More Demon Goodness

I just finished Book Two of the Trilogy of the Fallen, "The Seven Deadlies." Greg Stolze continues to astound with his poetic paens of hope and redemmption and the dark depravities of both the human and divine heart. The story begun in "Ashes and Angel Wings" continues apace, though this time the focus is on the Devil Gaviel, Lord of the Summer Sun (instead of Sabriel and Hasmed), with Usiel and Avitu again bringing up the rear. There's again lots of juicy philosophical soul-searching and psychological observation that's my favorite part of Demon (one wonders if Ghosty is one of Mr. Stolze's alter-egos). Not much actually HAPPENS (relatively speaking), but then it is the middle part of a trilogy. One doesn't really mind, though, because Stolze is such a great writer.In the end, however, I didn't really enjoy it as much as A & AW. For some reason, I don't really like Gaviel. He says some good stuff, but he isn't quite sympathetic. But I don't really like Hasmed, either, so I'm not sure why that matters. Still, it's a good book and I'm very much looking forward to the conclusion and much more Demon fiction, or fiction of any kind, by Greg Stolze.A few nagging questions...What's in East St. Louis? A vamp, I presume, but I was thinking some other bit of WoD lore I'm not aware of might give the definitive answer.Where the people who held Rabbuddun (or whatever his name is) the demon hunters we're going to be seeing soon?What's Lucifer REALLY up to? Is the guy Usiel is encountering REALLY the Morningstar?
