Stairway To Heaven
by Alex Stevens
Genre: Fantasy
Synopsis
Corporal Jack Graven should be dead. Murdered by a vengeful angel at his own father’s funeral, Jack is resurrected and returns to life carrying a terrible secret: he is the Archangel Gabriel reincarnated.
Jack’s not the only one with secrets. His older brother, Lieutenant Colonel Tyler Graven “Demon of Kyoto”, has just inherited his father’s fortune and legacy as Lord of War, with no intention of stopping there: Tyler will someday rule the world.
The brothers reunite their elite military unit, “The Four Horsemen,” with Tyler’s longtime flame Colonel Diana Levitas and the mysterious Lance Corporal Jin Xialong. Together they seek to uncover the truth of Jack’s past life and propel Tyler to his impossible destiny.
Thrust into a supernatural war, the Gravens find salvation through the Black Muramasa, a cursed black katana and the only weapon that can destroy immortals. As they uncover more mysteries behind the ancient blade, they come face to face with the Devil himself, but in the most familiar of faces. Their pasts, presents, and futures all linked, the Four Horsemen must end the war once and for all to survive with their souls intact. Failing could mean the end of the world.
A follow up to the explosive first book in the Ballad of Fallen Angels series, “Sympathy for the Devil,” Book 2 is an action-packed, gun-slinging adventure that packs the punch of a military thriller with high-stakes supernatural intrigue.

Enjoy this peek inside:
“Make no mistake about it,” I continued. “You and your companions are caught in the middle of a war, a war of immortals. You need me just as much as I need you. As my disciples, the only change is your indebtedness to me. I would in essence be your master, and in return I will continue to offer my advice and protection. As it stands, I would say the two of you are quite indebted to me already.”
“What will we gain from this?” Jack asked. “I’ve never even considered the thought of pledging myself in return for information.”
“You gain an identity for yourself, and Tyler perhaps his soul. It will make sense once I’ve finished, this is for certain. You will also gain intimate knowledge regarding the immortals after your lives, but not without the assurance that I have my followers.”
Jack and Tyler faced each other then, seemingly sharing a silent moment of contemplation.
“Better the devil you know, little brother,” Tyler said at last.
“I tried walking away once, and it didn’t end well. He knew my name, a name I haven’t shared with anyone here,” Jack stated, turning in his chair to face Tyler. “I’m still alive, so I’d like the truth.”
“I guess we’re in, then.”
“Two,” I counted, displaying both fingers in the air. “Very well, then, my disciples. I will reveal everything you wish to know and more. The greatest story ever told.”
“Who are you really?” Jack asked.
“I am the fallen one,” I responded. “I am Lucifer.”

I rather like the whole idea of a vengeful angel.
It is something unique, right? In this series, angels and demons (often referred to as immortals) are only limited by their own desires and rationalization. I think this makes them more human.
Thanks for hosting!
Intriguing, unique and captivating. A creative story.
Thank you. Hopefully you get a chance to read it and enjoy it.

wow. that is quite a story. It must have been difficult to write! My guy (also a military veteran) would love this too between the fantasy and the military connection.
Hi Tracy, thanks! I’ve enjoyed it, but it has been a bit difficult at times. The first book in the series focuses more on the military aspect and the second book has more fantasy.
