An Angel's Calling - An Angel's Calling - E-book - ePub

"Growing up, you are taught a plethora of words used to express how you feel. Literature is a type of art that uses these words to create visions, to explain what can't be explained in simple terms. It is an art that some will find confusing and others will find a home in" (pp.227). An Angel's Calling is a book that holds the themes of friendship, fear, angels, visions, revenge, magic, and loss. Khalid (16), our protagonist, finds himself in the middle of a big scheme of events.
With every loss, there is a gain; and with every gain, there is a loss. While Khalid loses his family, his sense of peace, and his connection to this world, he also gains insight into a magical world, finds everlasting friends, and gains more confidence. And how or why does he gain and lose these things? Well, it all begins when Khalid starts to see flashes/visions of upcoming events. It is then that he meets a shadow who introduces him to the world of magic.
Khalid soon finds out that things are not quite right. Once some deep secrets are revealed to him about why he came into the magical world, his purpose becomes clear. He needs to save the magical world. But save it from what? You may ask. He must save this world from something known as the Feno Bracelet. A bracelet so powerful that it can induce or take away fear completely. With this one bracelet, everyone can be brought to their knees.
But what's so important about Khalid, why does he need to destroy it? The simple answer is his blood ... But to understand the answer, well, I guess you'll have to read the book for that part.
