Revenant (Lords of Deliverance, #6; Demonica, #11) by Larissa Ione

Revenant (Larissa Ione)

SUMMARY

HELL HATH NO FURY . . .

For five thousand years, Revenant believed he was alone in the world, a fallen angel beyond any redemption. Now he finds he has a twin brother who had all the light and love Revenant was denied. Caught in a tug of war between Heaven and Hell, he must weigh his thirst for revenge against his desire for a mysterious female named Blaspheme—a female whose very origins could deliver him into salvation . . . or destruction.

LIKE AN ANGEL SCORNED

Blaspheme has a deadly secret: she's the forbidden offspring of an angel and a fallen angel. Hunted by both heavenly and satanic forces, she has survived only by laying low and trusting no one. When Revenant claims he can save them both, how can she possibly believe him? But the powerful angel is persistence incarnate and for Blaspheme, there's no place she can hide in Heaven or Hell where he won't find her . . 

MY REVIEW

Revenant was one fucked-up fallen angel.

Not really…
Apparently Revenant had been deceived for the last 5000 years. Born and raised in Sheoul, he always thought that he was a fallen angel before his memories returned in Reaver’s book.
So he is Reaver’s twin brother and it seems he is also the uncle of the four horsemen.
So he is a good guy.
Well, he does not like this! He has always been the bad boy, the dark guy, the evil angel you don’t want to meet when you visit Hell.

Revenant has four major problems that torture him in his book:
1. He hates how he was played and he wishes he could forget again. Because he is still Satan’s bitch and when Satan summons him he has to obey.

“It’s good to see you, my son.”
“Don’t call me that,” Rev ground out. “My father was an angel.”

2. He wants to be left alone by his relatives. Reaver keeps trying to meet him and Revenant does not feel like it. Especially because he has been denied before.

“I want for you to fuck off, just like I said.”

3. He does not belong to Heaven anymore, although he is an angel. He is Satan’s son now. Not even his mother sweet memory can save him.

Moonbeams and sunshine, the clouds and the seas, all part of the many worlds I want you to see. Fear not the unknown, nor the depths of the night, for nothing can harm you when I hold you tight.


4. He is obsessed with Blaspheme aka Blas and this has to be resolved somehow. Because Blaspheme keeps avoiding him.

“I was on my way to see you.”
She smiled sweetly. “Well, you’ve seen me. Buh-bye.”

All his problems will be resolved by the end of the book:
1. He will learn that it is not that bad to remember and to know the truth, because the truth will set him free from the Satan’s influence.
2. It is not too bad to have relatives, who have also suffered a lot. He was not the only one in the dark.
3. Since he does not belong to Heaven any more, that’s the perfect opportunity to make Hell his home – but under his own conditions.
4. Blas and Revenant belong together – especially when they found out that Blas was played as well. And she will also learn a few accurate facts about herself.

Blas and Revenant together are burning the pages of the book
“Is this what you wanted?” His guttural voice sent tingles across her skin. “Do you want more?”
“Yes,” she rasped. “More.”
“That’s my angel,” he whispered.

To say that I absolutely loved this book would be an understatement. So I will just leave it at that.
I really hope that you give this book a chance, but as a warning it not a standalone book. You need at least to read Reaver’s book before Revenant’s book.
