Title: Raising Chaos (Earthbound Angels #2)
Author: Elizabeth Corrigan
Synopsis: When good fails, chaos rises to the challenge. The daily life of a chaos demon is delightfully sinful—overindulging in Sri Lankan delicacies, trespassing on private beaches in Hawaii, and getting soused at the best angel bar on the planet. But when Bedlam learns that the archdemon Azrael has escaped from the Abyss in order to wreak vengeance against the person who sent her there—Bedlam’s best friend, Khet—he can’t sit idly by. Only one relic possesses the power to kill Khet, who suffers immortality at Lucifer’s request: the mythical Spear of Destiny, which pierced Christ’s side at His crucifixion. Neither angel nor demon has seen the Spear in two thousand years, but Azrael claims to know its location. Bedlam has no choice but to interpret woefully outdated clues and race her to its ancient resting place. His quest is made nearly impossible by the interference of a persnickety archivist, Keziel—his angelic ex—and a dedicated cult intent on keeping the Spear out of the wrong hands. But to Bedlam, “wrong” is just an arbitrary word, and there’s no way he’s letting Khet die without a fight.
My Review:
Raising Chaos is somehow different from the 1st book. It is narrated by three different characters, two of them we already met, Carrie and Bedlam and a new one Siren. I loved reading Bedlam´s chapters and that he has more importance in this book. Carrie or Khet as she is named for most of the book has more a role of secondary character, she narrated her life which is important for the plot development but instead of being an active player, she remains as an outsider. The last narrator is Siren, a mysterious Angel with a supernatural voice. I didn´t liked her chapters a lot, there were necessary to understand a lot of things from the story but they were kind of lacking of strength.
The ending left me speechless, I wanted it to happen but it was so suddenly that it took my breath away. I can´t wait to read the 3rd book to know more about Bedlam, Gabriel and Carrie. I really recommend it because it is an easy and refreshing reading full of adventures and mysteries that will surprise you in every page.
