With the romance ofTwilight, the suspense ofThe Dresden Files, and the delicious thrills ofTrue Blood, the enthralling saga of Magdalena Lazarus unfolds. Descended from the legendary witch of Ein Dor, she alone holds the power to summon the angel Raziel and stop Hitler and his supernatural minions from unleashing total war in Europe. The Nazis have fighters more fearsome than soldiers, weapons more terrifying than missiles, and allies that even they are afraid of SS werewolves; the demon Asmodel who possesses a willing Adolf Hitler, and other supernatural creatures all are literally hell-bent on preventing Magda from possessing the Book of Raziel, a magical text with the power to turn the tide against Hitler's vast war machine. Magda, young and rebellious, grew up in the cosmopolitan city of Budapest, unaware of her family's heritage. When her mother dies, Magda--ready or not--isthe Lazarus, who must face the evil that holds Europe in an iron grip. Unready to assume the mantle of her ancient birthright, but knowing that she must fight, she sets out across Europe searching for the Book. Magda is desperate enough to endanger her soul by summoning the avenging angel Raziel.  When she sees him in the glory of his celestial presence, her heart is utterly, completely lost... … (altro)

Eh. It's an okay story, but it didn't grab me, and isn't quite appealing enough to take up any more of my reading time. I read the first few chapters, and the last and just wasn't impressed. ( )

You would think any book that has Nazi werewolves would worth finishing. Unfortunately, this one has sat on my bedside table since April last year, unfinished. I made it to page 85, before putting it aside in boredom. Even the promise of a couple of young Jewish women, kicking scumbutt arse, and changing the course of history would be tantalizing. But the girls didn't capture me and even having the Angel Raziel come in on their side hasn't encouraged me to pick it up again. We'd been hoping that this might be an antidote to the Twilight frenzy the granddaughters are in, but I don't think it will capture their imaginations the same way. (shudder).

I really wanted to like this book, but....

I saw the author's Big Idea piece and immediately put it on my TBR list. It has an amazing premise, and she wrote very convincingly about it. However, after I started reading the actual book I put it down and could not bring myself to finish before it had to go back to the library. ( )

The premise made me really want to like this book - the Jewish history, the mythological foundation, and the strong role of women in the story both past and present. However, while I did like all these things about it, it didn't live up to my expectations. About halfway through I lost interest, and the writing, plot and characters didn't really do much for me.
