I just want to know if there is ever going to be a sequel.

The Angelic Origin of Vampires

In addition to a spell-binding story, what I found most fascinating about Mr. Lord-Wolff's book was a perfectly plausible and exciting explanation of how vampires came to exist. I've enjoyed Anne Rice for years, but we can only hope that Lord-Wolff keeps writing more books, because I have a hunch that his brand of story-telling and his fearlessness in exploring perplexing spiritual issues, will make his books far more popular than even the Queen of the... well, you know...

Epic

The Silence In Heaven is a truly breathtaking vision of what might happen if one third of all angels were banished from heaven, brutally cast out of the light and cursed to live among a mortal world they have no love for. Stripped of their wings and forced to dawn flesh, they each set off on a quest for redemption and the answers that will lead them back to the light. Through the centuries the fallen angel Tashum spans the globe in search of his celestial brother Paladin. Devastated by their separation and desperate to return to heaven, Tashum searches for the clues that will reunite him with his brother and restore them to their former glory. Peter Lord Wolf masterfully blurs the lines between good and evil as Tashum weathers the seas of emotion that plague him as he walks among mankind. Peters fallen angels are thrust into a delicate balancing act, consorting with vampires and coping with human temptation while trying to keep one foot in the light. A truly epic story, vibrant characters and the writers spellbinding word craft make this book a true fantasy masterpiece. breathtaking

Hollywood Must Be Chomping At The Bit!

When our hero, Tashum is cast from Heaven...I felt his horror. When Tashum stuggles with the love and disdain that he feels for the vampires and the humans...I understood. When reading Ann Rice, I feel like an observor. I was drawn in to all of the emotions expressed by both Fanny and Tashum. I wanted to be with them in London and Paris during their struggles and adventures. When I have the chance to visit these strange and often exotic places, I will be looking for Fanny, Tashum, and the others. I want a sequel! Thank you for this enchanting and exciting story. I am ordering copies for all of my girlfriends!
