*
Nalini Singh steps back into the shadows of her “heartbreakingly original”* world where angels rule, vampires serve, and the innocent can pay the greatest price of all…
Vampire hunter Elena Deveraux and her lover, the lethally beautiful archangel Raphael, have returned home to New York only to face an uncompromising new evil…
A vampire has attacked a girls’ school—the assault one of sheer, vicious madness—and it is only the first act. Rampant bloodlust takes vampire after vampire, threatening to make the streets run with blood. Then Raphael himself begins to show signs of an uncontrolled rage, as inexplicable storms darken the city skyline and the earth itself shudders.
The omens are suddenly terrifyingly clear.
An ancient and malevolent immortal is rising. The violent winds whisper her name: Caliane. She has returned to reclaim her son, Raphael. Only one thing stands in her way: Elena, the consort who must be destroyed…

Helen G. says...
I LOVE YOU!!!!
I have to honestly say... I am eagerly awaiting this novel.... and I wish time would just speed on up to its release....geez I get worse everyday and now.... I am totally entering the Fan Girl Stalking mode....its not pretty... I shall try to curb myself and will myself some more restraint... But its proving mighty difficult with all these teasers....
BUT DON'T STOP!!!!
LOL
Helen G.
YOU TORTURE US!!!!!
i cannot wait for this!!!
YOU TORTURE US!!!!!
i cannot wait for this!!!
I LOVE THIS SERIES!!!I must confess to you that you have ruined me for other audio books. I cannot seem to listen to anything else right now except Angel's Blood and Archangel's Kiss. I love the reader, and the writing...well.......that goes without saying, and I can't wait for Archangel's Consort. I do hope that Justine Eyre will continue reading the series (I know you have no say in that, just thought I'd put it out there). And whoever did the cover artwork for Archangel's Consort is fantastic. I love their vision of Elena. It would be so cool to see one of these covers in the "making" process!!I love all of your books, but this series, like Bluebell, has made it's way into my heart!!
:O I can't wait till that one comes out. I'm glad you have Play of Passion coming out. I'm seriously in withdrawal :( Honestly, I hate waiting (oh well but that's life!). There are times where some authors tease me with their excerpts and stuff but then when I read the book, I'm highly disappointed. That, has neverrr happened with one of your books Nalini. That's why I endure the long wait :) because I know you'll give us something amazing each and every time!
Ohh I want bad!!!!
@ Helen G. I agree with you !!!If you have not listened to the audio..........OH MY GOODNESS!!! The characters just JUMP off the page at you. I listen when I do housework , when I am home alone and it is quiet.........almost nothing better. Check it out :)
OMG! Thanks so much for posting this! I'm so excited! And reading this has made me even more anxious..
I cannot wait, Ive been eagerly anticipating the 3rd Guild Hunter for a year now. Whens the first chapter going to be posted? Hope its really soon. Love the books, just brilliant writing. Keep it coming!
You sure know how to keep our interests alive... :D
I seriously have never been this excited about a book just by reading the back cover blurb. :O
I don't know which book I'm more excited for - AC or Kiss of Snow! Hawke or Raphael?! Raphael or Hawke?! (And don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to Play of Passion too.) As already expressed by others above, the wait is PURE TORTURE for both! I'm just hoping I can survive this wait right now, lol. What have you done to me, Nalini?!
-T.L.
Oooh! Does he go silent? Was I the only one who thought he was INCREDIBLY sexy when he did that? yum.
I shouldn't have read it - now I don't know how I'll wait.
SKAH-WEEEEEE!
OK, when is this book out again?? The cover blurb makes me insane with yearning...
In a word-- WOW!!!
132 days, 132 days, 132 days...I can make it...I hope...
I'm getting goosebumps from just reading the blurb. This one is going to be fantastic. The anticipation is killing me.
I really really want to read Archangel's Consort now! And this blurb just makes me want it more now!
And Caliane! Who would have thought!
Please Please Please give more excerpts; it's a long wait till january.
Wow! Seems very intense. I can't wait!
OMG!Raphael's mom come back!
AHHHHHHHHHHH!
Mothers are very very scary people. :)
Okay, now to wait until next year...
That is awesome! I can't wait to read it! Thanks Nalini!
Too. Long. To. Wait!!!!!
Ooooh I can't wait!!

@Helen G - Amen!!
At least PoP is coming up and maybe I'll just have to look into audio versions in the meantime!
Oooh can't wait for this!
Wow!! I was not expecting Caliane to turn up yet. The wait for this to come out is going to be agonizing!!! I'm sure Elena and Raphael will survive but I'm sure it's going to be scaaaary!
Elena's gonna have to kill Rafael's MOMMA?!!! Yikes! Or maybe Caliane can be rehabilitated? Who will defeat her? How will Rafael handle this? What does his mom want with him after what she did? GAHHHH!!!! Those questions won't be answered until January. The TORTURE!!! lol
*reads warning*
*delves into summary*
*GULP*
*crosses fingers for Dmitri scenes* Sorry Nalini, but he's swoon worthy to the max!
Oh, this is so exciting! I can't wait for Archange's Consort! OR Play of Passion! They're both part of amazing series! You are an amazing author, Nalini! Thank you!
...Hehe. Sorry for all the exclamation points, but these book releases make me so happy. ^_^
God!! i KNEW there was gonna be something about cailine somewhere in the guild hunter series!!just never expected it to be so soon...
I LOVE YOU!!damn and id love you even more if it could come out like, right now. XD been waiting for nearly a year now for GH #3. cant wait!!*total fan girl*

Thank you soooooooo much for the blurb, when can we have the full chapter excerpt... tomorrow maybe???*grin* I reallly reallly reallly want this book , can't wait for January at least I'll have POP to keep me going
Sounds amazing. I think I will have to read it in english because I don't want to wait for the german release!! That's much too long.
I am SO excited about "Archangel's Consort"! Took the countdown widget, now I can just will the days to go faster. :)
Now I want an Archangel's Consort ARC contest too! :)
So mummy wants her boy back, and is will to make the rivers run red with the blood of innocents to get him back. Somhow I don't think "Go back to sleep Mummy" is the answer to this one! Can't wait to read it though ;)
Oh, I cannot wait! Love it!
But, I must admitt, when I saw the number of days left till it's release, I was a little depressed. Too many!
Count down faster!
OMG! Awesome! =D =D =D
I have an idea! You should combine both your series and have Caliane & the other crazy vamps/angels rehabilitated with Silence. ;-)
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
okay deep breath...compose self...
OMG that sounds amazing! i literally can't wait till it comes out...No im serious i can't wait please just publish it now! lol
The guild hunter series is my favorite of your series (of all series in the world really)
please dont be afraid to post teasers :)
btw love the new side count down thing its awesum, i think i will sit and watch the seconds tick by as it brings me one step closer to Archangels Consort :D
Love Lauren
OMG I have goose bumps.... I can't wait.
As *Ducky* said... """I LOVE THIS SERIES!!!I must confess to you that you have ruined me for other audio books. I cannot seem to listen to anything else right now except Angel's Blood and Archangel's Kiss."""
I feel the same way. It's all I listen to, I keep repeating in my head several scenes and going over the ones I've only listened to like twice XD (compared to the hundreds of times AB's ch12, or AK's ch11, where I usually begin my "reading". =D
Caliane! I was thinking Neha, but possibly-deranged super-powerful-archangel mother-in-law is WAY better =D I wonder if Caliane would want her 'territories' back (Simeria?) or if she would just assume she rules over North America (which I think that's the extent of Raphael's territories...). Anyway, AAAAAAAHHHHH! Mommy dearest is back! I'm so excited =D =D =D
Also, I'm so happy we are going back to the wolve's den in Play of Passion and that we are staying there for Hawke's book ^___^
I love you Nalini (aslo, love your name, lol =p)!! You are awesome and make the next 6 months amazing in the reading department!
Okay, too excited, I feel silly, but super happy =D
I got chills, I tell you, I got chills reading the blurb.
WOW! just WOW! can't wait to read!!
Ok I think I missed the deadline but hot damn this is gonna be awesome! (But just in case I didn't miss it: Maritza M is the name)
Helen G. says...
Thanks for the shout out Ducky!! I am totally ripping around town for a copy of the audio... I cannot wait!!!
Thanks also to Peppypilotgirl its nice to know you're not alone in the madness.... Is that a good thing????
Oh well I'm going with it!!!
Hugs,
Helen G.
Im hoping there will be a little down time in the beginning for Elena to build her little castle in the sky. Wait. Is Elena and Raphael gonna live together?
Cuz so far, Elena has been crashing in Raphael's bed, right? But now she's going to fix up her/another apartment and since Elena is very protective of her little "nest"(lol. how apropriate right? wings and all) where's Raphael gonna go?
I can't wait to read the little intricacies of their building relationship!
I WANNAAA READDDDDDDDDDDDDD...........................................................
Sorry, that was an utter breakout. Me and my whole group went crazy and started hyperventilating. You're killing us! That countdown made me go crazier. Even Play of Passion isn't out yet! I'm going to have a breakdown!!!!
OMG. Just read the blurb for Archangel's Consort. Can’t wait to read this book. Caliane coming back. Didn’t see that coming. AAAAHHH. January is too far away.
I love this series, and I can't wait for Archangels Consort to come out. Is it January yet?!?
Seriously Nalini, we're not kidding about it being absolute torture waiting to rd the books in your series. We're like children w/ our need for instant gratification! Just finished rdg Play of Passion & luv the Psy/Changeling series, but Guild Hunter books are my favorites! The excerpt in back of PoP was too short!!!!!! Elena & Raphael are such well-realized characters, I luv that they have their hangups- don't we all ;) But Elena is just so brave hearted & Raphael so sexy & strong they're absolutely my favorites! BTW, for you Hawke fans out there, Nalini had some pretty great scenes of him in PoP- could practically see the sweat rolling of his muscles as he was pumping iron, Mmmm
yum!
the book was great!!
Hope she writes some books on the lives of the archangel vampires :D
SERIOUSLY MAN, NALINI YOU R A GENIUS WHERE DO U COME UP WITH THESE THINGS. YEAH MAN FOR REALIZE TALK ABOUT MONSTER-IN-LAW.... CANT WAIT FOR THIS ONE
NALINI RULEZ BIG TIME, I THOUGHT SHERRILYN KENYON WAS GOOD BUT NNALINI YOU ARE GREAT.
