Night Angels: A Novel

Product Information

This book is about Ho Fengshan, a Chinese diplomat stationed in Vienna in the mid-to-late 30's, just before WWII. The location of Iures is not explicitly stated at the end of the trilogy, but it is highly likely that the Dark Hunter has it in Ezra's Wood. Whether you need water, directions, slippers or someone to talk to, our team of volunteers will be there for you in your time of need to ensure you get home safely. Despite the despairing situation, the story also provides moments of hope and joy as the Chinese consulate director strives to save as many Jews as possible through the issuance of visas, while being relentlessly pursued by Eichman. The book focuses more on the fictional story his American wife Grace and her Jewish tutor Lola, trying to get out of the country.

Based on the true story of the man known as the “Chinese Schindler,” Night Angels is the kind of book you’ll want to stay up reading through the night, and its hopeful message will stay with you long after you’ve put it down.

Quiet, scholarly Ho Fengshan has just been made consul general in Vienna, preoccupied with his troubled American wife, Grace, and disquieted by the new anti-Semitic laws sweeping Austria.

The Street Angels provide help and support to those in need, whatever the cause, working closely with other organisations, such as Door Staff, Emergency Services and the City Council. Over in Hull, the body of a woman is discovered battered to death in a hotel bathroom; the only clue to her identity is a card bearing the name of an escort agency notorious for its suspected trafficking in Eastern European prostitutes. Weina Dai Randel is the award-winning author of The Last Rose of Shanghai as well as The Moon in the Palace and The Empress of Bright Moon, a historical duology about Wu Zetian, China's only female emperor.

Grace is the American-born wife of Dr Ho Fengshan, the Consul General of China, currently based at the Chinese consulate in Vienna. Curoch takes on the appearance of this blade (and it is suggested that Curoch, through its inherent shapeshifting abilities, may very well be the original Ceur'caelestos), and Lantano Garuwashi subsequently takes it from Feir. The only known way of completely destroying a ka'kari is with the sword Curoch, as demonstrated by Kylar's destruction of the white ka'kari.

Grace continually throughout the book tries to use sex to get her way out of her husband and when she doesn't, she pouts and walks away. HO Fengshan "Righteous among nations" who battled with his own unwilling government to issue life-saving visas - thousands to save Jews in Vienna and Germany.

The two best examples of Curoch's power are when Solon Tofusin used it to kill all the meisters using their vir during Roth's coup in Cenaria, when Jorsin Alkestes used it to blow apart the magic that was giving the krul form in the Alkestian Cycle (an era predating the time in which the Trilogy is set), and when Kylar uses Curoch to kill Neph Dada, euthanise Elene, and kill Khali, who was possessing her at the time.We would like to thank Capital Arches Group, Heart of London Business Alliance, and Northbank Business Improvement District for their support. A krul is like a zombie in that it does not feel pain or fear, and can be raised again after being killed; however, a krul needs to eat to sustain its energy. The oath and corresponding magical compulsion are relatively weak, but to remove it entirely the wetboy would have to submit themselves to a mage (every mage in Cenaria is under the control of the Sa'Kage) or a meister (Durzo again: ". Its other abilities are: accelerated healing, the ability to see through shadows, the ability to dissipate a talent users weaves and(or) talent {". They also grant the user immortality, although they can still be killed in a way unaffiliated with the powers of their ka'kari.

Glamour being defined as a weave to give the bearer an illusion to others, and in this case, the glamour of the white ka'kari was so powerful that it could be used to create an irresistible compulsion in others. Shy and ill at ease with the societal obligations of diplomats' wives, Grace is an outsider in a city beginning to feel the sweep of the Nazi dragnet. This can range from giving directions and handing out water or slippers, to assisting someone on the street who has lost or had their property stolen, or someone who has become vulnerable due to alcohol intoxication.Trace may have allied herself with one of the Strangers when Durzo used the black ka'kari's magic to kill her. I wish she had a better ending, but it just shows you how hard times really were for the Jews during WW2. Logan Gyre assumes the title of High King, becoming the overlord of Khalidor, Lodricar, Cenaria and Ceura. Night Angels offers a fresh non-western-centric perspective on the rise of Nazism and Jewish persecution.
