Lots of information, but where are the illustrations?

Call me crazy, but a few pictures would have made a world of difference in this book. That's the ONLY complaint I have about this easy to read, easy to carry, easy to love book on angel errata.My boyfriend knows about my freakish obsession with angels, and suggested I buy this. He was actually right for once! I found that this book has tons of information, summarized neatly and cross referenced with different spellings of names (in case you're hung up on one in particular). I liked that the author bolded certain important passages, so you knew just what to look for when skimming.I also liked that the author included next to the names of the angels the meaning of their names (as in Naamah means 'pleasurable'). The appendix and bibliography actually have a ton of information in there as well (just in case you weren't looking!). Cross referenced are all the mentions of angels from the Bible, Koran, and other religious works, as well as a listing of Renaissance paintings dealing with angels.Well worth the money.

A Wonderful Guide to the World of Angels

Both informative and readable, this book is a wonderful guide to the world of angels. It covers the topic from all angels and viewpoints, and is superbly cross-referenced. Great Book!

A comprehensive and valuable reference work.

This is a comprehensive reference tool for the study of angels and their missions. It is a valuable companion for seminary students, ministers, and writers interested in the subject of angels and wanting to learn more about them. A valuable addition to everyone's library.

A companion for all other angel books and an excellent read!

What a great companion to all your other angel books. This encylcopedia is well-researched, easy to read and comprehend. It will assist you while trying to understand all the other angel books out there. And it's a great read on its own!

Everything you want to know about angels in one place.

This book is an excellent reference tool to keep on your shelf. (Although the cover is really attractive and you might want to display it on your coffee table too!) Especially if you read a lot of new age or spiritual books, you'll find that everything you want to look up is in this book. The author has done all the work for you, including a ton of cross-references. I definitely recommend this encyclopedia of angels.
