REVIEW: “Saving Sam” by Nikka Michaels
ABOUT:
Ezekiel has been a Watcher angel for thousands of years, and now he wants a promotion to Guardian status. When he shows up for a meeting at Purgatory, Inc. Zeke gets the shock of his lifetime when his boss and Higher Power commands him to bring back Azazel, Death’s assistant.
Throw in the devil, a possible apocalypse, and a partner in archangel Sam and Zeke might get more than just his Guardian angel wings.
REVIEW:
This short story is mindless entertainment – and I mean that statement in a POSITIVE way. Look, sometimes, I need a story that is not too heavy, not too serious … a story that’s just cheeky & fun, that can make me chuckle or giggle along the way. Saving Sam is exactly that.
The plot is exactly what is written in the book summary – but the idea of God being a Hippie, and Lucifer is in female form called Lucy, as well as quite a number of wonderful one-liners and banter exchanged between Zeke and Samael were amusing. There were some sexy times though — even if the reason for Zeke and Sam having sex was, well, a bit on the silly side (but it matched the tone, so I wasn’t exactly complaining *haha*). I couldn’t help enjoying the world that Nikka Michaels created here.
I was a bit annoyed with the ‘twist’ in the end though – I thought it was a rather cruel thing to do to Zeke. No matter what the reasons, I would throw tantrums!!
Bottom line, if you want something fun in between, this could be an option.
