Release Date: May 14, 2009
Publisher: Razorbill
Age Group: Young Adult
Pages: 304
Dru Anderson has what her grandmother called “the touch.” (Comes in handy when you’re traveling from town to town with your dad, hunting ghosts, suckers, wulfen, and the occasional zombie. Then her dad turns up dead—but still walking—and Dru knows she’s next. Even worse, she’s got two guys hungry for her affections, and they’re not about to let the fiercely independent Dru go it alone. Will Dru discover just how special she really is before coming face-to-fang with whatever—or whoever- is hunting her?
I liked this one, fast paced, action packed, paranormal page turner, er… urban fantasy.
The story was interesting. Dad and daughter engaged in a battle with all things that go bump in the night. This was something new for me. Not sure I understood why her Dad would put himself in harms way, when he is her only living family member, but I guess that just adds to the story.
Initially Dru annoyed me, I don’t know exactly what it was but by the end of the story she’d grown on me. Graves on the other hand, although wise beyond his years, was one of the reasons I kept reading. Somehow the dynamics of their relationship or duo, call it what you will, it works. Overall characterization was notable.
The is novel is a supernatural overdose, werewolves, vampires, zombies, leprechauns… okay I made the leprechaun part up, but still wow! All my favorite creatures of the night in one tightly bound volume. This is unquestionably a world that I’ll want to revisit.

Is this the first in a series or just a standalone?

I want to read this one too! I saw it at the store and I just love the cover! It looks like it's taken from a movie
Awesome review. I want to read this sometime. It sounds like a great read
I loved your review. I recently read this too –I thought it as just me that was initially annoyed with Dru, so it made me feel better to read that someone else felt the same way. I came around though and by the end, was really wanting the next one. Graves was the BEST!
This sounds awesome. Great review.
Okay, so, I checked this book out from the library a few days ago. I just finished Blood Promise and was looking through my TBR pile for another book to read. I decided to read Strange Angels. Before I start reading I decided to come here and read your review on it.
Great review! It's made me want to read it more! I've heard a lot of great things about it. I'm glad you liked it.
