Review Summaries
"Alleluia, the former Archangel and Oracle, is supposed to have hidden a series of files that reveal that Jovah is only a machine and not the protector of Samaria. Tamar, an insurgent, believes that she can find them. Jared, an angel and the leader of the Host at Monteverde, assists her search, not to find the Files which he doubts exist, but to protect her from Bael, the Archangel who is hunting down the members of Tamar's sect."
