In the Matter of Fallen Angels

When the unconscious figure of an angel inexplicably appears in their midst, the inhabitants of the small town of Utopia find their lives disrupted in unexpected ways. Inspired by the magic realism of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, "In the Matter of Fallen Angels" uses the lens of the extraordinary to celebrate the simple, everyday pleasures of ordinary life.

"Reporting deadpan on what happens when the townsfolk find an angel recumbent in the yard behind the general store, Jacqueline Carey channels the affectionate humor of Mark Twain... Carey writes like a dream. The result is enchantment." – Los Angeles Times

New York Times bestselling author Jacqueline Carey is most known for her historical fantasy series, "Kushiel's Legacy."
