They say that long ago, there was a rebellion in Heaven. That an army of angels sought to seize the throne, and were cast down into the pits of Hell in punishment. Those are the affairs of angels, and everything would have been fine if they’d kept them to themselves. But there’s been another uprising, and another Fall. Cast down to Earth, the rebel angels ravaged the globe in an orgy of sin and violence as they indulged in their newfound freedoms. Their new home is the Perch, a black, towering monstrosity that blights what’s left of the New York City skyline.
Life inside the Perch means you watch your tongue, if you’re a servant. Jana has lived there since she was a child, and now she’s found herself thrust into the middle of angelic politics. Some of them want to torture her, just for the fun of it. Others say they want to protect her. And Rhamiel, a charismatic and powerful angel with one of the few faces that wasn’t burnt and scarred by the Fall, is relentlessly pursuing her affections.
Life outside can be just as dangerous. Strange things fell with the angels and wander the countrysides. The roads are filled with Vichies, cringing humans who’ve thrown their lot in with their oppressors and won’t hesitate to take advantage of the weak. But some are still fighting, including William Holt. He leads a small cell of fighters, searching for a way to strike back against the angels without getting themselves killed in the process. And all around, the fallen angels inflict their savageries on the dwindling remains of humanity, enjoying every vice they’d been forbidden during their long centuries of service.
Why did the angels fall? How will humanity survive when its guardians have turned against them? And can love between an angel and a human redeem them?Scroll up and click the buy button to find out, or read for free on Unlimited.

They Who Fell eBook Kevin Kneupper
When I was young, going to the Catholic church, I thought that angels were real physical beings that could appear at any time, that heaven was just as much of a physical place as was my grandma's house. Over the course of my life, my views have changed a lot.... but what made They Who Fell so interesting is that he took that idea of the angels being real physical beings and ran with it and created an incredibly gripping story!This book has two stories that merge into one.... one story is a young woman named Jana that lives in a tower for the angels. She is a slave, as are all the other humans who reside there. While she is serving the angels we get to see very different sides of them. And just like humans, there seem to be some of them that are good and some that are evil. But Jana has been trained to do what she is told to do without question, and she has a teeny rebellious streak in her. Her story as she gets to know a couple of the angels was riveting. The first time she saw a garden and the stars was my favorite scene....
The other story was about a group of humans that are on a mission to kill the angels that have slaughtered and enslaved the human race... fighting their way across the land while they plot to take them all out.
This was an really unique story and really fun to read. The ending was absolutely epic and left you really wanting more. I will be on the look out for more from this author.
I would recommend this book to anyone!

They Who Fell eBook Kevin Kneupper Reviews
This was a speculative purchase, and I'm sorry to say it wasn't worthwhile. There is far too much descriptive narrative and explanation - I'd call it over-explaining - often of relatively minor matters, and far too little dialogue and action.
The constantly alternating POV was also irritating and disruptive to the flow of the story, not allowing for any sort of character devlopment. The result was that all characters were shallow and I really didn't feel any sort of connection to them.
By the time the back story was revealed, I'd pretty much lost interest in the characters and the plot, and was skimming, hoping for something - anything to happen. Seriously, I was checking how much of the book was left because I kept thinking that the author needed to get to the point, and soon.
If you like stories about fallen angels - and their offspring - then I'd recommend The Irin Chronicles by Elizabeth Hunter. The quality of the writing greatly surpasses this.
Interesting concept but to much "tell" and not enough "show." This book needs less narrative and more dialogue. It needs a better presentation of the back-story, and frankly, needs to give me someone to care about.
I wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered this book, but I had enjoyed Kevin's Cade Crowley series and I liked the synopsis, so I decided to give it a read. I couldn't be more pleased with taking a chance on a new series! This book is different from the typical fantasy fiction and paranormal fiction that I read, in that angels have fallen to earth, but they are not the benevolent creatures we have come to know and love. They are disgraced and disgraceful. They are like children in so many ways, spoiled and mercurial. They are scarred inside and out and they have taken over the world. The people the angels once served, as miracle-workers, guardian angels, and warriors, are now their slaves, servants to their whims and their desires, which range from degradation to physical torture. Some of the angels are worse than others, but none of them seem to have much tolerance for the human race in general. A large chunk of humanity has thrown in its lot with the angels, in exchange for certain freedoms. These Vichies, as they are called, made up of the dregs of what is left of society, provide the angels with goods and a continued supply of servants. They rally under a white flag, which I found particularly amusing since white is so indicative of innocence and peace, and they do not hesitate to betray and/or kill their own kind if they think it will gain them something.
I found the story incredibly fascinating, as seen through the eyes of an innocent young woman who was brought to the angels' stronghold, The Tower, too young to even remember what it was like on the outside. Jana is swept up into the angel's politics and intrigues, as well as the higher caste of servants she has to deal with once she is taken from the kitchens to the upper levels to serve a half-mad angel named Nefta. Jana becomes captivated with the angel Rhamiel who appears to be different than the other angels, as he also becomes captivated with her. However, the book doesn't solely focus on Jana and The Tower. Human rebels are fighting back against the angels and their plans involve bringing down The Tower.
I truly enjoyed reading this book. It is vastly different from any of books I have read to date. Humans tend to think of angels as benevolent beings...and they were...but when they "Fell," they seemed to have lost their compassion for the human race. The author created an angelic caste system of sorts, as well as his own idea of angelic politics. I was enthralled and couldn't help but barrel through the book to see where the next page took me.
The only problem I have with Kevin's books is that there seems to be a lack of decent character descriptions. If he never described them, that would be fine because I have a vivid imagination, however I'd be 3/4 of the way through the book and then realize, "Oh he just said that angel has long, blonde hair," when I had been picturing that angel with short, dark hair. I personally do not feel that character descriptions are a waste of space...I actually feel that they are vital to telling the story. Being a visual person myself, I need those descriptions, because I play out the story in my head while I am reading it...and getting a description rather late in the game throws off my entire mental scenario.
This book is the first book in a 3-book series.
I really did not think I would like a book about this, however I was not disappointed. This book gripped me from the first chapter . Jana is a slave to the Angels who fell and live at the Perch. One Angel starts to pay special attention to Jana. Rhamiel is one of the highest angels at the Perch , he notices Jana but isn’t sure what to make of it at first. There is also a group of humans who want to kill the angels . This story is filled with so much , it keeps you on your toes page after page. I can’t even begin to tell you how great it is .
When I was young, going to the Catholic church, I thought that angels were real physical beings that could appear at any time, that heaven was just as much of a physical place as was my grandma's house. Over the course of my life, my views have changed a lot.... but what made They Who Fell so interesting is that he took that idea of the angels being real physical beings and ran with it and created an incredibly gripping story!
