The Trial of Fallen Angels by James Kimmel, Jr.
The Trial of Fallen Angels, by James Kimmel, Jr., is a surprisingly realistic and interesting take on the afterlife. Brek Cuttler, a young attorney, wakes up with no memory in Shemaya Station, which is many things, including the outer rooms of the courthouse of God. A mysterious man named Luas tells her she is now responsible for providing defense counsel to souls at the final judgment. The book travels with Brek as she tries to figure out where she is, who she was, and what her role is now. In the form of a narrative, Kimmel explores concepts that have stumped man through the ages, including the debate between revenge and forgiveness. The book is an interesting read. Recommended.
