After a year of silent manifestations, the angels that have appeared worldwide turn against mankind. Peri Delaney, a young woman with anger management issues, survives an attack that kills her only friend.
She and a handful of others have somehow been altered by the attacks, developing abilities that can only be called supernatural. The government begins to collect these ‘Changed’ into a group called Project Aegis, hoping they can be used against the "angels" and save mankind before it is too late.

This story grabbed me by the throat and hasn't let go. It grabbed me from the beginning with it's premise - angels have been appearing all over Earth for a year now, but not doing particularly angelish or comprehensible things. Our main character, Peri, is in her late teens (I think), a mix of anger and insecurity and care for her best friend. We get a tender glimpse into their friendship before it all gets ripped apart when the angels turn on humanity.
Style - 5/5 The writing is engaging, easy to follow and readable, speech is natural and realistic.
Grammar - 5/5 No particular errors I could see (but I'm not a grammar buff so don't shoot me if I've missed something)
Story - 5/5 I wanna Netflix binge on this story. It's goooooooood. Tense, fast paced, internally consistent. A+++
Character - 5/5 I love Peri! She's got flaws, and that's good; it makes her believeable and interesting. She makes sense and her reactions to what happens are consistent with who she is as a person. I look forward to seeing how she develops (particularly if that ends up with her punching an angel square in their perfect face!).
