucifer to the silky sighs of the lovers. A bonus interview between Eye and Kate concludes the audiobook. This epic romance is a perfect blend of mystery, intrigue, and celestial imagery with a beautiful, bittersweet ending. A must-have for all libraries.-Cheryl Preisendorfer, Twinsburg City Schools, OH (c) Copyright 2012. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
Booklist Review
Lucifer has bent time in order to erase history and return the world to the point of the angels' original dismissal from heaven. Star-crossed celestial lovers Luce and Daniel have only nine days to unravel a 7,000-year-old mystery that will keep history intact and also break the curse that prevents their being together. Kate's theatrical language may not appeal to every reader, but there are some Indiana Jones-worthy action sequences and a satisfying emotional conclusion in this final book of the popular Fallen trilogy.--Welch, Cindy Copyright 2010 Booklist
