They said that God didn’t exist. They said that the time for religion was over. If mankind was to progress, the human race had to be purged of superstitions. Like everyone else, Chelsea Shields believed the Lumen Corporation, even when they hunted the faithful to extinction. What did she care? She had no sympathy for fools and fanatics. But the grisly death of her brother was about to change all that. Freed from bondage and forced on the run, her only hope for salvation lies with three mysterious priests known as the Archangels. Armed with prayer, sacred rituals and a truckload of guns, these fugitives from the Underground Church vow to save her from the armies of Hell. But can she really trust these men to protect her? Surrounded by treachery and intrigue, and pursued by seven demons, she finds herself drawn into a world of despair. To survive the night, she has to confront her deepest fears. And do all she can to recover her faith before it’s too late.
League Of Angels is an adrenaline-pumping ride into the supernatural, combining heart-stopping action with mystical folklore and facts, truth and fantasy to create a compelling tale of loyalty, faith, courage, and sacrifice.

My awareness of League of Angels started as a surprise and questioning find by someone in a Catholic group who was taken and a bit concerned by the cover art. After reading it, I find it a bold debut novel by Thomas Tan. I took advantage of a free promotion download and am glad I did.Contrary to an initial impression by some in the group that it would be a warped portrayal of Catholicism, it actually turned out to be informative and paying deep homage to traditional Catholic teachings and history.
The action sequences play almost like watching a popcorn action movie with dialogue that could fit a Die Hard movie. On the other hand, the dialogue and narrative about how Catholicism suffers attacks from within and from a relativistic society could be a part of a deep and challenging sermon or discussion group. There may not be many people who would like both the action of chrism tipped bullets against Satan's army as well as the deeper theology behind it, but if you fit both groups League of Angels is boldly and bravely different and worth the reflection it gives you between the action.

LEAGUE OF ANGELS edition by Thomas Tan Darren Tan Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
Epic characters, epic plot! This book is just awesome. I love the twists in the plot and it's almost as if you're with Chelsea as she runs from crazy Lumen killers, supernatural plagues and demons from hell.
A fast-paced roller coaster ride that will keep you at the edge of your seat as you plunge into action with the author's electrifying ability to write suspenseful, riveting confrontations between good and evil, while revealing the backstories of the lead characters. You can't help but root for the Archangels! Absolutely brilliant!
League of Angels is a chilling, prophetic vision of a tomorrow that has come too soon.
The world the author paints, a place enslaved by corporations and demons, is vivid and teeming with truth. And yet, even in the darkness of this journey, there is hope and it is a read that is at times spiritually uplifting as well. The story is loaded with high octane action that has the reader pulsing with excitement from the get go.
The archangels are the most bad ass collection of heroes since the crew that took on the Death-Star. And if need be, they can take confessions as well.
The book is also peppered with interesting insights into the rich tapestry of the Catholic faith.
If you want an exciting, thrill ride, packed with demons and the supernatural, going up against some of the most unique action heroes ever imagined, then this is the book for you.
If you're a Christian/Catholic faithful, you might find this very inspiring because of the faith displayed the priests and rebels in the darkest time for the religion (like Roman Persecution V2.0).
If you like an action packed good vs evil book, you'll love the twists and turns in each chapter.
I am eagerly hoping and praying for a sequel.
I was slightly concerned when I started reading, as this book was definitely written from a Catholic viewpoint. Still, it is not tied down by dogma, and the key points of the story are quite good. I wouldn't recommend substituting it instead of daily devotions, and it is definitely not a book for the younger children, but anyone who enjoyed the premise of Left Behind will likely enjoy this
I could review the book as
"When Constantine meets Dan Brown (minus the badly researched inaccuracies), you get the League of Angels."
but I would be oversimplifying things.
The League of Angels is cleverly structured to unveil itself (depending on the reader) at different levels.
On the surface it is a fast paced, hard hitting and action packed war story of Catholic priests battling the forces of evil incarnated in the form of a modern global corporation. The exciting roller coaster battle goes from zero to a hundred in a single chapter and doesn't let up until the end of the book.
For fans of Dan Brown who are craving for deeper insights into the mysterious ancient practices and beliefs of the Catholic Church (e.g. exorcism rites), the League of Angels provides a well informed, stylish but very orthodox glimpse into the beliefs and rituals of the Church that few (even Catholics) would be aware of.
But most troubling of all, I would classify the book as an action-fiction if not for it's almost prophetic and disturbing storyline of the growing persecution of religion (not just Christianity) unfolding right before us in the hijacked guise of secularism and humanism.
The author has brilliantly chosen to structure his universe on the amazing storehouse of history, heroes, culture, rituals, literature and practices of a 2,000 year old organization and I can only imagine the wealth of possibilities in the form of parallel plots and sub plots that can be harvested for future novels, animated books and yes... an epic multi-part movie for those savvy enough to catch on.
My hope for the next book is not a sequel (yet), but rather a prequel which chronicles the rise of the corporation...
This novel will solidify your faith in our Lord Jesus Christ! A truly inspired read. One you will want to come back to over and over again!
This book has almost the feel of the prophetic even though it is a work of fiction. This is because Thomas had woven current realities of the shift from Intrinsic truths by many in the Christian community and extrapolated it into a very possible scenario of a wholesale degeneration of society due to its resultant relativistic nature. This is an action packed apocalyptic-like story of the battle between good and evil.
This is a well researched story. Many of the rites and rituals of the Catholic church; prayers of exorcism and supplication are described in great detail and written with the feel of a news report.
This book can be read and enjoyed on many levels. From a simple action adventure to a thought provoking look at how relativism, secularism and existentialism can affect a society to the point where even the innocent can be involuntarily corrupted by intrinsic evil.
