The Lowlands Of Heaven


An angel's unfinished mission on Earth, a young woman's yearning to be complete, the evil will of an emissary of darkness - these threads weave together where two worlds intersect in a magical tale of love and hope, resolve and commitment.

The Lowlands of Heaven by F. J. Dagg is a classic tale of Good vs. Evil, a glimpse into a world "halfway to Heaven," and a Christmas story. Haunting and lyrical, mystical and romantic, this masterwork of high fantasy will linger with readers long after they have read the final chapter. (excerpt back cover).

In this beautifully written story we are captured in the lowlands of Heaven which is between Heaven and Earth and we get to meet Laurel. Laurel is a High Order angel who is recovering from her time spent on Earth. The more time an angel spends there, the weaker they become. If they linger too long they will die. Laurel is an angel of music, the more she plays or hears it, the more it enables her to heal.

The trouble is, that Laurel must return to Earth to give her gift to Kate Bradford, the only survivor of an automobile crash that killed her parents leaving Kate without the ability to love. Yet how can she return to Earth long enough to find Kate before she succumbs to the sickness that may claim her life as an angel.

I received this book compliments of Pump Up Your Book Tours and F. J. Dagg for my honest review and fell in love with this story and the characters of Laurel and Kate. Seeing what a life would be like that struggles without love is difficult enough but when the enemy attempts to intervene it makes the story that much more believable. The purpose of birds is also used to convey they are messengers between the lowlands and earth to deliver requests or messages when people are unable to pray.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves fictional stories involving angels and God's purpose for them. You will come to see this as a classic tale like It's A Wonderful Life in a sense and will have you cheering for Laurel and Kate the whole way through. Remember to also grab some tissues as it will make you cry in the end. This one rates a perfect 5 out of 5 blue tipped stars and I can't wait for you to enjoy it as much as I did. I could not put it down until the very last word was read!
