Brethren Beginnings Volume 1 by Deena Remiel
Review by Anne
** SPOILER ALERT **
The Brethren, who are they and why are they here on Earth? Well let me tell ya!!
Brethren Beginnings will deliver you into the origins of these magnificent, larger than life heavenly Angels who have manifested here on earth for eternity.
When we as humans for various and different reasons began to separate ourselves into groups of “good” and “evil”, is when the Brethren first appeared on Earth. It wasn’t an entrance by grand fireworks of awesome brilliance, by no means what so ever!!! They simply and quietly appeared which a body just like yours and mine. (well almost)
They knew instantly and with an understanding of their purpose, and that Earth was now their home, that they were here to heal, to protect and to fight for those here.
The Brethren knew of each other before becoming individuals here on Earth; working together to fight against the evil, which now gaining a lot of power. To threatened to corrupt the human race in whole.
The Brethren each had their own reasons for accepting and agreeing to their angelic mission.
In The Brethren there are 9 Angels in all, (3) Saviors, (3) Protectors, and (3) Warriors. Each group had their own orders and powers but never, never crossing over without great penalty and also facing possibility to be banished.
The SAVIORS: have the powers to heal those of the human race with severe injuries, and those who were facing death way too soon.
The PROCTECTORS: are masters of working spells, performing great magic and creating “talismans” for the safety and protection of us. (human race).
The WARRIORS: have strong minds for all levels of warfare, but their weapon of choice is their “blessed sword”.
But be warned!! There is a catch, in order for any of The Brethren to perform or engage in their missions they had to be called upon, being done through a prayer for help, or a desperate plea for the help.
So let the story begin: Enter Brethren Gabriel, who is a Protector Angel, his mission is to help a young man find the right path out of a corrupt world in which he worked. As the seeds to help/protect are laid the mission quickly escalades into one involving a group of about 20 people I need of protection/help.
Gabriel must eliminate the evil corrupt man that ruled/owned on people. Caleb is the one who sends out a desperate cry for help which enables Gabriel to help. He tracks down the evil man (Manny) responsible for putting these young people in danger and through hell. So much damage had been inflicted on all of them, a swift and immediate action was necessary to take out Manny. Having secured their safety, Gabriel calls upon an other Brethren, Raphael who is a Savoir Angel to heal the injuries, souls and the minds of those now in his care. He sets out to deal with Manny, and deal with him de does.
Fast forward: Enter Nathanael, who is a Warrior Angel, with his own mission of duties. He is called upon by Garrett Springer, the warden at Alpine State Penitentiary. Three inmates had escaped, but not before killing guards. They were the most dangerous of criminals with multiple homicides. (Jon, Sully and Daniel).
Jon was taken care of first, very quickly and permanently. Justice served, three innocence saved in the process. Raphael was called upon once more to cleanse and healed the minds damaged by the corrupt evil caused by Jon. One down two to go. Sully was next to be dealt with. Sully proved to be more difficult to track down. Although Nathanael tracked by his senses, he was finding it hard to get a good read on Sully. Due to the fact that Sully himself was a victim all his childhood, being told that he had an evil minds for the thoughts/feelings.
Tracked down to a cabin in the woods where two men were, Nathanael tried to stop Sully from killing the two men. Killing them for having/feeling the same way has he had all his childhood, but being told that they were evil thoughts and feelings. Nathanael was successful in saving the two men, but as he went to stop Sully from pouring oil and setting himself alight, the flame was lite. He wrapped his wings around Sully to put the flames out. Sully didn’t survive the burns, but instead of being condemned to hell, Nathanael chose to forgive Sully and gave him peace of mind, sending him into the light. Two down, one to go. Daniel was last.
Daniel was pure evil, with no conscience at all for the torture that he dealt to those in his way. With only one thought on his mind, to get away fast no matter what. Three innocent were at stakes this time. A set a twins and their mom. Knowing directly where to go. Daniel was dealt with swiftly and permanently, the three innocent lives saved.
Fast forward: Enter Cassiel, who is a Savior Angel who worked as a doctor a children’s cancer hospital.(I know I have been dragging this out but I will hurry) He’s partially fond of Jake. But there is one other child who had been sent home in the care of hospice, her name is Joy. Joy wasn’t terminally ill as thought by all the other doctors, but was possessed by pure evil and Satan. Cassiel has to save the girl as he does, but at what cost. Satan then goes after Jake and the others at the hospital that he had just left not to long before.
He arrives to find Jake possessed by evil, but he is much stronger than the others. Jake was able to fight off Satan’s pull on him, he warns Cassiel that evil has taken over the others and that he must work fast because they were coming for him… to hurt him.
Realizing that he was going to need a great deal of help with all the lives involved, Cassiel calls upon his fellow Brethren, six of them. Raphael, Zadkiel, Michael, Urie, Gabriel and Kemuel. Together they fought against the evil hold over them all. Winning of course.
I would recommend this to YA and above.
