Customer Reviews

All encompassing factual book on angels

I purchased four books on angels at the same time and this book was the most well-rounded, easiest, and most interesting to read. It covers the different duties and characteristics of the nine choirs of angels. It gives many incidents of encounters with angels experienced by people in the bible and by Catholic saints, as well as known appearances of angels over the centuries to crowds of people. It talks about guardian angels as delineated in the bible, and the three named angels; Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael. The second part of the book deals with the fallen third of the angels, Satan and his followers, not balking at describing their tactics and characters.

You'll Hear the Angels Sing

During the first half of this wonderful book, you will swear that you can hear the heavenly choirs. It is that beautiful. And the second half, where Ms. Cruz deals with their demonic counterparts, is as important as the first half is lovely. This is an important and beautifully written book. Pick up a copy and emerse yourself in its simple and compelling truth. Learn of the beauty of the spirit world and the terribly important role of Holy Church. God bless.

Excellent source

Joan Cruz has written an excellent and very useful book that one will keep referring to. She presents many examples from the lives of the saints on both the good and bad side of the angelic realm. All catholic clergy shouls read it as well as lay people.
