One of my most favorite series starts with this book.
I am an avid reader, I average 2+ supernatural fiction books a week. I am a sucker for angels, psychics, vampires, were-people, witches, etc.
THE FALLEN is a great book to get lost in, the transition from teen to young adult is difficult in itself, add finding out you have supernatural powers and dealing with it on your own. The main character is amazing, tough,funny,bad-ass and heroic. The setting is close to home for New Englanders. As a fellow N.E., I can appreciate the vivid description of the various cities and towns. This story, like all of Sniegoski's books, which I highly recommend, is fast paced, dramatic, exciting, violent and full of suspense that keeps me coming back for more.1 out of 1 people found this review helpful.

The Fallen
This book is great. i literally couldnt put it down. its a great book for teens. it deals with many things teens deal with; such as not being as popular as all the others adn liking someone who is out of your league. Then it brings into play the thing we all probably envey, his God given powers.

Interesting
I have to say I enjoyed the book, but it is all over the place. Once second i'm reading from one characters point of view, and the the next i'm somewhere else. It was a little draining trying to keep up with everything going on. It was very graphic in my opinion, but overall it was a good story. It kept me interested enough to where I wanted to know what was going to happen in the second book.

Excellent
This is an excellent read! Once you read it you'll never forget it, once you open it and read those first words you won't be able to set the book down.

Good book
It's a nice book. I really liked it. At first I thought I'd hate it but then after reading chapter one I really fell for it. It's a good book.

Interesting, but Disturbing...
I will admit that I saw the mini-series first, but otherwise I'd never have thought to read the book, so there.

It was very well-written, and there is a great deal of content that never made it to the mini-series. However,
SPOILER ALERT!!!
the killing off of Aaron's foster parents and kidnapping of Stevie to be used as an angelic-directed bloodhound was massively disturbing compared to the M-S, and left me feeling less than interested in going out and reading the next book in the series. I'm sorry, but that's how I feel. -
yay
This was worth reading, but it wasn't the best thing ever. The plot idea is original and good (it at first seems sacriligeous, but not so much once you learn what's going on) but the writing was meh. I didn't really get into it.

A reviewer
When I first saw the title of this book, I wasn't to sure if it was going to be worth it. BOY WAS I WRONG! This is one of the BEST books that I have ever read, even though it has a twist of biblical information in it. I love everything about it, from the beginning to the end. I am the type of person that loves to read alot of books. This book is totally different. It talks about an 18 yr-old who experiences life in a whole different perspective on his birthday. Everything starts with a headache to understanding languages that he never knew to talking to his dog. Kind of strange, huh? Later on, he meets poeple that are able to tell him what the real deal about him. When he find out what he is, he denies it. He denies it all at first, but when the Powers come after his family, he finally accepts who he is. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO ANYONE THAT LOVES TO READ!

One of the best book that I have ever read!!!
When aron turns 18 his world changes in a drastic way. It begins with a terrible headache, but it turns into so much more. He begins to understand launguges that he has no way of knowing, and he can even understand his dog. aron soon learns what is happening to him, and trys to denie it, but when his family is threatened aron comes to understnd the signifagance of his new gift. I wont give away the ending, but I'll just tell you that it is REALLY good. This book is one of the best books that I have read this year. When I first found it, i didnt think that I would like it, and I was right. I LOVED it. I would recomend this book to people who like reality with a twist of fanticy.

An Amazing read!
I¿m not an easy person to please when it comes to books. There are many fantasy books that I have started to read and put down because both the hero and the villain were too cliché and predictable or because the descriptions didn¿t meet my expectations. When I picked up Fallen for the first time, I didn¿t expect it to be the series that I¿d be counting the days till the next book is published, but it was just that. The characters are very well developed and evolve in unexpected ways throughout the story. Aaron, the protagonist, grows as he learns to understand and control his angelic nature.My personal favorite, former Powers leader, Camael shows great determination to end the violence and help Aaron on the path of his destiny. Gabriel, the Labrador retriever, is the much-needed comedy relief, but his loyalty is second to none. The villain, Verchiel, differs from the classical ¿Big Evil¿ of books because he believes that what he¿s doing is really the will of God. His determination makes him a very powerful character. I think Fallen also sends a message of hope. The hope that all of us can be forgiven and can redeem ourselves. After all, don¿t we all want to forgiveness for something?

A Definite Must Read
This is a very interesting mix of God vs. Evil,late teenage life,and a touch of Biblical info.I must admit that I normally steer clear of any book that tries to mix a supernatural fantasy with any amount of any religion(Only because I'm at an age where most don't have any interest in the biblical latter)But, any way this book surprised me and I'm officialy addicted to reading this series along with many others. Mr.Sniegoski I complement you on this page-turning read.

An Awesome Read!!!
On turning 18 Aaron Corbert, orphaned since birth, realises that he is different, some might even say special. His world is turned upside down over night as his true nature is revealed, along with the destiny he never asked for - that will endanger the ones he loves. I loved this book. It's 'unputdownable,' a compelling read. It's got fantasy, fighting, romance, humour and horrors, along with a whole lot more. The Characterisation is awesome - I mean, who would have thought you could characterise a dog? - Yes, I did just say dog. It's full of suspense and an ending that will have you yearning for more. A must read! But don't just listen to me, see for yourself.
