Angels are the new Vampires

BACK

Angels are taking over the young adult sector of the book industry with publishers releasing a slew of new stories hoping to tap into the already booming supernatural genre. Two novels that are expected to become best sellers are Angel, the first of a three part series by L.A. Weatherly and Angel’s Fury by Bryony Pearce, both with a strong focus on romance.

Authors are not the only ones cashing in on this latest craze; film-makers are also rushing to bring out blockbuster movies starring the celestial beings.

The interest in angels last surfaced in the 1990s with books like Dark Angel written by American author Lisa Jane Smith.
