The Dirty Streets of Heaven by Tad Williams

Bobby Dollar, an angel who has taken part in the long battle between Heaven and Hell, must figure out why there are suddenly an unprecedented number of souls missing from both sides and also who summoned a Babylonian demon to kill him.

This show how flexible Tad Williams really is. He writes an excellent urban fantasy with a cosmic battle between heaven and hell. It is exciting that this is going to be an ongoing series so we can see more development with these great characters.

I enjoyed this book. It was very noir-ish. reminded me alot of Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden books.

Really interesting story. I like that the angels in the book “work”. There were some questions that went unanswered.

Angel Doloriel, sighhhhhhh.......never thought you can have an immortal(in a meat suit)be as boring as this main character, finishing this one just gave me more questions, I love stories like this(angels, demons and/or gods of any pantheon), ahhhhhh........I'm obviously reflecting the character's attitude, I'm perplexed, confused and generally bored......there I said it.

Angels and demons playing lawyers.....gotta love that part but aside from that......this book just didn't live up to my expectations, anyway two more books of this type, I hope it becomes better.....hey like what the Christian God did when He failed on His first children, He created another and another until....well you know how that went.......
