The Fallen and Leviathan are two books that flow greatly together.
When Aaron turns 18, he starts feeling and hearing strange things. He started by speaking and understanding other languages, including being able to hear and talk to animals. He discovers that he is the son of an Angel and a mortal making him what is called a Nephiline. He is not just a simple one, but he is the Chosen to release the fallen angels and help forgive their past sins so they can again be reunited and in good grace with God. It is not simple for a teenager to accept this news and he tries to ignore and avoid this supernatural ability that is entrusted in him.

There is a lot of action and the mythology of the Fallen angels is explained and made easy to follow. It is an exciting book with Angels as the main characters, that is entertaining and leaves you with enough questions to want to read the following book.

Synopsis: On his eighteenth birthday, Aaron begins to hear strange voices and is convinced he is going insane. But having moved from foster home to foster home, Aaron doesn't know whom he can trust. He wants to confide in the cute girl from class, but fears she'll confirm he's crazy. 

Then a mysterious man begins following Aaron. He knows about Aaron's troubled past and his new powers. And he has a message for Aaron: As the son of a mortal and an angel, Aaron has been chosen to redeem the Fallen. 

Aaron tries to dismiss the news and resists his supernatural abilities. But he must accept his newfound heritage -- and quickly. For the dark powers are gaining strength, and are hell-bent on destroying him....
