About this listen
She's the Queen of Hell. He's the Son of God. They'll end humanity... together.
Nyx is the ruler of the banished Angels. When her flock returns home, she's stuck on Earth with none other than the Son of God.
Surprisingly, God's son tells her he was tricked into sacrificing himself for a cause he doesn't believe in - mankind's redemption. As his mortal body dies, the Son of God offers the Queen of Hell a paradise on Earth if she completes a single mission: helping him obliterate humanity.
Nyx launches a 1,000-year campaign of violence, sex, and betrayal to force God's people to worship her instead. From the back streets of Jerusalem to the Pope's bedchamber, Nyx and her companions work to destroy the worshippers of God.
What Nyx doesn't realize is that her arrangement with God's son isn't as simple as it seems. The Son of God has plans that nobody will see coming...
Plague of Angels is the first book in The Descended saga, a series of dark fantasy novels that provide a twist on an old story. If you like fantasy fused with religion, thought-provoking plots, and graphic violence, then you'll love John Patrick Kennedy's tale of the underworld.

Ever since, the land has belonged to man, and the oceans have remained an uncrossable hell, leaving the continent of Lok isolated.

Foreign armies clash relentlessly on streets laden with the bodies of innocents caught in the crossfire.

As his companions struggle to keep the city from destroying itself, Lenk travels to the Forbidden East in search of the demon who caused it all. But even as he pursues Khoth-Kapira, dark whispers plague his thoughts.

They're an iconic part of history's most celebrated birth. But what do we really know about the Three Kings of the Nativity, besides the fact that they followed a star to Bethlehem bearing strange gifts? The Bible has little to say about this enigmatic trio.

The Gods are dead. The Magelord Salazar and his magically enhanced troops, the Augmentors, crush any dissent they find in the minds of the populace. On the other side of the Broken Sea, the White Lady plots the liberation of Dorminia, with her spymistresses, the Pale Women. Demons and abominations plague the Highlands. The world is desperately in need of heroes. But what they get instead are a ragtag band of old warriors, a crippled Halfmage, two orphans and an oddly capable manservant: the Grim Company.

An excellent read
A cold, dark tale of manipulation, betrayal, lust and surprisingly, love. The narration was excellent as well.

amazing story, basically the most badass dark female (most of the time) power protagonists you'll ever find. the story is very unconventional, basically Jesus is rather pissed off at God for being the sacrificial lamp and makes a pact with the queen of Hell Nix to get revenge on God. this book is very NSFW but Completely worth it. my only complaint is that it was released years ago and still has no sequel which is unfortunate as it ends on ONE HELL of a cliffhanger.

It's a good read. if violence and sex isn't your thing don't read it, if your very sensitive about religion, don't read it. in the end it's a good book.

Any additional comments?
mispronouncing the main name :/
i couldn't listen to it anymore. every time she pronounced "nYx" as "nix" my ears was hurting :/
besides that narrator is mediocre. story could be really cool i am guessing (seems like a nice setup) but narrator made it unpleasant to listen to.
