Urban Fantasy author Laurell K. Hamilton stops by to talk about the first book in her new series, A Terrible Fall of Angels, which happens to also be her first with a male lead protagonist.

Laurell talks about her new detective hero, angel expert Zaniel Havelock, his history and the journey he will be going on, and more. It’s a tough job when you know Armageddon has rules but you’re not allowed to know exactly what those rules encompass.

She also talks about her research into angels and their nature, her fascination on the disagreements between different religious & historical texts about which ones are actually fallen (or not), the placement of devils, demons and fallen angels and much more.

Laurell dives into how this new series came about, and how different it is to write than the stories for the Anita Blake and Merry Gentry series, and her desire to write something that inspires more hope led to getting this story completed.
